So, my P3P battery fits too tight. How tight? So tight that we need 2 people to remove the battery. One holding the drone and another pulling the battery. This is a new battery with only 4 charge cycles. And compared to the other battery with 17 charge cycles, it is looser. The new battery and old battery have no difference. I can see no wear and swelling. I tried the silicone lube but to no avail. It gets to the point that I have to use a popsicle stick to pry out the battery. It starts getting really tight after the last grey label. Does anyone have solutions because this is a pain in the arse.

Welcome IRMMZ 1 Are we talking about an original battery?

Yup, both are original batteries.

Tried those, no use. Works on the other battery though.

What you're describing is not normal unless you have a swollen battery.  Since you say the battery is new and not swollen, it might be an aftermarket battery that's made not quite to specs.  Or there is some defect with your OEM DJI battery - or the drone battery compartment too - such as a burr on the plastic or a slight warp.  But that's very rare.  Here are some more ideas:

I found the solution, it is to pull it out with ALL my might and with my hands dry. That seemed to have fixed the problem
