- Sensor: Sensirion SHTC3 (to be confirmed)
While not the easiest device to open up, it is possible to disassemble the CGG1 with minimal to no damage.
- Gently heat the front lens of the device to soften the blue holding it to the body.
- After the glue has been softened, use a razor blade (or possibly a guitar pick) to 'slice' the glue the holding the lens to the rest of the body. Note: be very careful to not to damage the E Ink screen.
- After the lens has been removed, carefully slice any remaining glue between the rear and front clamshell. Once this glue has been cut through, a metal spludger can be used to release the 8 plastic clips holding the body together. Note: be careful to not damage the flat flex cables at the top/bottom of the case.
- The PCB is adhered to the reverse side of the front clamshell with double sided tape. The tape can be softened with heat while gently prying with a plastic spludger.
