Hi! Just having the same question, so I bought the temperature sensor but made a test before sealing the iMac: On my Late-2015 iMac Retina 5K, 27”, with upgraded 16GB ram and a 1TB Crucial MX500 SSD without the OWC temperature sensor installed everything is working fine and the fan spin at standard 1200 rpm! Hope this can be helpful to someone Many thanks to iFixit for the opening guide!
Just did this, the strips on my 7 years old iPhone 6S were impossible to take out. I know that's absolutely a bad idea but being the battery completely discharged i got rid of it with brute force and installed the new one with no problems.
On the other hand, I replaced my iPhone 12 Pro's one and while the strip worked perfectly I have to deal with a warning I can't remove.
Don't attempt this withou changing the display's adhesive!
Everything went fine with the iFixit battery but now I have to deal with an "Important Battery Message" which I can't delete, and the badge number over the settings icon.
