Is it supposed to bulge like that?

Nov 8, 2007 Brainwaves

It was pretty tame in the grand scheme of things, but apologies all the same if i set off any content filters at work with the title. :-P

Yvonne has been having trouble charging her cell phone battery lately.

It won’t always keep a charge in it after reporting itself as fully charged, and sometimes appears to drain while the phone is off. She didn’t want to have to pay Bell (her Canadian cell carrier) for a new battery, so she was opting to just live with it.

The other day, I took the battery off the phone to see what model it was, then looked back at the battery itself.

“Hey, Yvonne? Is the battery supposed to bulge in the back like that?”

Her new battery arrived in the mail yesterday.

    Well, I have had the phone for 3 1/2 years now and it's been in a leather case the whole time, so I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. At least it hasn't caught fire yet.
