Unplug the battery when it is swelling will make it safe for use?


My laptop's battery is swelling. Since this is my only personal computer, I am unable to keep working on my thesis during COVID-19( I can't do this in an internet cafe/ library). Is that available to unplug the battery to continue my thesis during the wait of repair requirement?

It should be safe to start the laptop without the battery installed. I've never tried this on a Razer laptop, though. Hopefully someone else can weigh in. Definitely do not keep using the laptop with the battery plugged in. Sorry this is happening to you, and good luck.

oh that looks nasty. I never tried it myself but the blades should be designed in such a way that they won't start without a battery. The current always goes through the battery first. Unfortunately I can't say it 100%, because I have never tested a blade without a battery.

I've used all my Blades going back to 2014 that have had battery swelling issues without their batteries. Though in order to get your Blade repaired you'll likely have to send it in, thus you would be unable to work on your thesis. You'll probably have to plan things out to get that done around your thesis.

Unplug and take it off if you want to use it. Blade laptops are fine working without battery on ac adapter power.

I'd remove it and use laptop on AC adapter. Will be a lot safer.
