Replaced my moto360 battery and random shut off is gone completely ;)

Starting in March this year, my moto360 randomly shutoff by itself regarding the battery % or temperature or watch face, I thought resetting the watch would solve the problem and it doesn't. Wearing for 4 months and had enough so I check this forum, seems like many people had this similar problem. It was suggested to replace the battery, then I spotted my watch back cover opens like clams so it must be swelling battery! Also the battery was swelling so bad, the screen turned yellowish and bluish.

Many people would buy replacement battery on amazon or ebay around $15. I live in Asia, definitely source from the Greater China, I shipped my watch to a vendor on taobao (like chinese ebay) paid $13 to have it installed and shipped, battery alone costs about $9 in China.

:good: With my facer installed and IWC facewatch, my watch is new like again and screen is back to normal. My advice, turn off the watch at night and don't put it on cradle unless the battery is out, this should keep the battery healthy.

If you have Taobao, try contact this guy
