Alright, here goes! First, make sure you have a Torx T8 or T9 screwdriver (depending on your controller model). Undo the screws on the back, remove the battery pack, and gently pull the halves apart. Easy peasy!

Simple: Battery pack out, all screws undone (including the hidden one), and then gently separate. Done and done.

Pro tip: There’s a hidden screw under the sticker in the battery compartment. Peel that up, and you’ll find it. Get a Torx T8 screwdriver to open it up!

Speaking from experience, you need a Torx T8 screwdriver. Take out all the screws (don't miss the one under the sticker in the battery compartment) and then carefully pry it open. Just take it slow!
