How to restore a dead or dying laptop battery

Posted on March 23, 2007 at 12:38 am

I just read a great article that I found off WiseBread on how to restore a laptop battery that’s crapping out on ya! My Dell battery used to last about 3 hours…until about 6 months later when it dropped down to about 30 mins….then to 10…and finally last week the stupid thing died completely and I can’t unplug my computer without unless I shut down first!!!! Grrrr! Time for some battery fixin!

Check out this video where a tech guy goes through how you can take out the dead cells from your battery and replace them with new ones. The process involves a little bit of soldering, but if you can manage that, you can have yourself a new battery quickly and for much less!
