Hi this is a video to show the new James. I love the motor has NO solder, so I can easily swap to any motor I want!
Taking it apart!

Motor swap. My 3 years old son is there as well.

When i opened it, the yellow wire is disconnected. I have to solder it and now, when wheel turns every 6-8 times, it will speak out and no need to press the button.
Simple Battery MOD for CR123A [Get the part from a R/C toy's controller]

Draw back, CAD$5 per battery. I am going to use 14500 3.7v to test out.
