That reminds me of this monstrosity https://www.walmart.com/ip/Neutrogena-Light-Therapy-Acne-Treatment-Face-Mask-1-ct/168984043
You have to buy new "activators" every 30 uses as a way of increasing profits... You know rather than just letting users replace the batteries.
This seems easy to hack. Just dig into it and hook it up to a wall wort with the applicable resistor, then sell the monstrosity on eBay for 2x the cost.
I can imagine the company suing
I can imagine them fucking off.
I can imagine all of you naked.
That escalated quickly.
I imagined that it would escalate quickly.
Wait, you guys are clothed?!
Nothing to sue over.
Reminded me of this: https://www.trojanbrands.com/en/products/sex-toys-vibrators/trojan-tandem-couples-vibrating-ring And Louis Rossmann's repair video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bv88A4vI960

I used to have a radio that would use the leftover battery from a Polaroid 600 cassette.
Iirc that was some sort of a lipo and it handled the flash and motors, but had more than enough power after the paltry 10 pictures were taken to power an AM/FM radio.
"Please drink..."
Who knows the rest?
60 dollars for 10 dollars worth of electronics with no moving components... of course they wouldn't let you just keep using it for years
