That will be perfectly safe, at least for power on the ground. It is the control board behind the crack, not swollen lithium cells. Look through the side vents to see if the cells are swollen or not.
There has been a problem with at least one batch of batteries where the springs for the latches push on the plastic and cause a stress crack after a while, I guess that is the cause of your crack.
Checked it anyway! only 40 times charged, can look straight through the vents, nothing to see, just a bubble on the plastic where the crack is, could be one off the stress crack batch you were mentioning...
Wasn't really looking for battery cracks when i check the ac before flight.., good to know, thanks. |
