They are also known to catch on fire quickly. However i even if you release the pressure from the cell packs, you shouldn’t be using that battery any longer. Because that gas coming out of the battery is pretty toxic and shouldn’t be inhaled by anyone.
But i certainly don’t recommend doing that, especially if you’re inside the house. You can poke that lining with a small needle or a sharp pin, to release the gas and the swelling will go down right away. And since that wrapper is sealed pretty well, those gases have no way of escaping, hence the battery swells up and at some point individual cell packs start looking like little pillows. At some point if the battery has a defect, there will be a chemical reaction taking place inside the battery, which causes some gases to build up inside the battery wrapper. The reason that happens, is because of how Lithium batteries are made. Lithium batteries swell up not only on Macbook pros, they can blow up like that on any of the devices, including pc laptops, iPhones, Samsung phones, iPads, etc.
Macbook pro 2015 swollen battery replacement is a quite often job we perform at Fastest Mac Repair and Pc Repair Newbury Park. If this problem with my MacBook is ‘expected’ in a 6 year old machine then I am seriously going to reconsider my approach with purchase of Apple products going forward. I’ve had a run of failing hardware which would be palatable only if I was not continuously spending a top dollar for what is marketed as ‘best quality and it just works’. Hate to say it but I’m becoming more and more discouraged with Apple products - and I’m a self-professed ‘fan girl’. Thoughts and feedback appreciated.ĭisclaimer - next is a bit of rant. PS: my machine is not eligible for the overheating battery recall - I’ve checked. There is an iFixit battery forum which talks about this exact issue in 2018/2019 from a ‘bad’ supplier batch but my last swap out is from a different supplier so I’m inclined to think this is not a battery issue but ‘something else’. I’m also still running Mojave at the moment. Percentage charged vs time remaining all over the place, i.e.: at 98% charge shows less than 2h remaining and then at 78% charge shows 3.5h remaining?!! Done a SMC reset. Batteries seem to ‘suddenly’ drain at around 50% to 7%. I am running a MacBook Pro Retina mid 2015 and have just had my first battery replacement - OEM. Wondering if any of the Power Users have come across a solution to this one please.
