Dell Recalling Laptops for Overheating Batteries

Filed under: News — Chris @ 5:03 pm

Bad news for Dell on their laptop lines. They’re recalling an obnoxious number of laptop batteries across three popular Dell lines. The following laptops are subject to the recall:

Latitude D410, D505, D510, D600, D610, D800, D810 notebooks; the Inspiron 510M, 600M, 6000, 8600, 9200, 9300, XPS Gen 2 notebooks; and the Precision M20 and M70 mobile workstations.

Ouch. I’ve seen what an oveheating laptop battery can do. Lithium fueled fires are *not* something you want in the house, so if you’re affected by this get a replacement ASAP.
