It depends what you did to it.
Repairability usually hinges first on ability to open the device in a non-destructive way. Some devices use a lot of double-sided sticky tape. If you have a supply and the willingness to clean up the original tape and install new tape, that's not a problem. For many devices it's just a question of working a guitar pick around the edge. Finding an exact battery replacement can be a problem. In the past batteries were connected with standard pin/housing connectors. Now they use teensy-tiny "mezzanine" connectors. Those are those orange flex cables with a silver plate on top that snap in. In worst case you can buy raw cells and reuse the BMS PCB, flex, mezzanine. But don't do that unless you know what you're doing and are a good handworker. Shorted Li-ion batteries can be dangerous. Then there are button failures. In worst case you can replace them with something that does the job but is not a physical match. |

I don't know how I missed this, but there is a Firehose loader for QCS2290 (Leaf2, Poke5).
