I have noticed a problem with my laptop computer over the last few months, it works great, but the keyboard is starting to bulge up and the mouse pad is deforming, so out with the screwdriver and look what is going on. The photo below is the battery, it is common to many laptops, ASUS, HP, etc. I have removed it and only using the computer with the external power supply, all is back to normal. The thing is the battery works ok and holds it's charge but looking at it's swollen form, it is about to explode. Looking on the net it seems many have the same problem, I have ordered a replacement at 32€ from Amazon which was the cheapest, some are 80€ The one ordered is not OEM and just maybe better than the original which is 2 years old. Just a warning, if you see your keyboard rising up or your mouse pad deforming then your battery is in a dangerous state, remove it and replace it. Regards Mike
