Attention! Battery Airbags Deployed!

Took the bottom cover clean off, I'll never understand how the customers manage to get the battery out before it's too late and it splits off the entire top case. The middle cell is at about 25psi. Amazing how those cells are so airtight, especially considering their condition. The other cells are fine, the left and right ones are just being lifted up by the wrappings.

*blink*

Wow. Just...wow.

I've had clients give me computers in pretty bad shape and say "Fix it for me," but that's just...damn.

Apple refers to them as "expanding batteries". I refer to them as "inflating batteries".

Soooo tempting to get out a pin and see if it will pop like a balloon, but even if you forget that they may not appreciate my returning it punctured, I don't think it's going to release a very healthy gas.

tacit , you must have missed my Last Encounter ?

I did miss that one. Ouch!
