How to replace computer mouse button on your own
So, here is the problem: Let's say you've got a mouse that works like a touchpad - the micro button is drowned all the way in, and even a slight touch would trigger a click/doubleclick event. Not good! I don't like them mice working like touchpads!
Solution: Get a new one.

What is hot glue? Where to buy hot glue gun and how to use.
This thing is just irreplacable! I don't know how I used to live without it.
It's reaaaly cheap as well on ebay: Heating Hot Melt 20W Glue Gun Crafts Album Repair with Glue Sticks 28mm 7mm
You can probably find a dispenser/gun for a couple of dollars. I ordered a gun and 30 sticks for just 13.25$. It's not like you're gonna be using a stick per day, 30 stick will probably cover you for a year or more.
What is it for?

Stock battery: LIS1356HNPAQ (SY6), 850mAh, 3.7V;
After 7 the battery deteriorated, and I could only go through 100-150 pages before it shut down.
Moreover, it was missing the original charger, but that issue was resolved swiftly and easily. I simply had to find appropriate center-positive plug, and solder it with red and black wire of a USB-plug. The original charger was supposed to be 5.2V, USB's voltage is 5.0V, which is not much of difference.
Now, let's move on to the battery replacement. There are two options I could find:
