Gentlemen,
I have successfully swapped out my battery in my Nvidia Shield Tablet K1! I was so excited about doing it! I wanted to get some practice soldering, as this was my first time, so I tried it out while swapping this battery here. I don't think my job was great, just adequate. I'm going to document the process here so that you guys who want to try can benefit. :good:
Without further adieu....
Since I couldn't post what I wanted to here, I did the write up on Google Photos instead. Here's the link to the pictures and my instructions to go along with them.

I'm a little disappointed that the cells don't hold advertised charge. Take a look at my picture here from AccuBattery with the "new" swapped battery installed. It's basically only 83% effective out of the box.
Please give me a thumbs :good: up here or send me any gratitude if you felt this post has helped you in anyway. I really like this community. :laugh:
Shoot me any questions you may have on my battery swap on this thread here.
Cheers!
