It is a 3/32" Allen key drunkenbum, just had a look and it is a bit of a mess in there big blobs of hot glue holding the board in place, another board maybe reverse battery protection not got it out yet, a ripped insulator on one of the main wires a right dogs breakfast IMO. The chassis earth screw was dirty which would explain my battery life issues. At least the hot glue is self extinguishing, I'm going to strip it down don't want to put it back together with damaged insulator on the live wire. Now you have totally fecked it right up.... New fat daddy, cut an hole in it for a squonker I reckon.

You just need to disconnect the buttons and be genital with it glen, when I put it back I will extend the battery wiring so the reverse battery protection board can go below the DNA board, see photos previous post. It's the up & down buttons that are a bit in the way getting the boards in and out. Am I childish... I think you already know the answer and at least you can tell when the smellchecker is not making a monkey out of you

New fat daddy, cut an hole in it for a squonker I reckon. No, not damaged anything other that the head of one of the screws, I only pulled it out when I noticed the damaged insulation, bit not doing all that work just to put the clone board back. It will be much easier with a little longer wires, you see the screw hole nearest the middle - same design fault as your ZNA clone had.

Yep the same bad earthing letsavit, at least they wrapped it all in Kapton tape and have a reverse battery protection board (I assume, not going to test) it was just poor QC that let it down with the damaged insulation and bad design on the earthing, but that is not uncommon.
