I understand that the battery isn't soldered anywhere. I've removed the battery. I'm saying that the entire piece of hardware that the battery goes into isn't soldered down on the bottom end. I'm under the impression that the gold tab i'm talking about isn't visible on yours because it is soldered to the board. If i had a smartphone or a camera I would take a picture but unfortunately i do not.

Thanks for the help though.

Thanks for the quick replies.
I thought that was how it was supposed to be done but i was being a bit too gentle. The other question still stands though. Rephrasing the question: if you look at your smart card is there solder connecting the gold tab, coming from the bottom of the battery slot, to the card itself?

Hi everyone,
I'm having an issue saving songs with LSDJ on my newly purchased EMS GB 64Mb Smart Card from Kitsch-Bent. As I'm sure many of you will tell me this is most probably a problem with the SRAM battery. I'm having trouble getting it out though because it seems as though the battery housing is only attached at the top (top with respect to the top and bottom of cart).
I guess my question really is if my battery housing is supposed to be like this or if it is defective. If the former is true, how do i get the battery out without damaging my cartridge.

Thanks!
