After leaving it in a drawer for a few months, I finally wanted to get started installing Linux on my beloved 11-inch MacBook Air… but the battery has clearly started to swell. 😭 #MacBookAir11

I bought a new battery and a new (and larger) SSD, let's resurrect it! 🥳 #MacBookAir11

Oh noooo… this is not the right battery model! 🤦‍♂️ Looks like I have an end-2010 11-inch MacBook Air, not a mid-2011 one, and they moved the battery connector… 😔 But the SSD is changed. Let's try to return the battery to iFixit… #MacBookAir11

#iFixit can’t accept a return because of constraints on Lithium Ion batteries transportation. But they refunded me, and I can do whatever I want with the battery. 😲 Anyone in Paris area needs a mid-2011 11-inch MackBook Air battery? #MacBookAir11
