Laptop Battery Recalls: Dell, Sony, Apple
August 19th, 2006
I was using my Mac and realizing I have a 126℉ laptop resting on me. I thought what if, right NOW, it burst into flames just like the Dell did? Well, I wouldn’t be happy. Here I am now, compiling links about the Laptop Battery Recalls that can help you, save your laptop from a premature flaming death.
- Dell Support: Battery Recall/Return Program
- HP’s list of Recalled Products
- Apple Powerbook G4 Battery Recall
- Satire: Dell Laptop Fire Safety Tips (YouTube)
- News/Interview: CNET - Laptop Battery Safety
I’m about to check to see if I qualify for my Powerbook recall…
Update - Nope, I don’t need to return my battery.

Are my Evereadys in danger? I gots some generics from Dollar General too, but they dont fit a Dell, but anyway just in case. In case you dont know, Duracells blow up if you throw ‘em in the fireplace. Thank you.
