Laptop Battery & Charger Replacement in Belleville
One of the biggest advantages of a laptop is being able to use it without being connected to a wall outlet. When the battery stops holding a charge or the charger quits working, that convenience can disappear quickly.
If your laptop dies unexpectedly, only works when plugged in, or is having trouble charging, Comp Doc Computers can help determine what is causing the problem.
Shawn, a licensed computer technician in Belleville, can diagnose laptop power problems and replace batteries, chargers and other components when needed.
Laptop Battery Replacement
Laptop batteries do not last forever. Over time, a battery naturally loses its ability to hold a charge.
You may notice that:
- Your laptop battery drains much faster than it used to
- The computer shuts down unexpectedly
- The battery will not charge fully
- Your laptop only works when plugged in
- Windows displays a battery warning
- The battery is no longer being detected properly
If your laptop is otherwise in good condition, replacing the battery may be a much more affordable option than replacing the entire computer.
Shawn can check the battery and determine whether replacement makes sense for your laptop.
Important: A Swollen Laptop Battery
A swollen battery should not be ignored.
If you notice that your laptop case is separating, the trackpad is raised, the keyboard appears to be lifting, or the bottom of the laptop is bulging, the battery may be swollen.
Stop using the laptop and have it assessed. Do not try to puncture, squeeze or remove a swollen battery yourself.
A damaged lithium ion battery can present a fire risk, so it is important to have the problem handled carefully.
Laptop Charger and Power Adapter Replacement
Sometimes the battery is not the problem at all.
A damaged or faulty charger, frayed cable, loose connection or charging port can prevent a laptop from charging properly.
Shawn can help determine whether you need:
- A replacement power adapter
- A replacement charging cable when applicable
- A repair to the laptop charging port
- A battery replacement
- Further diagnosis of the laptop's charging system
Using the correct charger is important. Laptop power adapters are not all interchangeable, even when the connector appears to fit.
Laptop Charging Problems
If your laptop will not charge, it does not necessarily mean you need a new battery.
The problem could be the charger, charging port, battery or another internal component.
Rather than replacing parts unnecessarily, Shawn can diagnose the problem first and explain what needs to be done.
This can save you money and help avoid replacing a battery when the actual problem is somewhere else.
Laptop Battery Replacement for Businesses
For businesses, a laptop that will not hold a charge can quickly become inconvenient, particularly for employees who work away from their desks.
Comp Doc Computers can help local businesses with laptop battery and charging problems, including multiple laptops when replacement batteries or chargers are needed.
If your business has older laptops with batteries that are no longer performing well, Shawn can assess whether replacing the batteries makes sense or whether replacing the computers would be the better investment.
