Our lawnmower's battery charger stopped working over the weekend. $200 for a new one, which is like 1/3 of a lawnmower. Ugh.
I ordered the weird screwdriver to open the case for $7, watched a 20 min YouTube with someone debugging a similar model. I was able to take it apart and solder back together a component that had come loose. š It's been up and working for 20 minutes with no explosions or even bad smells.
Being willing to attempt to repair stuff is such a superpower. YouTube is amazing. āš»
