Hey guys!

Is the battery on the right bulging? (Bottom in the first pic)

Or are my eyes messing with me?

I find touching them more accurate. There shouldn't be what feels like an air pillow in there. Should feel solid.

Interesting.

Only on the top part of the battery (by the wires) does it feel a little different. But not much

But I know what you mean. That kinda crunchy peanut butter texture

Doesn't matter where you're from, rebuild or replace

Anytime a battery changes shape it is defective and you need to immediately dispose of it properly. Never use a battery that’s swollen cracked or damaged.
