Signs Your Laptop Battery May Need Replacing
Battery problems can cause poor runtime, unexpected shutdowns and charging issues. Similar symptoms can sometimes be caused by the charger or charging circuit, so we check the fault before recommending replacement.
Battery Drains Very Quickly
The laptop runs for much less time on battery than it did previously.
Laptop Shuts Down Unexpectedly
The laptop powers off even though the battery indicator still shows remaining charge.
Laptop Only Works When Plugged In
The computer shuts down immediately or shortly after the charger is disconnected.
Battery Not Detected
Windows may report that no battery is installed or fail to display battery information correctly.
Battery Health Warning
The laptop or operating system may report that the battery requires service or replacement.
Swollen Laptop Battery
A swollen battery can push against the trackpad, keyboard or laptop casing and should be dealt with promptly.
Battery Will Not Charge Properly
The battery remains at a low percentage or stops charging before reaching normal capacity.

Laptop Battery Problems We Diagnose
Poor battery performance does not always mean the battery itself is faulty. At our Wigram, Christchurch workshop, we check the symptoms first and identify whether the problem involves the battery, charging system or another power-related fault.
Reduced Battery Capacity
Older batteries gradually lose the amount of energy they can store, resulting in shorter runtime between charges.
Swollen Battery
Lithium batteries can swell as they deteriorate. Swelling may distort the case, lift the trackpad or place pressure on internal components.
Battery Not Charging
A battery that does not charge can be caused by the battery itself, the charger, charging port or motherboard charging circuit.
Battery Not Detected
Connection faults, battery electronics or motherboard problems can prevent the laptop from recognising the battery correctly.

How much does laptop battery replacement cost?
Laptop battery replacement typically starts from $210. The final cost depends on the laptop model, battery type and parts availability.
How do I know if my laptop battery needs replacing?
Common signs include very short battery life, unexpected shutdowns, battery warnings, swelling or a laptop that only works reliably while connected to power.
Can you replace an internal laptop battery?
Yes. Many modern laptops use internal batteries rather than removable battery packs. We replace internal batteries on supported laptop models.
Can you replace a swollen laptop battery?
Yes. Swollen batteries should be handled carefully because expansion can place pressure on the laptop case, trackpad and other components.
Will replacing the battery delete my files?
Battery replacement normally does not erase data stored on the laptop. However, keeping an up-to-date backup of important data is always recommended before repair work.
How long does laptop battery replacement take?
Timing depends on the laptop model and whether the correct battery is in stock. We can confirm expected turnaround when we identify the model.
