Introduction
The Creative Zen Vision W was a very popular media player before they were discontinued. Since the media player is pretty old, its batteries may not be able to keep up anymore and may die as well. However, it may be slightly difficult to take the old battery out of the player itself, so that's where this guide comes in. This guide allows you to remove the older battery for replacement in the Creative Zen Vision W. Make sure to follow the step-by-step instructions carefully.

Can’t find a replacement battery nor the amp hours or wattage etc.. I’d even be ok with building a new housing to hold a larger battery, but I need the specs… I’ve got a vaccum table and can make a larger case to hold the battery.. But dang I’ve got to know how much power to provide to the unit and at how fast!
