After several years of use, the battery in my beloved kindle touch is dying and it can no longer hold a charge.
According to
ifixit, it should be a fairly easy procedure to replace the battery. Unfortunately Amazon does not appear to sell kindle batteries. However a google search turns up a website called
newpower99.com which offers replacement batteries for $24 plus shipping. Has anyone here had experience with them in the past?
