Galaxy S23 Ultra: Broken battery pull tab; Safe ways to pry out battery?

Tue, 18 Aug 2026 21:52:49 -0700

I tried replacing the battery using the iFixit kit (without isopropyl alcohol). Whilst trying to pull out the old battery, the blue pull tab snapped, and I’m a bit hesitant to use a prying tool.

I’ve closed everything back up for now and will buy a bottle of isopropyl alcohol.

Could I get some tips on prying out the battery safely without damaging it?

Microsoft Surface Pro 11: Will the Surface Pro 11 5G OLED panel work in the Intel/Business Model

Tue, 18 Aug 2026 21:52:27 -0700

Hi,

I have a Surface Pro 11 for Business, Model 2103 (Intel Core Ultra 7), with the original Samsung OLED panel marked ATNA30DW02-0.. The Surface Pro 11 OLED Screen is out of stock, but the Surface Pro 11 5G OLED Screen is available.

Can anyone confirm if the Surface Pro 11 5G OLED Screen is compatible with Model 2103?

Thanks!

Frigidaire Refrigerator: New Fridge Doesn't Cool Properly

Tue, 18 Aug 2026 21:01:22 -0700

Today I had a Frigidaire Model #LFTR2045VF delivered. I set both the fridge and freezer thermostats to the "recommended" settings. After about 4 hours of running, I noticed the fridge was off. Freezer temp was about 22 degrees and refrigerator was 44 degrees. I unplugged the unit for a minute, turned it on again. It didn't start running again. I turned up both thermostats to the coldest setting and after about a half hour, both compartments are cooling again. Is this normal or do I have a defective unit?

I can't find any documentation that says to what temperature the "recommended" settings should cool the unit.

APC UPS: APC BackUPS RS1500 won't stay "On Line"

Tue, 18 Aug 2026 19:54:36 -0700

My APC Back-UPS RS 1500 worked for years, including at least one battery replacement, and then recently switched itself out of "On Line" mode into "On Battery" and started beeping.

Power cycling will flash green/OnLine for ~20 blinks, switches to On Battery, then blink "On Line" a few more times, then switch OnLine off, and continue beeping.

Doing the 10s power button hold to enter power-sensitivity-adjustment mode, and trying the 1/2/3 power sensitivity levels didn't seem to help.

I saw a schematic at https://www.eevblog.com/forum/repair/apc...
