Battery Cover for Remote Control Model UR5U-8780L (BrightHouse, Spectrum, Time Warner Cable)
[b] Details: [/b] I believe this battery cover will work for all cable box remotes beginning with model number UR5U-8780L. My remote is model # UR5U-8780L-BHC (BHC stand for 'Bright House Cable' which was recently bought out and is now called 'Spectrum'). Time Warner Cable remotes (the Clickr-5?) begins with the same number but ends in TWNC (UR5U-8780L-TWNC) and the replacement battery covers for it that I've seen online appears to be the exact same one as mine. This makes perfect sense since they are the same model remote, just made for different cable companies (hence the different suffix on the model numbers). My battery cover shows 'B023' followed underneath it by 'OH/S 4-1', but I've also seen a few for sale on E-bay showing 'OH/S 3-1' instead. I think these are virtually identical and the difference probably indicates an older revision or manufacture date. Description: After we broke our remote control battery cover and had to super glue it back together multiple times, I finally had enough and decided to design a new one that I could 3D print when necessary. What kept breaking most often on the original battery cover was the weak little plastic hook at the rear, so I made that part much stronger in my design (the spring clip was also broken but was mostly holding up after a repair with rubber glue). My first two prints went well except for the spring latch, which would break too easy since it was printed vertically on my PLA printer. The solution which seemed to make the most sense was to separate the spring clip from the rest of the battery cover and print it sideways for much more strength. Because of this, you will need to glue both parts together after printing. I believe I made it possible to do this and still retain a lot of strength since I made the clip insert into a 'pocket' in the battery cover. I provided 0.10mm of tolerance on each side of the pocket, but some minor filing/trimming may be necessary to ensure a good fit between both
