Laptops are convenient devices to have, especially if you like bringing your work with you. These battery-powered devices let you pretty much accomplish things anywhere, as long as you have ample charge left.
Nothing has more of a direct impact on your computer\u2019s lifespan than its battery. You\u2019ll want to replace your laptop battery when its runtime doesn\u2019t last nearly as long as it did out of the box.
If your laptop isn\u2019t able to hold a charge like it used to, replacing the battery is a simple and affordable DIY fix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Signs of a Dead Battery
The most glaring sign of a dead laptop battery is when it bloats. If you have a removable battery, you can take it off your laptop and check the seams of its case for signs of cracking. But if you have a computer with a permanent battery, you can look at the chassis for signs of swelling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These signs can include cracking along the seams of your laptop chassis or bloating near the trackpad or keyboard area. When you see any of these signs, it’s time to replace the battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you can remove the battery, do so carefully. But if it refuses to budge, don’t forcefully remove it. Instead, bring your laptop to a service center and have a professional do it for you. Also, you should not use your computer once its battery swells. Even if it rarely happens, batteries can catch fire or even explode when damaged.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
