[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1829693, member: 396914"] No way to check for swelling batteries with a meter, but if you have a straightedge, or ruler, put it across the portable from side to side just above the trackpad and below the keys. It should touch the case all the way across, totally flat. A swelling battery will push up a bit, leaving a bit of a hump in the middle. You can do the same test on the back as well, as the battery will put the back of the unit out as well. [/QUOTE]
