I watched that video and used the method. I just plugged the holes on the end with hot glue and colored with a black marker. Thanks to my mentor, Sorrin!

[@nealschwartz9456]

Hello Sorin. I have been watching most of you laptop repairs. I have been doing this here in Atlanta GA for 4 years, working from home. I acquired an older Compaq CQ57. totally dead. I am happy to say " and we have PICTURE " love that. Thanks for teaching all of us. Blessings on you and your family this holiday season. Neal

[@abdis70]

The great man is genius and honest to teach us what he knows. The way he setup his cameras and how he demonstrates is super .Happy holidays champ.

[@davidsmith-ih2kk]

I agree this guy is nothing short of genius and not just a genius but a fair and honest genius and funny into the bargain

[@Dr.muthanna]

Very smart way to charge a laptop battery I didn’t seen it before You’re genius Sorin

[@HePBHuq]

Great one, Sorin! Thanks for sharing the knowledge with us! Happy holidays from Bulgaria :)

[@yiuteenice7815]

Please mr sorin am having with my dell laptop I've been trying to fix it but couldn't is showing plug in not charging but at times it still show plug in charging

[@klwthe3rd]

Amazing what Sorin can fix without replacing a single component. He is like the Godfather of electronic repair. I wish we had talented people like him here in the United States. Nobody wants to or has the knowledge to fix anything here! Just replace replace replace! Sorin inspires us all.

[@davidsmith-ih2kk]

I wish we had him in Western Australia

[@jasonledrew7677]

You sir every time I watch a video I am inspired! Thank you for sharing Merry Christmas sir.

[@MrRvdbeek]

Sorin it’s always your way you do it it’s a great way to make it work great 👍🏻

[@015diesel]

Thank you so much for your time and absolute dedication to teaching us Sorin you are one in a billion mate a master of your craft by far! Since I found your Chanel I have been watching religiously 🤯 lol! Ive learned more from you in 1 year than I have my entire life and that's fact! So to you Sorin my infinite appreciation and eternal respect! Thank you sir x from wee bony Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@davidsmith-ih2kk]

I agree wholeheartedly

[@denciocabral9770]

Thank you so much, my laptop has been sitting unresponsive to wifi for almost 2 years and your video has revived it from death. 😀

[@tomatoketchup1582]

Watching all your videos. I learned a lot. I recently fixed my bad mouse button. Will progress slowly. Thank you :)

[@rayofcreation3996]

Sorin all that I can do by way of showing my gratitude and love to you from this far is send you hugs and best wishes to you and your kith and kin. This world certainly is a better place because of such hearty people like you. Thank you so much. 😊👍

[@richardseeger1992]

This actually worked guys, thanks

[@AlanHernandez-kl7ld]

Great, simple, Sorrin way!!

[@touati84]

Great video thank you .. What memory that cannot be lost?

[@davidsmith-ih2kk]

I searched everywhere for your channel good sir but I just could not find it,forgot to subscribe and tick the bell icon. So I'm looking for help with a HP laptop which has the same problem as your Acer . I have to say I have missed your funny videos and ways of repairing stuff, like using lighter fluid to clean a board and removing balled CPU's and ICs without a CPU remover. I have to say I am over the moon I found your channel again, I love watching your repair videos, I really have missed watching your stuff and the inhaler instead of cigarettes, honestly I am so happy I wont be losing it again, your firmly subscribed and bell icon ticked. I don't have the skills to fix my laptop but its good watching you work. I am just too old too fidgety and no eyesight to fix stuff like you do. I wish you were in Perth Western Australia I'd bring my laptop to you pronto, your so fair when you quote a job and fix something. Sad for me though my laptop is a HP 840 G3 with a flat pack battery and its definitely not the battery it is brand new so I am stumped, but I usually check the voltage by sticking pins into the battery contacts, i know its not a memory issue because I bought a new battery and it was charged 50 per cent when I put it in , it just went to zero because the laptop wouldn't charge it. The charger was OK I tried another but I was too scared to use my power supply to charge the battery, because of all the other pins I didn't know what they were for

[@satriorudi1979]

I like your way to analyze the thing great teacher

[@MrRvdbeek]

Sorin Happy new year 🥳 and let us do electronics learning. I did buy a lot and make my own power supply. The old one cutdown the power when there is a short. I hope this one I can use to find a short again.

[@chitexchikezie9239]

Thanks for the video. What can one use to charge-up a faulty battery apart from power supply? I have exactly a faulty system like this but I don't have a power supply.

Hi thank you for your explanation of the problem you inspire me to remove the battery and get it back and it Works fine now the battery is charging 😊

[@carlosraaul1407]

This is just amazing.

[@titomar6634]

[@zx8401ztv]

I've seen you do this before, it's naughty but gives a chance for the battery to work :-)

[@thesilverfinger]

Hello sorin How much voltage you used with current to revive the battery with 4 amps ?

[@stalez5250]

2022 and still impressed *thumbs up*

[@zoltansudar6674]

Thank you Master. 😁 Merry Christmas.

[@zustiizth]

Thanks for your video... i resolved mine by removing the battery and while the batt is out, plugged in the charger and power on the laptop.... waited for few minutes, left the laptop on and inserted the battery.

[@balticelectronics9627]

As allways, Sorin way, nice way :)

[@BigLiftBoss]

You are the best man!

[@nareshnundlall1557]

it worked - thank you, thank you , thank you - there was absolutely nothing wrong with my battery - probably because the laptop wasn't used for some time

[@luchoperetti182]

Another question, making the holes on the battery is not the same as opening the battery and charging it directly? Thanks.

[@johnybmb]

Hi! I have been watching most of your videos and I thought I was on to something for repairing a laptop, which had no light when connecting the charger; I only have a multimeter tool and I saw that there was no voltage on the POWER button (well, only 1.2 V, instead of 3.3 which was expected). I plugged the charger and I noticed that a chip, which seemed to control a power supply, was getting very hot; I tried to measure the voltage on that chip, but I must have touched 2 adjacent contacts, which somehow shorted the chip, causing it to burn out, with a noticeable glow and smoke... Basically, this was the moment I realized that repairing electronics is beyond my reach... Anyway, the motherboard is lost for what I'm concerned and probably this is the end of that laptop. This goes to show that this field is not for amateurs; Also, this is my last attempt at fixing any electronics, as it is well beyond my knowledge and understanding. However , thanks for sharing your knowledge and precious time for teaching other people. Multa sanatate si noroc in continuare! Succes in ceea ce faci!

[@titijrlamese7945]

Hey Johny you couldve just removed that chip and the board would've been OK. Anyway guess you went on with your life without pursuing a career in electronics, all good

[@malamamukanu3953]

This goes to show that this field is for amateurs aswell as everybody starts out as an amateur you gave up too early... Lol keep trying stuff until you see progress that's if you really have passion for electronics if not then stopping at the first sign of struggle or failure is a sign its not for you.

[@interestingspagetti]

I have done this with an iphone battery before which i learnt here. Cheers Sorin. But how can you tell if the battery is good? It may only last 20 mins unplugged?

[@Unbricked]

8 dislikes are from battery sellers

[@rayofcreation3996]

Unbricked 😆

[@AdnanKhan-yg4ng]

[@Swenser]

The newer slim inbuilt batteries with its own circuitry need to have surgery to open them, but should be same principle yes?

[@daveb6239]

Sorin, is this applicable to all laptop batteries in general? I come across thousands of laptops a year with "dead batteries". Mostly Dell/HP. I have been recycling them thinking they are dead. How can I try this on the thin lithium polymer ones?

[@MA-kz7oc]

Hello there. Is there a way I can contact you regarding an issue with my laptop? Thank you

Hi, when as he takes 0A and showing only voltage (11v) the battery is discarded ? this is toshiba battery 10.8v , 4200 mAh

[@amintgh6414]

hi. thanks for good content . what do you mean if the memory is not lost ? what memory ? what are you talking about?

[@TimeToRelax222]

Hi I know it's been a year since your comment ,but if you still don't know he meant battery eeprom memory when everything about battery is stored: serial number capacity etc.When cells discharge to certain voltage the eeprom notices that and blocks the MOSFETs inside batteryto charge the battery.

[@nadergholikhany9862]

Hi sorin what about same problem in internal battery how can i make it alive?

What would the cost be to fix the adapter not getting charge?

I have a same laptop exactly like this one with same battery problem but it is been two years not in use can that battery work again? and some keys on keybord don't work

You literally tickled the battery and it woke up! Surprising

[@aukargeruentertainmentshow6670]

Does it work or is possible to do this on macbooks battery too? Thank you, GREAT video.

[@robertcartier5088]

Nope. With a MacBook, you're expected to spend another 1000 dollars to buy the refurbished model! Didn't you get the memo?! You bought a jacked-up Lada disguised as a Lamborghini, and your cult expects you to pay 'Lamborghini' repair bills! You don't own an Apple product, you just pay to use it -- In exactly the way they want you to use it, or else! ;-) Preemptive excuse: Sorry, got triggered... been arguing with Theists all damn day! ;-)

I have the same laptop and the same issue, unfortunately, I left the battery out of the laptop and didn't use it for a long time. I don't know if it will come back to life haha. How much should show to know that I can recover it, 5v? Less than that is impossible already? Thanks.

[@gunsnroses2872]

perfect

[@hssnov]

I have question, i replaced the battery to new original one but it dose something strange. It keeps do plugged in charging then it disconnects from the DC like the DC not connected while the DC port plugged in. I tried to uninstall the battery and the driver do BIOS reset but nothing any one knows whats the problem thank you

[@Swenser]

Just checked the voltage on ends of laptop battery. 6v. I applied 12v limited current to 1.5 amps to charge but zero current flows. How possible I read a voltage but it's like open circuit when trying to charge with applied V ? I'm gonna try and zap a much higher voltage. 20v for a second and see. Any other ideas why zero current for charging?

[@LORDSofCHAOS333]

well will this work for a thinkpad x 220 battery because it got stuck at 45 % and it wont work also i get this error message to the battery has failed due to normal wear. the battery cannot be charged. replace the battery

Amazing. Maybe someone knows, how to change amps while same voltage goes to battery? I am architect. Do not know a lot regarding this. But I have a lot of old laptops I used all these decades. Some of them i really miss. I have smart charger for lipo nimh etc batteries. And universal laptop charger. Which one I can use for raising amps? THANKS

[@warfit8698]

Hi, today i`v checked each cell and i notice that one is showing 3.2V. So i`ve change it with new. Now he battery voltage is 14.8V. When i putted on the battery on the computer I tried to run the computer on battery (just to test it). Nothing happened. When i turned on the pc i saw its capacity is 25% plugged in, not charging. Again the same but the capacity is now 25% but not 0%. Any suggestions?

[@oddity4650]

What if the battery seems to charger even get to 100% thay might last about 1 hour, then other times either if it is 100$ or a 70% it will only last about 2 minutes or less then the computer will turn off then when you plug the charger back in the battery shows 0, 8 checked the charger it is fine it shows 19v. I did a battery health test, the resurl shows it goes no where near the designed maximum capacity level, I think it should be about 50 mwh, but it shows about 15 mwh at max capacity level, i heard after 24 months a battery will be a very weak. I have ordered a new battery, I just hope it is that issue, any advice?

Remove the battery and check the pins on the laptop to see how much voltage they give and use that voltage with 2 3 amps and that's it.
