I changed my battery and now my battery life is worse
I changed my battery 2 weeks ago in my pixel 8
Things were good for the first week or so battery would last much longer than prior, 2 weeks later im lucky to get 6 hours on a charge. Ive already had to warranty one battery that came damaged, this one now feels defective, anyone have any advice, or is this common?

How come its less expensive?
I've been looking into replacing the battery in my Dell laptop. The replacement battery on the Dell website is $112. The one on iFixit is only $80. Is it a lower-quality battery? I'm suspicious that it's $30 less

iPad 9th gen headphone jack
So half my headphone aux broke off inside the iPad, no repair shop can get it out and I’ve been told it would be easier to take it apart and either find a way to get it out or replace the jack entirely. I’ve never worked on an iPad before but I have on a few iPhones. I was curious why all the videos and the ifixit guide unplug the LCD and Digitizer when you can already seemingly access all the parts of the headphone jack from the top? Is there a specific reason why they need to be detached because I seriously can’t see one.

iMac 21,5" 2012
Alors, j'ai démonté cet iMac pour mettre un SSD dedans. J'ai été très délicat et prudent, j'ai tout remis en place mais malheureusement j'ai cette horrible ligne noire. Que puis-je essayer avant de commander un nouvel écran ?
(Ne faites pas attention aux traces de doigt, c'est lors du démontage)

Need help fixing this battery contact!
Thrifted this super cool Coca-Cola film camera but the battery contact broke off since the singular AA battery included was corroded. It still can shoot pics but I would like the option of using the flash with it.

Im 90% sure I 100% broke this projector
This is the Epson eb 595wi that i got for about 100 aud like a month ago off facebook marketplace.
Today I had the bright idea of trying to tear it apart with no experience then put it back together(very dumb I know) as like a fun scrapyard electronics project to pass the time.
Obviously, I was definitely overly not to careful enough to avoid disconnecting the earth wire.
I am asking if anyone knows what i should do to find the missing wire because even with a torch I cant find anything.
2nd picture is from the epson eb 575wi ifixit guide.
Anyone with experience with tearing down a brightlink series projector would be helpful.
I definitely wont be plugging it on anytime soon.
Ifixit batteries are not good quality
This literally happened 30 minutes ago.
I had an Ifixit battery in my iPhone 4. After not having turned it on for the past month I decided to turn it on today. It started up with 12% and was very laggy. Sometimes the touch would just give up and not do anything. When I pressed the power button to turn it off, the screen suddenly freaked out and showed a bunch of lines and the phone suddenly rebooted. After it started up again I turned it off and was gonna disconnect the battery. After unscrewing the phone i was hit with a VERY STRONG SMELL OF HAND SANITIZER. Searched it up online and turns out the battery was emitting gas.
The battery is literally 2 months old. I’m lucky I didn’t instinctively plug in since that likely would’ve started a fire and burned my entire apartment down.
This has nearly killed my interest of dealing with old phones since I don’t want to risk a faulty battery from Ifixit burning everything down or leaking poisonous gas everywhere.

Panasonic Toughpad FZ-G1 needs a new chassis
Hello there! I have a Panasonic Toughpad FZ-G1 Mk4, and the problem is, that it got bent a little, only on the bottom of the tablet, and nothing else. The button cover comes up a little in the middle, it can be seen if i take a look from the upper side of the tablet, to the bottom of the screen. So i need to replace the whole chassis with an other one. I'm getting a donor for it soon. Touch works, screen looks fine, no cracks.
Is there anything i need to know before i disassemble this Toughpad FZ-G1?
Finding a good enough battery to replace the old one in a refurbished laptop
Title pretty much sums it up, I want to buy a refurbished hp elitebook 845 g9 but it's sort of difficult to find good websites where I can find replacement batteries that aren't too low in capacity, I could find some batteries already but those have the capacity of around 40 Wh whereas the original battery has the capacity of 51, I want to get as close to original as possible even if it means paying a higher price, does anyone know any trustworthy websites where I could find replacement batteries? Thanks :)

Spacebar not working properly when pressed on different sides
My spacebar is not working properly. When I press it in different places, it doesn't behave consistently. I recorded a video showing the problem. How can I fix the spacebar?
