Anyone got a clean way to pop the bottom cover off a Ninja Blast?

[Thomas Martinez]

Quick one for anyone who's poked around inside one of these Ninja Blast portable blender. After doing some research on how to get the bottom cover off the motor base to access the battery and read the serial number, there's limited information available. Most tutorials just tell you to "remove the bottom cover" but dont illustrate the steps to doing so.
As with most products, the bottom cover is the gateway to the rest of the device. If youre ever curious how to do this, has anyone done it before? Are the screws hidden beneath the rubber foot pad? Or is there a clip ring to consider in addition to the Phillips screws? I've seen mentions that small Phillips screws sits under the rubber pad but I'm not certain if that's all that's required to remove the bottom cover.
Is the charge port wire long enough to simply lift the bottom cover perhaps an inch or two? Or do you have to be ready to disconnect the wire from the charge port the moment you remove the bottom cover?
There seem to be limited information online regarding how to open these up so any information on how to do it safely (without breaking the plastic case) would be of great help to others in the same situation with these cheaper ($40) kitchen blender.

Did mine like 2 months ago. Peel the rubber foot pad off the bottom of the blender slowly. There's 4 phillips screws under the rubber pad. Once the screws is out, the bottom cover still feels like it should come off but there's a lip around the edge of the cover. Use a plastic pry tool to pop it off. There's no clip ring on these.
