This cute little monster has chewed a single earbud from not 1, not 2, but 4 🫣 pairs of Shokz Openfit 2+ earbuds. I really don't want to buy a 5th pair.

So, I have 4 unchewed earbuds, evenly split between left and right, but none of them connect to each other. They each also connect to a different charging case.

Question 1: Does anyone have a clue how these things connect to one another? Is there any chance that I could pair them without having to open them up?

Question 2: If 1 isn't possible, is anyone willing to get on a video call with me and see whether you can guide me through switching out parts to repair one of the chewed earbuds? I have no experience with this kind of thing. I have some ifixit tools from opening up an iMac once, and even a (never used) solder. Whether these will suffice ¯\(ツ)

I have no clue about wireless earbuds in particular, so I won't be of help with question 1.

But I could give you some general remote help. I don't know how successful that will be with probably limited tools and documention, but I'm willing to try :D
