Now I get to try the iFixit kit. First time I’ll be fighting a glued battery. Can’t wait.

    Not sure of the exact science of it, but cheap aftermarket batteries seem to do it way faster than original equipment so there seems to be a connection to the quality. I’ve seen pillowfication rip open more than a few laptops and phones causing huge damage. I suppose the alternative is explosive fire though.
