Re:Europeans get ‘right to repair’ for some electrical goods by magicalhippo on Thursday March 04, 2021 @06:24AM (#26341102)
I just repaired a heating blanket for my SO. Was about $2 in parts (two diodes and a fuse).

Fortunately I know electronics and have a soldering iron, otherwise it would have been scrapped and she'd get a new one.

There's a local repair club[1] that shows up at shopping centers nearby every now and then and helps fixing consumer products for people. Great initiative IMHO.
