today a local electronics repair technician saw my swelled battery,
pricked it with an exacto knife, the swelling instantly disappeared,
the battery continued to work !! but it was in a smartphone that
had worked nonstop 4+ yrs, never been opened, & had unrelated
microphone issue...
this has me thinking no reason NOT to pin prick my swelled
P4P+ (3) yr old battery...? has anyone reading this pricked
their swelling battery to solve problem? other than avoiding
going too deep to damage battery contents, what's wrong with
a shallow prick to release gas??? thanks in advance.
