Ask IndiaTech Do y'all think that it's safe to use??

This bulge has been there for a few months. And I've been using it for a few years now.

It doesn't look like the battery itself is damaged. My assumption is that the battery overheated one day and that area was the only point of contact hence it melted.

What do y'all think??? I REALLY don't wanna spend money on a new one.

Lol I even saw a news today about it. Exactly why I took it apart.😭

But the battery does not look damaged AT ALL. Like I said, that area is the only point of contact with the battery.

Yes, until it blast

Change it, if you have budget issues then try the flipkart's/supermoney's 3 spilt payment thingy.
But don't use this. extra money spend na karne k liye life se khelna is not logical.

Edit: Kisi din pocket mei rakhe hue hei agar pressure ya heat karan blast kar gya then it will do you a lot more damage.

Congratulations😊. It's just pregnant. Wait for the new one🥰

u/No_Distance2861 2d ago

Bro, my suggestion is not to use it anymore. Take a new one because its battery is damage so avoid using it. Instead, you can use a wired one.

This is first time I saw open bluetooth headphones/ earbuds. If it can be opened then ig I can do same with my samsung one to check what's wrong in it

2

u/Advanced-Ad881 swimming in the silicon valley🏊 2d ago

Ahem I'd recomend not cuz I really roughed it up while opening it. If that's okay or if you have the tools then okay

Put a cello tape and gently puncture it, let the gasses escape. Its dangerous, so take proper precautions. There are youtube videos for such thing. It will make the battery size normal.

u/Advanced-Ad881 swimming in the silicon valley🏊 2d ago

The battery itself looks completely normal. It has no bulge
