Good battery, better than the original.
My JBL Charger 2 speaker is many years old, the original battery lasted about 4 years, I bought this battery about 6 years ago and I thought that the speaker had finished breaking down, but I wanted to try and bought the same battery again and when I replaced it it came back life. The battery simply reached its end of life and was completely inflated. I hope the speaker lasts a long time because it has very good quality manufacturing materials and the sound is very good.

Another electronic device not going to a landfill
Planned obsolescence is morally bankrupt, but that's par for the course. The replacement wasn't difficult, just a little tedious. There's absolutely NO REASON why JBL couldn't have designed this unit such that the battery was easier to replace (in fact, given the way it was designed, they would have SAVED money during manufacturing as such a design would have saved on labor costs), but of course, instead of selling new batteries, they'd rather make more profit off of selling you an entirely new device. Why? There's nothing wrong with it other than the battery reaching the end of its life, and I don't like the form factor of the new Charge 5 as it's much larger than the Charge 2+. Anyhow, glad this battery exists. I can now get another 9 years or so out of my Charge 2. BTW, there's been some issues with other batteries having an incorrect polarity, this one was wired correctly right out of the box.

Perfect replacement battery at very reasonable cost.
Perfect replacement battery for my JBL Charge 2+. Many batteries available on Amazon to choose from with this one being the most reasonably priced. I watched the YouTube video by “Chilled PI” that provided all the steps necessary to make the battery replacement easy including the warning about matching the polarity of my existing battery. Took me less than 15 minutes to install the new battery and put all the pieces back together. Too early to give anything more than 3 stars for Battery Life but definitely 5 stars for everything else.Just went back and reread description provided by Seller. Please note, NO installation tools provided with MY purchase but wasn’t expecting any so no issue for me. Small flat blade and Phillips screwdriver is all that is needed.

Polarized plug backwards on mine too
Like a lot of reviews I read,the black and white wires were backwards on mine also.Being the engineer that I am (and I am one). I just forced the polarized plug on backwards. Problem solved. Granted I may regret this later but I wasn’t going to waste too much time on this.On the pro side the battery works well. I have at least as much battery life as the original.Update: I changed my rating from 3 to 4. This battery actually last longer than the original one.

Works great!
My JBL Charge 2+ was not holding a charge or was able to play with the power cord. So i found a replacement cord and that did not solve the issue. It would die on me when i was running it off the power cord. I had been reading on how to replace the battery. Alot of articles with chinese battery's that had the wires backwards. needless to say, this one is wired correctly! installation is a bit of a chore, having to take it apart to replace. lots of little screws. but its worth the hassle to not have to shell out for a new speaker.

Connector wiring reversed!!
The mating connector was wired incorrectly, with the red (+) and black (-) wires swapped. Not a trivial task at 68 to release each wire connector. After repopulating the connector properly everything appears to be fine.

Waste of money!
The battery did not retain charge from the beginning and completely died few months later.Do not waste you money. Very poor quality cells.

Perfect replacement, JBL Charge 2.
Awesome! Zero complaints. I was initially worried b/c I read reviews about similar batteries having reverse polarity but no, this battery is a perfect replacement. I have a JBL charge 2 and almost threw it away when the battery died (no sound from unit and battery indicator always low). My speakers work like new! Yay!Tips for replacing:-Get a small screwdriver set.-Use a flat head to gently pry across the bottom mesh, lift and pull off the mesh covers on both sides.-Using a phillips head, unscrew the white battery cover, 2 screws. Remove the white battery cover. The cover is attached with dbl sided tape. It takes some gentle pulling and prying along the edges to remove it. (Note the side with the wires on the battery).- Unscrew the subwoofer bumper on one end, 4 screws. (the end where battery wires connect).- Unscrew the subwoofer cover, 4 screws. (Under it is the terminal connecting the battery).- Disconnect the battery terminal and take out the battery.- Pick off the black tacky stuff and roll it into a ball. (Reapply it when you put the new battery in. It fills the space where the battery wires enter the unit.)-Install new battery. Good time to test the unit before reassembling.I estimate about 15min to install. Have fun.
