>he buys a new battery instead of replacing the cells inside his old batteryLet me guess, basic electronics is too intimidating for you?
little housefire never killed anyone
I’m not buying a spot welder. Fuck you.
>>106472017>investing time and money into a stinkpad accessoryi fell for the t420 meme. worst screen i have ever had the misfortune of using.
>>106472017I doubt the new cells + time and risk for doing this are that much of a saving over just buying chink batteries
>>106472406You're supposed to upgrade to an IPS screen. Also, the tablet PCs all have IPS displays by default.
>>106472406replace the screen you brainless nigger
>>106472459why would i replace the screen on a 20 year old piece of shit? i ended up selling it to some retard and buying something else.
>>106472436This.
>replacing the cells>not synthesizing your own electrolytei knew this board was full of mactoddlers but jeez
I've done this before, but it seems impossible to open up these batteries without ravaging the plastic enclosure.
>>106472602there's pic that needs reprogramming, it's not just throwing fresh cells inside.
>he re-cells his batteries instead of reverse-engineering the BMS and optimizing the voltage curves
>>106472475Nice convertible
>>106472602this, i tried it for my old eepc and gave up because everything i tried to do to open the plastic housing felt like i was going to break a bunch of those stupid one-way clipsthis was before 3d printing btw
>>106472017It's impossible to open the batteries in such a way as to be able to put them back together once you're done. I just tear them open and remove the cells. I throw away the damaged ones, and keep the good ones around. They are 18650s so I put them in my flashlights.I just order another chink laptop battery for 20€ or something.
>>106472475>shits up your performancerather do a 16:10 mod then i wouldnt care
The cells are the expensive bit anyway
what kind of autism is this?
>>106472017>she doesn't buy old laptop batteries by the pallet>she doesn't shuck the enclosures and test for good cells to make a 40kwh whole house battery>she doesn't wire points of entry with bad cells and keep a clacker in her sock at all timesNice hobby though
>>106472017how do I do this without killing myself?
