WARNING!!! Be careful NOT to overcharge your Kindle 3!!!!!
I was following the guidance on this forum… and while it might work…. I happened to open the back of mine, and by chance…. I found the battery on my Kindle 3 had swollen up! Overcharging a Kindle (or any Lithium battery) will cause it to swell up and with persistence, it’s likely to set on fire and explode! A chemical burn/fire is no joke as the it can’t be put with water and so you have to bear the pain of letting it burns itself out on your skin. Nasty stuff!
I went on eBay and bought a brand new battery for £15 including postage. I really hope this reaches someone trying to fix their Kindle 3 and possibly save them! Be careful guys!!!!
