Polaroid I-2 Battery nightmare
« on: March 17, 2024, 08:36:38 PM »
This came out last night and I just got around to showing it.
Polaroid has released through the iFixit site a guide on how to replace the internal battery if the I-2 camera.
If you want to be scared, look at the procedure.

This thing is probably harder to work on than an iPhone!

I know that when I saw this it simply blew my mind.
Heck, it would probably be a better investment to send an old SX-70 for a refurbish and upgrade than to simply change a stupid battery!
