Replacing Your Watch Battery - face of the watch after battery has been replaced

Replacing Your Watch BatteryI always took my watches to the jeweler to have them replace the battery, at a cost of $8-$15. I saw watch batteries for the first time at Dollar Tree, and decided that I would try to replace them myself. Dollar Tree sold them 4 to a pack, which ends up being 25 cents to fix a watch.

Questions

Repairing a Hole in an Air MattressI have an Embark queen size mattress and there's a tiny hole at the top of it. How do I repair it? I've tried tape and that didn't work so now I need a new solution. Can anyone help me?

Finding a Hole in an Electric Air MattressHow do I find a hole in an electric air mattress?

Repainting a Damaged ChalkboardI have a very inexpensive chalkboard which I have used liquid chalk markers to write on because they come out so vibrant! When I wanted to erase and change the message it wouldn't come off. I scrubbed with everything until the finish came off in several places.

Repair a Soap Dispenser PumpI have a snowman soap pump container, but the pump dispenser is not working. I cant throw this cute guy away. Any suggestions?

Darkening Plastic Sunglasses Lenses with RIT DyeI know the basic stuff for dyeing glasses with RIT dye. I can't seem to get my plastic lenses dark enough. I wear prescription eye glasses with over sunglasses. My goal is to get the sunglasses so dark that no one knows or sees my spectacles. I would like to still be able to see though.

Electric Blanket Error CodesI have 2 controllers, one is displaying an error code E2.
