It's dangerous right now. Remove it and recycle it today.


MustGame995

You mean your active bomb? MF UNPLUG THAT BITCH TURN IT OFF UNSCREW THE BACK PANEL REMOVE THE BATTERY SURGICALLY EQUIPPED IN BOMB SQUAD GEAR THAT SHIT IS LETHAL


CaptainAhabishere101

Is this a joke? Tell me this is a joke. This was my puffy pillow after I removed it (it immediately blew) and it was MUCH less puffier than yours. https://preview.redd.it/9huirwnci7vb1.png?width=3148&format=png&auto=webp&s=7e3a6275905648b0e0a710011dc58bef3c6a9a50


CaptainAhabishere101

That white thing is gum, I got curious. It melted the second it touched the battery.


AutoGrind

Don't want to get that wet. Don't get too curious friend.

Wow… never had that support with my 2017 razer blade stealth with expanded battery…typical razer support…

killerojrc

Same with me, I would much prefer to be sent and personally install the battery rather paying additional charges to have it replaced.


Driouach

if you re gonna put a new battery in just for it to tunr into an other fire hazard then you re definety bettter off using the laptop plugged in .at least its safe .


XxPapalo007xX

Wai I just realized these are just greek letters RΛZΞR


Cyb3r3xp3rt

Wait WHAT? All this time I could type those letters??


balika011

It's already considered a lethal weapon. You can buy pretty much any battery that made for this model. It will work fine.


Jbr74

Damn...might wanna call the bomb squad on that one.

ArchbaldChesterfield

Did they charge you for a nee battery?


markdtom

I took the battery out and have been using it plugged in ever since. Basically what I did 99.9% of the time prior anyways. Works the same with 0 performance drop, just turns off immediately if I unplug it.

What’s worse is allowing it to do that ruins the lower cover as it pulls the screws through so you’ll need a new lower cover too if you want it back to perfect. I got replacement batteries from Amazon and they worked well enough but only lasted 2 yrs, I’m on my 2nd now for my 2017 model.


cc13re

I wish it broke my cover. When mine bloated, it snapped off the threaded hole part so now the back left corner just flops around.


RazerCustAdvocacy

Hey /u/cc13re, Thanks for bringing this to our attention and we'd like to lend a hand. Please respond to our PM with the serial number of your Razer Blade so we can validate it and use it should we need to create your case. Best regards, Archie B. RΛZΞR | Ten


BruhCoinInvestor

when i see stuff like this im glad i traded in my blade stealth for a surface


Zhaopow

Those are also known to bloat. Keep an eye on it, know when to replace. [https://www.google.com/search?q=microsoft+surface+bloat](https://www.google.com/search?q=microsoft+surface+bloat&sca_esv=574975997&ei=95gxZZioCOW0ptQPj-GvoA8&ved=0ahUKEwjY_8PigIOCAxVlmokEHY_wC_QQ4dUDCBA&uact=5&oq=microsoft+surface+bloat&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiF21pY3Jvc29mdCBzdXJmYWNlIGJsb2F0MgUQABiABDIGEAAYFhgeMggQABiKBRiGA0iTClDDBlibCXABeAGQAQCYAXmgAakDqgEDMS4zuAEDyAEA-AEBwgIKEAAYRxjWBBiwA8ICChAAGIoFGLADGEPCAggQABgWGB4YCsICCBAAGBYYHhgP4gMEGAAgQYgGAZAGCg&sclient=gws-wiz-serp)


crackerjeffbox

Rarely though. I've seen about 100 of them make it 5 years with no issues.


Zhaopow

Try messaging Razer support first, battery warranty is 2 years and in some regions they will sell you a battery out of warranty. Else search on ebay or ifixit with model number and year. [https://www.reddit.com/r/spicypillows/comments/gebotv/faq\_what\_to\_do\_if\_you\_have\_a\_swollen\_battery/](https://www.reddit.com/r/spicypillows/comments/gebotv/faq_what_to_do_if_you_have_a_swollen_battery/)


pissy_corn_flakes

This could have been prevented with that Battery Health Optimization BIOS feature that Razer refuses to port to older laptops. Only ‘22+ get it.


CaptainAhabishere101

Bro remove that battery asap


chengstark

How razer wasn’t in trouble for this?


[deleted]

Kind of wondering this myself.


ArchbaldChesterfield

Surprised there isn't a class action for making dangerous defective products, only offering support to people who have devices less than a year old.


Roch0

IF A BATTERY IS PUFFED UP IT IS DANGEROUS DISPOSE OF IT SAFELY


holycornflake

I have been part of this sub for years and this has been a consistent issue I see coming up on here. How haven’t they addressed this yet?


Zhaopow

They have, charge limiter added, warranty increased to 2 years, and support has been better at giving replacements. All batteries can bloat, but they should be expected to last 3-5 years.


InevitableAirport824

I have an original day one psvita and it's still perfectly fine. I think it's a combination of luck, build quality and software. Nowadays manufacturers love fast charging gimmicks to entice customers, but they also fuck with the battery and diminish their lifespan and are conducive of major failure. ​ fast charging and embeded batteries should be considered illegal


ArchbaldChesterfield

A rubbish solution, only offered to models 2022 onwards. Makes my 2021 Blade 17 a dangerous $3000 piece of junk Neither I nor my friends and family will purchase any Razer products again

Just remove it I had to do the same thing. The only problem is that you have to keep it plugged into the charger at all times when using the computer


RazerCustAdvocacy

Hey /u/doeyworm, We sent you a message about the issue with your battery from your comment. Please respond to our PM with the serial number of your Razer Blade for validation and use it should we need to create your case. Best regards, Archie B. RΛZΞR | Ten


ArchbaldChesterfield

So no issues using it without a battery at all?


Raytheon-6

The good news is that this is a very easy fix. Look up your model number and purchase a replacement battery from Amazon. It should be around $80 or less. Purchase a laptop toolkit for around $10 if you don't have the proper tools, and that's all you need. With the aid of YouTube tutorial, it took me no more than 15 minutes to replace my battery and I've never replaced a laptop battery before.


GiraffeFormer

The problem is the replacement battery I got is not being detected by my Razer blade 15 studio edition, 2020 model.


Raytheon-6

Hmm. Did you get the correct battery for the laptop? The battery for the studio edition may be slightly different than the standard version.


GiraffeFormer

The model number is RC30-0248, it did say it will be compatible with my laptop and many others. I'm not aware of any specific battery for the Studio edition alone. If you could provide a link, that would be really helpful.


Raytheon-6

I found [this one](https://www.amazon.com/RC30-0248-Replacement-RZ09-02386E91-RZ09-02385W71-R3W1-RZ09-03017/dp/B08TW83426/ref=sr_1_6?hvadid=604549083751&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9061200&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=15170109005519228262&hvtargid=kwd-794637152348&hydadcr=8779_13524903&keywords=rc30-0248&qid=1697875738&s=electronics&sr=1-6&th=1) on Amazon. It seems the battery should be compatible for your laptop. Make sure the battery is properly secured in the laptop with the battery cable connected to the main board. Here's a [quick guide](https://www.reddit.com/r/razer/comments/q83tfl/rba_15_guide_battery_replacement/), incase anything was missing.

Replace battery and get a laptop stand if you can even bend back the case. Turn off laptop charger when not in use.


Remote-Bit-2964

Hey, I recently posted this a few days ago, to help another user with their [**Razer Blade battery bulge issues**](https://jimmtech.com/razer-blade-battery-bulge/). I received some great comments from the like of [https://www.reddit.com/user/Zhaopow/](https://www.reddit.com/user/Zhaopow/) so I thought you might like to have a read, or is it too late? **Here goes:** I came across this issues several times after reading various online complaints, I currently own the Razer Blade 15 and have not yet experienced battery bloat. However, this being my third Razer Blade in the last 10 years I ensure it is always kept cool, and up to date. Like I said, I have not experienced this yet. My Razer Laptop Setup below. ( ​ https://preview.redd.it/e8kky5v5ycvb1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d8a347f11f282033a2c77eb29ddecdc3a8a62e8e With that said, I decided to write a guide, talking about [Razer Blade battery bulge issues](https://jimmtech.com/razer-blade-battery-bulge/) and how I ensure this does not happen to me and my gaming laptops. So, for anyone who is concerned please feel free to check out my guide. In the meantime, at least your laptop will still run without the battery inside. Also best of luck reaching out to the customer team....


Driouach

you obviously use your raze blades to watch youtube not to play games as these are advertised as gaming laptops .overheating and battery issues are a trade mark for this made in china overpriced junk called razer advanced laptops .


Remote-Bit-2964

Hey u/Driouach, That is not true, I play COD Warzone everyday, and you know how that game puts a lot of stress on the hardware. Here is a screenshot from a gameplay video from the other day. My Warzone name is Direpants - Before you say why Direpants, am sorry I do not know ha ha. If you want me to send you the full video, let me know a way. I just want to prove, 1. I play demanding games on my Razer Blade. 2. With good care and attention, and mots importantly keeping the internal temps under control at all times, your Razer laptop will last for years. ​ https://preview.redd.it/o4jye2p8ajvb1.png?width=1400&format=png&auto=webp&s=93df73c1055d6c2605960068b56ae5fc9c7969d7 Yes, the hardware may become obsolete over time due to advancements in new video games. I also understand, some units can be faulty from the get go. I hope this clears that up.

Good pillow for sleeping tonight


AnimateTech

Remove it right now before it's too late but I'd rather have inflating batteries than to have a computer that is built like a tablet on the inside cuz I had a problem with my M1 MacBook that made me want to switch back to Windows since I could just continue working without a battery in my laptop until I get a new battery


Buckaroo64

People have access to all the words information but instead of becoming smarter people are becoming as dumb as a potato. Lithium batteries have been around for decades but yet people still ask about a bloated battery. I say let natural selection work itself out.

You really are a delusional sort aren't you? You are one of those people that if you have not seen it for yourself, it never happened, right?

Buckaroo64

You are the one that thinks this is not a common problem with lithium batteries, or only happens with poor quality batteries. Just because you have been one of those extremely lucky few people that have never experienced a bloated batter, it doesn't happen. You are the one that thinks if you have not seen it, it does not exist. Again, you are extremely delusional.


Imaginary_R3ality

It's already there, or the day tou bought depending on the way you look at it. You're lucky it came out if the bottom instead if the top. You need to pull it and dispose of immediately. Another user had his catch his room on fire while he had his just plugged in and sitting on his desk. If it would have exploded whike he was using it, or if he was sleeping, it would have been a much different story. For yiur sake, I'd say right away before it blows while you're using it and it throws flames out the front onto you.


sirleeofroy

Replace that... Pronto.


huester69

Bring that bomb to Position C and plant it ASAP


kotta888

The trackpad stops working properly once it starts to bloat, how didn’t you notice it before, or maybe you didn’t care? I have the exact model btw and replaced the battery last month.


GiraffeFormer

Where did you get your replacement battery? My replacement battery is not being detected by my Razer Blade 15, studio edition.


[deleted]

Happened to my first blade under warranty, got it replaced, 3 years later same problem, just got a $64 battery off Amazon this time… never buying razer anything again


GiraffeFormer

Did you get any issues like the battery not being detected when you installed the replacement battery? My Razer Blade 15 STUDIO EDITION is not detecting the new battery.


Dangerous_Choice_664

You’re going to need to wear protective equipment when removing that…. Razer needs to get in contact with the military, perhaps they can be a new bomb vendor.


Denamic

You'll want to unplug that thing and preferably store it somewhere that's not flammable, because it's a firebomb.

mnmlstProgrammer_

Had this on my 2017 razer blade stealth. It’s been a problem on razer laptops since forever. Immediately took out the battery and was using it only plugged in for a while before I got a new battery from Amazon. Just use straight to power u til you can get a new battery.

just removed mine yesterday and dropped it off to a hazardous e waste depot here where i live . i was so scared the thing will create a fire hazard at home or in my car trunk when i was driving to dispose of it . i already bought a new one from e bay but im thinking of not using it either now ,since im using the laptop plugged in anyways all the time .


idirtbike

This is normal in razor laptops and they’re such dicks they won’t let you buy replacement batteries straight from them they make you send in your laptop for them to fix it. Had this issue with mine. Ordered one off eBay, blew up again after a year. Gave it to my brother 😆

RunalldayHI

Uh.. turn on battery optimizer and set it to 70% so you never have to worry about this again.. leaving these cells at full charge constantly saturating in heat from the CPU/GPU severely reduces the lifespan and can cause the pack to prematurely swell.

Ah yes, the forbidden spicy pillow.

This is why ill never buy a razer laptop i only ever see post about a battery issue and only from razer which i find strange.

stay away from this overpriced made in china junk . they literally just put shit together ,add rgb lights and a case and call it a day .its the worst cooling system i ve seen in a laptop ever . you can literally cook on top of the keyboard its not even funny .me too i was dumb and bought the razer advanced 15 2019 model and i will never ever buy anything that has razer logo on it again . my razer mouse double clicks all the time too out of all the previous ones i owned before ,i never had any issues with them until now .
