| [* black] ***Option 1***: lots of heat, a pry tool, a fire extinguisher, a bucket of sand, and nerves of ~~steel~~ vibranium. | |
| [* black] ***Option 2***: a syringe loaded with a little [product|IF145-400-1|iFixit Adhesive Remover]. | |
| [* black] We opt for the latter and splash a bit of the blue stuff into the little tub that cradles the battery. A few minutes later, we have our prize. | |
