    Anker Q30 not charging properly. Is a replacement battery available?

    My Anker Q30 is not charging properly. No matter how long I charge it, when I turn it on I get the message "Battery low" and it is less than a year old. Is there some way to replace the battery, or will it be easier sending it to Anker for a fix? I think it should still be under warranty.
