Google Review · Kepong BranchWhat's going on
Lithium batteries naturally degrade with charge cycles, and MacBook batteries are no exception — you can check your current battery health and cycle count in System Settings. If the trackpad feels like it's lifting on one side, or the bottom case bulges slightly, stop using the device and bring it in immediately; a swollen battery can be a fire risk if left unaddressed. We replace with quality-matched cells and dispose of the old battery safely.
Common signs to look out for
- Battery drains far faster than it used to
- Trackpad appears to lift or feels uneven
- Battery percentage jumps unexpectedly
- “Service Recommended” message in battery settings
- MacBook shuts down even with battery showing charge remaining
What usually causes it
- Natural degradation after hundreds of charge cycles
- Battery cells swelling with age
- Extended time plugged in at 100% in hot environments
- A faulty charging circuit not properly regulating charge
How we diagnose this
Battery health check
We test cycle count and actual remaining capacity in System Settings, not just the percentage shown.
Safety inspection
We check for swelling or case deformation before doing any further work.
Cell replacement
A quality-matched replacement battery is fitted once health is confirmed.
Charge cycle test
We confirm normal charging behaviour before the MacBook is handed back.
