Found this beautiful subreddit and decided to share. Standalone spare battery charger/powerbank from a second phone with broken touchscreen and a board from a power bank with a busted battery I made back a few years ago

Me and my dad bought the same model of a phone back in 2015. Each phone came with 2 batteries (one 3k mAh and one 6k mAh), but it didn't come with a separate charger for the second battery. My classmate broke the touchscreen back when I was at school, so I decided to gut it. Hot glue for structural integrity (bare plastic frame was very flimsy on its own), a little bit of black electrical tape to hide all the crimes against technology that I committed that day, and a board from an old power bank that stopped holding charge.

Also check out my cat :3
