Valve Steam Deck's iFixit battery and fan replacement kits are now back in stock after missing from the shelves for a while since they swiftly got sold out.
The repair part retailer, iFixit, introduced its fix kit for the Steam Deck of Valve in June, but the stocks of it are pretty much limited to only 100 units.
And as such, it got sold out immediately and left many folks patiently waiting for its restock.

But this time, stocks of the Steam Deck iFixit Replacement kits appear to be out of their limited run.
As per a news story by The Verge, the iFixit replacement kits for the Steam Deck are back, and it looks like its stocks are plenty enough to last it a long time on the shelves.
The news outlet notes that the Steam Deck is essentially a high-performance gamer PC stuffed in a small handheld design akin to the look of the Nintendo Switch.
And like PCs, users of the Steam Deck could easily swap out its internal parts to give it some upgrades. It specifically allows its owners to install a larger SSD storage and do all sorts of tinkering.
Although the handheld gaming PC of Valve is easy to pry open, it still requires its users to have tiny screwdrivers and plastic spudgers to dissect its inner components.
That's when the replacement kits of iFixit come in, as it includes all the tools you will need to get beneath the internals of the Steam Deck.

But apart from the tiny screwdrivers and the plastic spudger, iFixit offers a whole fan replacement kit.
Steam Deck users have had issues with the loud whining that the fan of the tiny PC produces.
In fact, some folks say that the fan noise gets annoying and distracting at times. It even oddly whines while browsing the menu or running light games.
That said, iFixit figured it would be nice to offer Steam Deck owners a replacement kit that enables them to change the noisy fan on the tiny handheld PC.
It has all the tools needed, plus the replacement fan, which iFixit touts to be more discreet, ditching the distracting whining noise.
According to a recent report by Tech Spot, Valve has teamed up with iFixit to make the replacement kits for the Steam Deck a reality.
Meanwhile, The Verge notes that the restock of the Steam Deck iFixit replacement kits now includes an option to replace its battery altogether.
