My Problem
I had recently purchased a "Certified" refurbished iPhone 5 after walking into a lake with my 5c. Well, I guess that "refurb" didn't include a battery, as mine was dying about midday regardless of use.
My Fix
The repair went off without a hitch. I had been dreading opening the case, and especially prying the battery loose. Surprisingly, the case came apart easily and the battery pried loose after only a few minutes.
My Advice
If possible, try to do it without disconnecting the screen. I propped it up securely using a soldering tool called a helping hand. P.s. The ifixit Pro tech kit is a Godsend.
