Decided to give my old 2015 mbp a past lease on life with a new battery. The ALU body had actually started to deform from the swell of the battery.
Sometimes couldn't even click the trackpad properly anymore.
Closing the lid was impossible, it just stood there with a 3 cm gap.
The amount of energy needed to warp an ALU body like that... Scary stuff.

For the amount of money this cost, it ought to reach 10 years of usage tho. So I opened her up and holy moly.
