Hello
On a "Cube Reaction Pro 500Whr" I would like to replace my current battery which is starting to discharge a little faster with a 625Whr battery, but to be able to use my 500 battery again, I ordered an adapter to be able to put it as if it were a 625.
- But I also have to move the lock and the battery holding mechanism upwards.
- On the Cube Reaction Pro it is planned there is already the location to place the lock for a 625 battery
- So I tried to move this lock by unscrewing screw B (in the photo), to screw the lock with screw D.
- But there you go, after unscrewing screw B, the lock does not come off and I wonder if there are not also screws that hold it behind plate C
- There you go, if someone in the forum has already done this manipulation would they be kind enough to explain to me how to actually do it. Thank you so much

I did it with mine a while back, so it is doable. Your basic premise of what to move is correct, but iirc there was a little more to move about too ... is there not a screw behind the rubber dome at C to remove the back plate as a whole. I seem to remember the whole plate came out to move the bits around.

good luck. it makes a difference to get the 625 batteries in .
