Parts for 33s - Matt Agajanian - 03-04-2020 12:31 AM
Hi all. In trying to remove the CR-2032 batteries, I removed the screws. Yeah yeah, I know, the screws don’t need to be removed. In so doing, the screws went missing.
1–Are the screws necessary for closing the battery compartment?
2–If so, could someone let me know where I can find them and what size should I look for?
3–If someone here has some, please let me know.
Thanks!

Thanx for the specs. So, I guess I do need the screws in place.

Hey Matt,
New member (old HP user) here.
Its been a while but for the 33s there are only the metal covers to slide off of the batteries, then they slide back on, prior to putting the plastic cover back in.
I found a random YouTube vid on the process:

Hope that helps
