Titel:

Safely removing bloated battery

Tekst:

This past week my MBP decided to get “fat” - the battery bloated up - like a group of pillows. (ugh)   I ordered a replacement battery + tools from here (iFixit) and am preparing to do the replacement.  My concern is - after reading the very detailed instructions - getting the old battery out safely.    I’m afraid to do much flexing or manipulating of the battery given it’s condition - any suggestions on the best course of action and safety tips?  (I figure to err on more solvent to release the glue so I don’t have to manipulate it as much, but…

Thanks for any suggestions!   (Kudos to iFixit for an excellent guide - I’ve printed the pictures so I can tape screws to where they go - so I don’t mix them up)
