minus-squareBigPotato@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·12 days agoReplaceable vs “easily replaceable”
minus-squareObi@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·11 days agoI guess we could use the term “swappable” here as a distinction.
minus-squareBigPotato@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·11 days agoI’ll accept that compromise. Now I’m more curious if the batteries are hot swappable though. It’d probably cause some chaos with the battery indicator but just making me think…
minus-squarelightnsfw@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·11 days agoWouldn’t the battery indicator already be fucked because of this? Do those cells match what it came with?
minus-squareCarbonatedPastaSauce@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·12 days agoThe logic here is astounding.
minus-squarecm0002@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·12 days agoIg, but you can expect a Li-ion to last about 2-3 years, it’s not that much of a chore to open it up every 3 years, especially after the first time
minus-squareteije9@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·11 days agowhy should you open it up again, instead of just charging/replacing the repalceabke batteries
minus-squareapemint@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·11 days agoBecause they’re ugly, bulky and inconvenient as fuck.
