~Dearest~ Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 From The Dell Web site: BATTERY RECALL (From Dearest: If your notebook is listed here and is charging / plugged in, disconnect it immediately) Dear Dell Customer, Dell has identified a potential issue associated with certain batteries sold with Dell Latitude?, Inspiron?, XPS? and Dell Precision Mobile Workstation? notebook computers. In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and other regulatory agencies, Dell is voluntarily recalling certain Dell-branded batteries with cells manufactured by Sony and offering free replacements for these batteries.

Potentially affected batteries were sold with the following models of Dell notebook computers or separately as secondary batteries: Latitude: D410, D500, D505, D510, D520, D600, D610, D620, D800, D810 Inspiron: 500M, 510M, 600M, 700M, 710M, 6000, 6400, 8500, 8600, 9100, 9200, 9300, 9400, E1505 (mine), E1705 Precision: M20, M60, M70, M90 XPS: XPS, XPS Gen2, XPS M170, XPS M1710 Read more here: Source: https://www.dellbatteryprogram.com/Default.aspx?LN=en-US Also, be sure to click on the link at the bottom of the article that says, How To Identify Your Recalled Battery Pack Dearest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
