Reply to comment by SquishyOrangeBook in Swollen battery. Any ideas on how I can remove it from the case without bursting it? It looks like it's glued to the case. by Vazh93
Looks like the inside of a keychron K-series to me

Are they known for these issues?

not that I've heard of. I only recognise it because I gave my K8 a silicone pour to give it more heft and less of a hollow sound - and it looked exactly the same as this, even down to the lumps for the two switches (mac/pc and bt/usb) and the gap for usb-c at the far end.

I’ve never heard of silicone in the case, I’ll have to try that out, thanks

It's a fairly popular mod. I've done it a lot and it's a near-necessity for cheap ABS tray mount boards

Lithium-ion batteries are known for this issue in general. It's completely typical for the majority of these batteries that over time they lose capacity and swell up. It's more of a question of when it happens rather than if it happens. If you opened up all your old phones, at least half of them would have a swollen battery
