OVERKILL
$100 Site Donor 2021
Was just down at one of our medical buildings making sure everything came back online OK after a 12hr outage yesterday and I checked in on the building manager's office and something was looking funky with his MacBook Pro:
I took it home and started to take the screws out of the bottom. POP!!!! With three screws left it spread wide open:
Bottom of unit removed:
I took it outside because it started to pop and make some less than safe noises. Was extremely difficult to get out of the chassis as the whole pack was distorted but finally managed it by prying it out with a screwdriver:
These are @JeffKeryk's favourite pouch cells!!! (JK). As many of us, including @JHZR2 and @ZeeOSix have discussed with regards to pouch cells, this is what happens when things go sideways with them. And this is with very good Apple charge management.
Scary stuff!
