Unfortunately I have excessive battery drain in the left earbud of my Sony WF XM4 set. I really like these earbuds and I am going to at least try to fix them. Has anyone here done any thing like this before?
It makes sense, honestly, that the left runs down faster than the right, I use just the left at work all day everyday and only use the right at home maybe once a week. The left lasts 2.5 hours, the right lasts six or more.
I've seen individual buds for sale on eBay
I prefer to repair when possible to avoid ewaste but the XM4s are a bit older and you can probably snag a replacement bud for around the cost of repair
I saw a junk one on eBay for like $9. I was thinking of practicing on a junk one before attempting on my still nice-ish ones!
Yeah if you get lucky between both of the parts youll be able to make one work
Be mindful though most of the time they are defective it is the battery. Take my word, ive literally got a box full of defective units...
That box is really sad, to be honest. Never to be used again. I'm determined to not add mine to such a box lol. Thanks for the help.
