No (or very low) charging, after battery replacement
crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:
EDITED: Extremely slow charging, after I installed an iFixit battery replacement.
Note that the slow or semi-random charging had been present prior to the battery update, and began when the iPad last upgraded to some version of ios 12. (approx. a year of bad charging behavior, where it would jump from 4% to 100 % in a very short time.)
Initially, after the battery upgrade, it appeared to be stone dead - screen NOT lighting up at all. Left it on a charger for a couple of days, still nothing.
Connected it to a Mac MINI, and when I pressed the button, the device came on! but it showed 1 or 2 % power. The Mac MINI said that the device was “drawing too much power”, and I should disconnect it. Put it back on a charger for several days. It climbed to a staggering 4% battery level. Everything appears to work, touch screen, buttons, etc. Except for the sad state of charging.
Any obvious culprits?

I’m pretty experienced at repair and troubleshooting Apple devices (laptops, etc.). I was extremely careful when reconnecting the battery cable, etc. And went through the procedure very carefully. All screws in correct locations.

I should have tested it prior to replacing the adhesive strips, though.
