Signs you need a new battery

  • Battery life under an hour or two on light use
  • Laptop only works while plugged in
  • Percentage jumps around or it shuts off at 20–30%
  • The trackpad or case is bulging (swelling)
  • Windows or your battery app reports poor health

Swollen battery? Stop using it.

A swelling lithium battery can crack the trackpad and case and is a safety risk. Power the laptop off, keep it unplugged, and bring it in. We remove swollen cells safely and recycle them responsibly.

Quality parts, honest advice

We source quality replacement batteries matched to your model. If your laptop is very old and the battery is only one of several problems, we’ll tell you, and help you decide whether to repair or replace.
