HP has been battling with the battery since mid-2016protrouble
HP has been struggling with a difficult battery since around June 2016proproblem The batteries are probably slowly giving up the ghost and overheating in some HP notebooks. After this Proproblem became known, around 41.000 batteries were recalled. A further 101.000 batteries are now being asked to be recalled. The reason for this is that last year an incident involving an overheating and melting accumulator became known, which was not known before. The good news is that the damaged property wasn't people, just the equipment and batteries themselves. The result was approximately $1000 in damage.
