Austin (TX) - After several reports of self-combusting laptops, Dell is recalling millions of lithium-ion batteries. More than 4.1 million batteries for the Dell Latitude, Inspiron and Precision notebooks are being recalled. The batteries were made by Sony and were sold between April 2004 and July 18, 2006.

There have been several recent reports of Dell laptops bursting into fire. Just a few weeks ago, one of our forum readers posted up his story of a coworker's laptop bursting into flame. Another Dell laptop caught on fire during a conference in Osaka Japan back in June. No injuries have been reported in the blazes.

Dell will officially announce the recall tomorrow and customers will be able to sign up for replacement batteries.


Someone should forward this to Sharikabob, as he was soooo sure it was the Intel CPUs "exploding"

I wonder if they are replacing the laptops that went up in flames, or sending those folks a battery that they can use in their future Dell purchase.

Dunno, article didnt mention. I would hope they do, at least out of good faith towards their customers.

Yeah, companies tend to fear things that can cause liability lawsuits to leveled against them.

Because of "tricks" for power conservation, it could be possible that throttling of the CPU could cause an overvolt condition that in turn causes the phase differential to flux and cause a feedback that mixes minute particles in the conductance circuit.


JUST KIDDING. :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p

You almost caught me. I was already clicking the "quote" button to explain (again) the problems inherent to Li batteries as I saw the "Just kidding" line.

Almost.

Keep at it. I am far from perfect and if you keep trying, you will catch me :wink:


For the moment.. Peace

I'm 90% convinced he is just a social experiment. Some guy yanking peoples' chains to see how far he can go.

Either that, or he's simply a liar who makes stuff up and never goes back to admit he was 100% wrong. Usual rabble rouser tactics.

In either case, the best policy is to ignore it. You'll get the occasional "I know he's full of it but he sometimes posts good info". No. He _never_ posts good info. It's all lies, half-truths, or ridiculous theories that are proved wrong time and time again.

He'll probably just find some method of contorting the facts in such a way as to blame Intels processors for causing the batteries to be faulty. Then he'll conclude by saying this will accelerate Intels decline into bankruptcy

the problem with him is that some poor unknowledgable person is going to read his trash and make a purchase without all the facts, potentially wasting some money on a "second best" purchase because this "expert" with a "phd" said that intel is "crap" and AMD is "king".

Allow me to appologize to Spud, as I can think of no better response than his, and as such must use it.

I can't believe this. This is Intel's doing. They paid off Dell to say it was the batteries.
