Dell Inspiron 15 5577 Gaming Battery Replacement

Introduction

The battery of the Dell Inspiron 15 5577 Gaming is used to maintain charge after it has been unplugged. Over time, laptop batteries will naturally be less effective at storing charge. If the loss of effectiveness has become a problem to the point of very little or no held charge, then a replacement will be needed.

For your safety, discharge your battery below 25% before disassembling your device. This reduces the risk of a dangerous thermal event if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
