Lithium Ion Batteries Anonymous 11/27/2021 (Sat) 19:48:57 No. 6405
I fucking have lithium ion batteries so fucking much. Every god damn device on the fucking planet now has some stupid fucking soldered in lithium ion battery instead of just letting me slot in my own batteries. So now whenever I buy something as stupid as fucking small electric screwdriver I have to account for the fact that when I leave it on the shelf for a couple years and pick the thing up the cheap chink shit battery inside it will have killed itself and made the thing fucking useless. I can't even count the number of times I've picked up an electronic device with one of these useless fucking things inside them only to discover it died and is now a fucking paperweight unless I go onto ebay and comb through a bunch of shitty batteries to find the bizarre form factor they used in that specific device only to have to fucking rip the entire thing down and solder in an entirely new battery to use a basic fucking electronic. Why the fuck can't retards just let me use replaceable standardize batteries in devices. I DON'T WANT TO RECHARGE MY SHIT WITH A USB CABLE JUST LET ME PUT BATTERIES INTO THE FUCKING DEVICES.
I hope you're using a special cable that you've bought with the phone ?
nothing stopping you from buying a battery holder and ducttaping it to your device
>>6424 Nothing stops me from soldering in a new battery either besides that fact that's a massive fucking waste of time and I shouldn't have to do it in the first place.
>>6405 >Why the fuck can't retards just let me use replaceable standardize batteries in devices. Well, not to state the obvious, but it's all about money. >The batteries died, so now it's time to throw the device away and buy a new model I hate it too anon, but for many things you can still buy a model that has replaceable batteries, you just need to do some research first. I bought a new digital camera a few years ago and replaceable batteries was one of my requirements

>GBC can run for 15-20 hours on a pair of rechargable AAs from 2003 >OG GB can run for up to 30 hours on the same batteries depending on the game >both systems' power supply ports are solely used for powering the GB without charging anything reducing to possibility of spontaneous battery combustion to near zero >hyper-advanced soydung cattlexy SS 6000000 with a state of the art non-replaceable lithium battery derived from the finest in Afro-Asiatic slave labor dies after 7 hours of non-stop shitposting and has a random chance of starting a BLM protest when plugged into its mystery meat USB-C power supply I hate it.
>>6405 >Every god damn device on the fucking planet now has some stupid fucking soldered in lithium ion battery false you can buy smartphones and handheld game consoles with removable lithium ion batteries you can buy cameras, wireless gamepads, hair clippers, and many other things with AA or AAA battery slots
>>6440 >autistic retards first encounter with a hyperbolic statement
>>6405 Just replace the battery packs with a removable battery adaptor. Or better, create a replaceable battery pack to charge your usb-chargeable devices. Using USB-cabled lithium ion battery packs is useful if you want to keep a device charged for constant use. Or when you go outdoors to just take 1 powerbank / solar panels with you instead of a truckload of leaking batteries.
>>6441 >hyperbolic retards first encounter with an autist did you forget where you are?

>>6438 >hyper-advanced soydung cattlexy SS 6000000 with a state of the art non-replaceable lithium battery derived from the finest in Afro-Asiatic slave labor dies after 7 hours of non-stop shitposting and has a random chance of starting a BLM protest when plugged into its mystery meat USB-C power supply ROFLMAO!!!!! <FWIW de-googled phones have much longer battery life due to not constantly being part of the botnet.
>>6405 Sadly, anon, the USB form-factor is more universal than any wall outlet is. Also, lithium batteries last longer. Really, the problem is that the fuckers who make lithium batteries generally WANT to make the stupid form-factors in order to make the company unable to find a new supplier.
>>6454 >lithium batteries last longer. longer than what? you know they make lithium AAs and AAAs right anon?
>>6455 Longer than Alkalines. You are in a very precarious position: Custom batteries allow you to emphasize aesthetics, while allowing you to claim that your device produces less garbage (though it's custom Li battery probably doesn't have enough information on it to be recycled). Replaceable batteries are more convenient for the consumer, but make Liberals (who buy things: conspicuous consumers) cry. And, I can't even imagine the nightmare of trying to recharge random replaceable batteries. Let's just be real: poor niggers are more likely to have a USB-C charger than rechargeable batteries. Owning rechargeable batteries takes planning for the future, and niggers can't plan for the future: that's why they use the charging cable that works NOW and makes the phone work NOW.
>>6405 theyre easy to replace theyre almost all 3.7v, I have a bunch of phone batteries I save just for replacing only problem is when the device doesnt have a connector for the third pin and only +- cuz then you need to figure out if its a fuse or just a temp out , you can just solder it to + to complete the circuit but if its a fuse then it will blow as soon as you finish a full charge and kill the battery, no idea how to tell if its fused until it blows but luckily theyre uncommon, most are cheapo chinkos
>>6425 why not? i soldered lipo to my old psp and it was best decision i ever made. so many hours of gameplay that puts steam deck to shame
>>6405 Have you considered making your own technology, my guy? Those are just the mutterings of a tech-slave who is incapable of providing for himself.
>>8541 WOAAAAAH i putted some caps on a pcb and its now a product!!!! where is the surface that youll be touching for 24/7 with sweaty fingers? left one looks nice tho
>>9353 I don't like the consumerist part of keyboardfags either, but even this thing could have a case made for it. I guess it's that last 20% of the project taking 40-60% of the time for it to look "professional" and they can't be arsed. Besides that: I hate the obsession with keycaps and switches to the exclusion of actually bothering with the important concepts: key arrangements, height-profiles - maybe even a completely new input system of which they keyboard is only a fraction. Left doesn't look very usable, good luck doing your inputs on that keyboard, I'd much rather have a "chunky smartphone" that I can hook up a keyboard to and maybe some kind of chorded interface/case for mobile use And maybe a touchscreen too, but now it's almost just a smatphone (albeit being properly built and servicable and open and also just running "mainline linux" instead of the fetid dumpster fire that is android would make a huge difference already, even if it's just a differently constrained smartphone.
