Describe the bug

Certain electronics like 'e-ink tablet pc', 'camera', 'camera_pro', 'mp3 player', 'portable_game', 'laptop', 'diving_flashlight_small_hipower' and a few more must be fully drained before a standardized light/medium/heavy battery mod can be placed into them.

To drain these batteries, the best way is to:

  1. Turn on the flashlight of the e-ink tablet pc and wait for it to drain
  2. Take pictures of yourself 50 times for the camera to drain
  3. Listen to hours of music on the mp3 player before drains.
  4. "play anything for a while" on the handheld game system.
  5. Light the screen on the laptop until it drains
  6. Turn on your high-power mni diving flashlight and wait for it to drain

I understand that these changes to the battery systems of these electronics are now the default as of #76029 and #76167. But this edge case is a small quality of life hit.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Grab any of the above electronic items
  2. Notice you can't install a mod in them without actively draining their batteries to 0
  3. Drain batteries to 0
  4. Finally able to attach a standardized battery mod

Expected behavior

We should be able to swap out the electronics that hold the internal batteries to the standardized light/medium/heavy batteries without needing to wait for their light to wear down their battery over hours. Realistically, the internal battery can just be detached via its connector, like a laptop battery, or cellphone battery, or mp3 battery, and replaced with our standardized battery mods. Cellphones just have their own battery that can be easily popped out and replaced by anyone.

Others like the e-ink tablet and smartphone might have their batteries hard-wired in, in which case, it would need to be snipped with a wire cutter. Which could potentially cause small electric shock if unskilled in electronics if still charged. Then attach standardized battery mod to those wires.

The devices that have a connector for their battery or are hardwired is definitely open to discussion.
