I have an older ipad and wanted to see if it could work again, but I found the tablet has this big crack. The crack is from smth inside pushing out of the ipad. I dont know anything really about ipads and just wanted to know if it is for scraps.

I remember the battery life on the ipad was awful and never would turn on for longer than 15 minutes on 100% and maybe 30 if it was charging while at 100%. Charging also take over 4 hours and it wont turn on even until 30 minutes of charging. Not sure about much else though.

I took apart my ps5 just because I felt like giving it a deep clean before gta6 comes out and I was wondering if I could repair this tape that holds internal wires with electrical tape or would I need to use a similar paper feeling tape, could electrical tape cause any problems
