Whether it be electronics, automobiles or medical equipment, the manufacturers should not be able to horde "oem" parts, render your stuff useless if you repair it with aftermarket parts, or hide schematics of their products.

Rules:

  1. Keep posts on topic.
  2. Don’t make posts with link/s to paywalled articles as their main focus.
  3. No posts linking to reddit posts.
  4. Titles must include information on how old the source is in this format dd.mm.yyyy (ex. 24.06.2023).
  5. Please be respectful to each other.

You probably don't want to hear about 20% to 80% rule: "This rule says that when charging your phone's battery, you should only charge it between 20% and 80%. In other words, you should never let your phone's battery go completely dead (below 20%) or completely full (over 80%)."

i was under the impression that "new battery technology" had us done with that sort of thing? tis a bummer because i don't really see how i can wake up in the middle of the night to unplug the thing.

but i really appreciate the advice. i am definitely interested in extending my battery life. 👍
