why is there so much empty space next to the battery?

Big screen, little processor. The screen dictates the space, that’s why the battery has to be secured with adhesive.

I’m confused. If it’s a battery replacement issue, why is the battery not listed on the parts list? Is that not necessary once you take the old one out? Where do I get a new battery to replace the one this is teaching me to remove? O.o

You’ll have to google one. Amazon does not offer one. They want to sell you a new Kindle instead.

I am buying one with the plastic tools (ebay), even if they suck, they should get through this process once.
