In your experience can the battery be upgraded to something more than 45Wh that it commonly comes with?

[@arkanullahsaad4639]

[@rickstechrepairs]

[@ekeretteekpo3004]

What type of fluid did you use to wipe the paste off of the processor?

[@rickstechrepairs]

Isopropyl alcohol

[@ekeretteekpo3004]
