Original or manufacturer-grade part
The manufacturer's own cell. On an iPhone it keeps the battery health readout working without a service notice, which is the practical difference most people notice.

The iPhone 14 arrived in 2022, with a 6.1 inch Super Retina XDR OLED display and the A15 Bionic chip. Charging is over Lightning and it unlocks with Face ID. It is rated IP68. A notch rather than a Dynamic Island, two cameras set diagonally, and an aluminium frame. Externally it is very close to the iPhone 13, which is why the model number matters here. A2882 is the model sold here.

What this fixes
What a battery replacement actually fixes.
- Flat by the afternoonThe clearest sign. A battery is a consumable: it is rated for a few hundred full cycles and then it stops holding what it used to.
- Shuts down with charge still showingThe battery cannot deliver the current the device asks for under load, so it shuts down rather than corrupting anything. It often happens at 20 or 30 percent.
- Dies in the coldChemistry, not a fault in itself. A healthy battery slows in the cold and recovers; a worn one drops off a cliff and does not come back until it is charged.
- Battery health well down, or a service messageMost phones report capacity against new. Below about 80 percent most people notice it, and the device may also be throttling to avoid shutdowns.
- It dies at twenty percent and comes back when you plug it inA cell that can no longer hold voltage under load. It is the clearest single sign a battery is finished.
- Charging stops well short of a hundred percentSometimes battery health management doing its job, sometimes the cell. Worth checking which before replacing anything.
Before you spend anything
Is it definitely the battery?
A battery is the right answer most of the time, and it is worth ruling out the two things that imitate it.
IfIt drains fast and Battery Health still reads above 85 percent
Worth a diagnostic. A board fault or something staying awake in the background looks identical from the outside, and a battery would not fix either.
IfIt will not charge past a point, or charges only sometimes
That points at the charging port or the cable before the battery. We clean and test the port first, because very often that is the whole repair.
IfThe phone is dead and will not power on at all
Start with a diagnostic rather than a battery. A dead phone can be the battery, the port or the board, and we would rather find out before you pay for a part.
IfBattery health reads above eighty percent and it still dies
Look at what is running before replacing the cell. A background process empties a healthy battery just as effectively as a worn one does.
IfIt has always been like this since you bought it second hand
Worth checking whether it has been replaced before with a low-grade cell. That is common and the fix is straightforward.
If you are not sure which of these you have, that is what the free diagnostic is for. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.
What parts do we fit?
Where Apple supplies a service part for this component, that is what goes in. Where it does not, we fit premium aftermarket and say so. Which of the two you are getting is settled before you agree to anything, and the 360-day warranty does not change between them.
The words genuine and Apple certified mean something specific and we only use them when they are true of the part in front of us. Anything else is described as premium aftermarket, plainly.
What the €70 includes
- A new battery, fitted and cycled
- The old cell removed and recycled properly
- Charging, current draw and health checked after fitting
- 360-day warranty on the part and the workmanship
Nothing extra gets done and charged for without you saying yes to it. Where the diagnostic turns up a second fault, the work stops there and you hear the price before it goes any further.
A collection and return across Dublin can be added when you book. The repair price and the warranty are the same either way.
Choose the part
Two tiers, named before you agree.
On a battery the tier is not about how it looks. It is about whether the cell holds the capacity printed on it.
Value Edition
Premium aftermarket, tested to the same standard
A cell made to the original specification with cycle data behind it. We will fit this happily; what we will not fit is a cell nobody can tell us how it was stored or what it tested at.
€70The €70 on this page is our standard quote for this repair. Which tier suits your device is a conversation at the counter, and the price for each is on the table before you decide. The 360-day warranty is the same on both, because we would not offer a tier we did not think would last.
A cell sold as 3,300mAh that actually holds 2,900 shows full health on day one and falls off a cliff at eight months. That is the entire reason we are not the cheapest battery in Dublin.
How we do it
From the counter to back in your hand.
Tell us what it is doing
Two minutes online, or straight in the door at 4 Richmond Road. The more you can say about when it started, the faster we get to the cause.
Free diagnostic
We confirm what has actually failed before anything is ordered or opened. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.
You approve the price
You get the exact figure before any work starts. Nothing else happens without asking you first.
The repair is carried out
Carried out here in Drumcondra rather than sent away, by people who do this repair daily.
Bench testing
We test what we replaced and everything that sits beside it, because that is where a rushed repair shows up.
Back in your hands
Yours again, from the counter or by courier, with 360 days of cover on the part and the work.
Before it goes back
What we test every time.
A repair is not finished when the part is fitted. It is finished when the things around it have been checked.
Charge and discharge
Put on charge and watched draw current properly rather than just showing a percentage.
Current under load
Checked while the phone is working, which is where a bad cell shows itself and a resting one does not.
Health reporting
What the device reports about the new cell, so you know before you leave rather than a week later.
Charge rate under load
Measured with the phone working rather than idle, because that is where a weak cell shows itself.
Will my data be safe?
We are replacing a part, not reading a phone. Your photos, messages and accounts are not something this job touches.
The one place it comes up is testing. A repair is not finished until it has been used, and using a locked device means a passcode. You are welcome to withhold it, and we will tell you which checks that leaves undone rather than quietly skipping them. A passcode you do give us lives on a paper docket that gets shredded, never in a database.
Back it up first if you can. A device that has taken a knock has had its storage shaken whether or not anything looks wrong, and a backup is free insurance against the day that matters.
Is it still water resistant afterwards?
After any repair, ours included, work on the assumption that the device is no longer water resistant.
The rating on the box was measured once, on a sealed unit, in controlled conditions. It was never a promise about the device three years later. Adhesive hardens, seals compress and a single drop can break the seal without leaving a mark you would notice.
We reseal with fresh adhesive and it does a real job: rain, splashes and a wet counter are all fine. A submerged phone is not, and we would rather say that plainly than let you find out.
If yours goes near water regularly, say so at the counter and we will tell you what the adhesive covers and what it does not.
The 360-day warranty
Every completed repair is covered for 360 days on the part and the workmanship. If the display we fitted fails, or the fitting was at fault, we put it right at no charge.
What it does not cover is a new accident. A phone dropped again after the repair, fresh physical damage, liquid damage, or a fault in a part we did not touch, all sit outside it. That is the same limit any honest repair warranty has.
No fix, no fee. The diagnostic is free, and if the repair does not happen you pay nothing.
Three ways to get it to us
- Walk in to Drumcondra4 Richmond Road, Dublin 3. No appointment. Mon to Sat 10:00 to 18:00, closed Sunday. Most phone screens and batteries done in 15 to 45 minutes while you wait.
- We collect and returnDoor to door across Dublin, Monday to Friday, usually 2 to 4 working days. The repair takes the same time; the courier is the difference.
- Send it in yourselfPost it to the shop with a tracked, insured service and a note with your number. We cannot cover a parcel in transit, and that is the honest trade-off for the route existing.
Same repair price and the same 360-day warranty on all three. The only thing that changes is how the device travels.

€70, including the part, the fitting, the testing and the 360-day warranty. VAT is included. You get that figure confirmed before anything is opened, and if we cannot repair the phone you pay nothing.
15 to 45 minutes for most phones. If the diagnostic turns up something else, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you commit rather than after.
Treat it as urgent. A swelling cell is under pressure and pushing your screen off its frame. Stop charging it, stop pressing the screen back down, and bring it in. We dispose of swollen cells properly rather than putting them in a bin.
Most phone batteries are rated to hold about 80 percent of their original capacity after 400 to 500 full charge cycles, which for most people is two to three years. Heat shortens it, and so does leaving it on charge at high temperature.
No. This is hardware work and we do not go into your photos, messages or accounts. Back the phone up before any repair as a matter of course.
Rarely, for a battery. A battery is the cheapest repair that makes an old phone feel new, and on most models it costs a fraction of a replacement handset. If we think you would be throwing good money after bad we will say so.
Some manufacturers pair the cell to the board and show a notice after any replacement, genuine or not. Everything works; it is a parts message. We tell you in advance if your model does it.
