You could look into replacing the battery. The size if I remember correctly is gn344658 (3.4mm thick by 46mm wide by 58mm long). One acquaintance of mine purchased a replacement battery for their Mini from AliExpress (searched on kobo mini battery 1000mah). I don't have the link to the one they purchased but looked very much like the one at https://www.aliexpress.com/p/tesla-l...05002993072481 for $6.99 Cdn.

I have seen reports of people using a 404050 battery which is slightly thicker at 4.0mm but narrower and shorter at 40mm x 50mm. One example from Amazon.com can be found at https://www.amazon.com/AKZYTUE-1200m.../dp/B07TVDMTPF for $10.09 US. Though since I geolocate to Canada, that price may be very inaccurate.

As usual, double check the shipping charges. We'll sell you the battery for $10 but charge $22 for shipping.

While I was looking at the specs of the battery I removed and reconnected the battery cable a couple of times and got the device working perfectly. Thanks a lot for your help!
