Razer Blade Stealth 13 2018: New battery only works while plugged in

Wed, 31 Aug 2022 08:16:13 -0700

I just replaced my battery in my razer blade stealth and it works fine while plugged in but says charging and stuck at 97% and when I unplug it it turns off immediately and won't turn on while unplugged. The battery is brand new. The old one was fairly bloated.

Razer Blade Stealth 2017: Where to buy a reliable replacement battery in the UK?

Fri, 08 Dec 2023 12:14:24 -0700

My Razer laptop, purchased in early 2018 and which otherwise runs excellently, has a dead battery. I replaced it with one bought from Alibaba in 2022, and that one died within months. The seller gave me another for free which lasted about a year. Now that one is dying too (dies at 35 percent, only charges to 70 percent, i.e. about an hour of light use, health report changes wildly, sometimes saying over 70 percent, sometimes reporting 40 percent).

I know that iFixit in the US offers replacement batteries for this model. But there are none in stock for the UK store. Where can I buy a battery that isn't e-waste in waiting in the UK? So many sellers of replacement batteries online and on Amazon appear to be scams.

Razer Blade Stealth 2017: Can I case-swap black and white Razer Blade Stealth 13?

Wed, 06 Jul 2022 04:26:16 -0700

Got a 2020 black RZ09-0327 with German keyboard, would like to swap internals with a 2019 white RZ09-03100 with US keyboard. Because of the color and keyboard.

They look same on pix, same dimensions, same ports, screen has same size and res.

The 2020 has a GPU, 2019 only CPU.

Thank you!

Razer Blade Stealth 13 2018: Why does my laptop not power on without being plugged in?

Fri, 01 Oct 2021 11:41:39 -0700

I bought and installed a replacement battery from iFixit. My laptop worked as normal for several days. When I traveled to a different country on vacation, I arrived at my hotel only to find my laptop would not turn on without being plugged in into the charger. I am home now, and still unable to use the laptop without having to be tethered to the charger, defeating the purpose of buying a new battery.

Razer Blade Stealth 2017: How can I repaste this laptop?

Thu, 21 Sep 2023 17:34:45 -0700

I can't seem to find any info online. I have the gunmetal one. I looked at the fan replacement guide available on iFixit but it's not clear how much further it is to get to the cooling block. It could just be under the copper piping to the right of the fans, but I don't want to go and do it without having opened this laptop before. Any help is appreciated.

Razer Blade Stealth 13 (2019): Where do I get replacement keys for this laptop?

Wed, 13 Sep 2023 08:12:04 -0700

I have two broken keys - F2 and F3. If I could find the scissor switch assemblies and replacement rubber nipples that go under the keys, I could fix them fairly easily. Any sources for those parts?

Razer Blade Stealth 2017: Laptop Doesn't work on replacement Battery

Mon, 24 Oct 2022 00:17:44 -0700

I have a Razer Blade Stealth 2017, and the battery was dead showing 255% when plugged in, and completely shutting down when not plugged in. So I swapped the battery with a new one from Ifixit. After the swap I powered up the laptop with it unplugged, and it worked it said 54% battery so I went to do the battery Calibration as the guide says. I plugged it in and left it to charge for a few hours when I got back it was at 90% but it did not say charging anymore so I decided to unplug it, and let it drain. The laptop then instantly powered down, and wouldn't power back up. I am now in a state where I can use the laptop plugged in but cannot unplug it or it instantly powers off. I am unsure why as I have a brand new battery

Razer blade stealth 13 (2019): How do I realign the hinges on my Razer Blade Stealth 13" (2019)?

Tue, 11 Oct 2022 09:06:49 -0700

I recently took my laptop away for work and it took a tumble when it was in my bag. Luckily the laptop itself is working fine but the lid is now sitting off to an angle.

I've taken the back off and now I'm trying to realign the hinge so that it'll sit flush again. Anyone know the best way of doing it?

The images below show that it is a bit of a tight squeeze.

Thanks in advance

Razer Blade Stealth 2017: Battery reporting way more than designed watt hours

Tue, 09 Jan 2024 13:31:27 -0700

I've replaced a battery using one sent by iFixit. It works as expected except for one very strange issue that I assume is to do with calibration.

As you can see on the attached, the battery reports to the system that it has way more than its actual capacity. Like, way more. The design capacity is 53.6 watt hours, not 736.62.

I have attempted to calibrate the battery multiple times. When I first installed it, I charged it to full plus two hours, used it until it auto-hibernated, charged it to full plus two hours again, and then used it until it auto-hibernated again. I then used it as normal.

Within a few days, it started reporting larger and larger capacities. It seems to increase every time it sleeps. Yesterday, before I let it sleep, it said ~180 watt hours. What's going on?

Razer Blade Stealth 2017: Laptop won’t run on replacement battery.

Mon, 31 Jan 2022 13:53:59 -0700

Hello,

I just replaced the battery on my 2017 Razer Blade Stealth. After installing, I was letting it charge all the way before draining to calibrate the battery, but it got stuck at 97%. I figured it was charged all the way and just displaying the amount improperly due to being a new battery, so I decided to unplug my device to begin draining the charge. However, my laptop won’t turn on when not plugged in. I have tried disconnecting the battery and running just on the power cable, and that works. I searched for a driver update and disabled and enabled the battery in device manager. I have also ran the power troubleshooter, which says there are no problems. What can I do to fix this, or did I receive a defective unit? Maybe something else is wrong?

Thank you.

Razer Blade Stealth 13 2018: Automatic repair couldn't complete

Tue, 17 Mar 2020 17:20:32 -0700

Hi, I bought new Razer P6689 and unboxing it. Tried to tun it on first time, but, it displays that ‘Automatic Repairing’, then goes to next screen ‘Diogonising Repair’ then ‘Couldn’t complete repair. I have tried the other option available i.e. advance option- restore, start up repair, reset etc but no joy. I am frustated that it is brand new and just trying to set it up. I am thinking to return it, unless i can find some solution by tomorrow morning from this forum.

I have unplugged, battery out and in again. When plugged in to the wall AC power, I can power it on but i cannot see the battery light on, only power light AC and wifi light on. Thank you all in advance.
