Hi !

So I noticed my touchpad was not able to click anymore, I thought something was stuck under it so I opened the laptop to clean it. I then found my battery had swollen up !

I managed to remove it and dispose of it in e-waste center. But now I'm in a search for a new one. I tried contacting the support but they don't seem to be able to even receive my question since my warranty is expired.

I just want to buy a new battery, where would be the best way/place to do that ?

Thanks

Same here. I've got a 2017 Razer Blade Stealth. Same touchpad clicking problem led me to discovering that my battery was all bloated. I removed it, and dropped it off at Staples to get recycled. Couldn't figure out how to contact support, so ended-up buying a battery on Amazon (I needed to get my PC back to functional for work). Now the new battery isn't being recognized by Windows ... and the whole thing is a mess.

RAZER?!?!? WHY IS YOUR SUPPORT SO HARD TO REACH?!?!?!

We have the exact same issue and were wondering on the cost of a diagnostic + replacement. Thanks!

Sent away for a battery on Amazon after no response from Razer (eventually got a response, but had already paid for battery) Still waiting for battery, will update if successful...

I purchased a battery on eBay and after several cycles of charge/discharge the battery isn't near as good as the original. I might get 2 hours on this 'new' battery. Maybe it's cheap cells or something. But it resolved my touchpad clicking issue. Apparently the battery had BEEN swollen for quite a while and I didn't realize it. I was just getting used to the terrible click of the touchpad.

Still searching for an authentic battery so I can get longer life from it. Nothing from razer support yet... Discouraging.

I have also experienced swollen battery for my Razer Blade Advanced 2018.
Any ideas on where to get a good replacement battery?

Hey there! I suggest contacting our Support Team since Razer is offering an out-of-warranty service/repair as long as it is not part of our obsolete models. Feel free to send me a PM. I'll be locking this thread now.
