Well that wasn't so successful.
I lifted one terminal of said battery, ensured was fully clear of the pad and solder below and waited a full ten minutes (it was more in the end). Reconnected in one clean move, soldered. All stable.
Put the switch back into position, it has three test cameras on...
Yes, a back-up battery with bonded tags. I did give it a brief short but not enough, everything remained. I didn't want to kill the little soul with a full-on 10s short. Looks like I'll be doing soldering iron surgery on it and get it disconnected fully.

Thanks, and now I must remember to double-check that in the future! Unfortunately, this one doesn't have such a reset button (nor hole in the case).

First post, hope it's okay to post a query like this.
I've got my (IP) system up and running (mostly on the floor but some connected over my network).
Can I now change the main system (admin) password (for something stronger) and let it propagate through to each connected camera ?
