Battery loose??

[usccharles]

can someone do me a favor and shake your battery? one of my 3 batteries, when i shake the battery, something is loose inside. i hear it clinking around. is this normal? my shop says its normal because his battery does it too.

what about yours?

thanks

nope,
i have two, and nothing sounds from them when shaken....

I also have two and neither make a sound when shaken.

I'd be a little wary of a li-ion battery with possible internal damage, given that lithium doesn't react well to moisture.

you know whats weird? my shaky battery doesn't rattle at all when i pull it off the charger with a full charge. but i let it sit for a while and it rattles when i shake it later... strange. 😕

when the bsttery chsrges it heats up and possibly expands. when it has sat for a while it cools and shrinks. neither of mine rsttle.
