I've only had three ereaders fail me out of more than a dozen. The original Nook died a silent death and could not be recharged. The Irex DR800 battery died (could not hold a charge). A seller on ebay sold me a close fit battery replacement, and that's still working to this day. A Kindle DXG died recently, and I ordered a replacement battery on ebay from a seller in NJ. I was a little lax on keeping every device charged. That can be a sure death for some readers, but the Sony's seem to be the least sensitive to a full discharge. Hope my two Kobos survive the Coronavirus and its aftermath. When we all wind up in caves, I'll need them for the last book I'll ever read. So many books, so little time.
