Is my laptop battery overcharged?

Ca

I have recently seen or felt a bulge under my keyboard or next to my touchpad on my laptop. Then I screwed on the laptop and opened it and saw that the battery is light or bloated. (Became hot during the games or high programs). Does that mean the battery has been overcharged? Almost always plugged the laptop into the mains so that I have the full line (I almost always need it). Can this carry damage or does the bloating depend on something else? Would like to know some information from you.

Extreme caution! Read this:

What type of battery is that exactly? And yes, if it inflates so badly (at least it looks like this in the picture) it should definitely get out. The danger that he will start burning is very high.

You should replace the battery.

There are many examples of where they go up in flames

It's not just overloaded. It's broken!

Under no circumstances should you continue to use the device with it or replace it as quickly as possible before the thing flies completely around your ears.

Don't overload. These batteries are usually lithium-ion batteries, where there are two thin layers of coated aluminum and copper that act as plus and minus poles. There's not just one cell in this cell, but several, each connected in parallel and in series, once to increase the capacity and once to increase the voltage.

These two layers are separated by a so-called separator, which is a layer that is intended to prevent the layers from getting electrically conductive contact. If too much current flows over a longer period of time or if the battery is mechanically overloaded, a short circuit can occur which leads to an uncontrolled release of the electrical energy stored in it. The short circuit ensures a high short circuit current which heats the cell accordingly and threatens to cause a fire.

You should dispose of the battery as soon as possible and get a new battery. In the worst case, your notebook can also be damaged. I would not continue to operate it with the battery.
