“Because this kind of battery is encrypted …”

So I'm reading the “Battery Replacement Installation Manual” for the battery I just bought [1] and as translated instructions go, it's not that bad. But there are some choice bits though …

“The echo of the phone?”

Feedback? Hearing my own voice echoed back to me? Maybe?

Anyway, carrying on …

I have no clue here. It states that swelling may occur if the temperature exceeds 158°F (70°C), and enter sleep mode if the temperature is too low, although it doesn't state what “too low” means. Fortunately, the battery I received isn't swollen, so I guess it's not encrypted?

“Sundries.” Love it!
