challenge: how to reassemble a battery with new cells
Hello, recently my laptop's battery life finished, so i tried to replace the cells inside the battery pack.
The computer is a benq joybook r23e and the battery model is BP-8889L
I bought newer rechargeable cells. Exactly the same model.
When i replace all the cells in the same position, one of them get so hot and starts to smell like burning.
I think i'm placing the same position as the original cells because i made a scheme.
the position is:
|[+ -]|[+ -]|[+ -]|
|[xxx]|[xxx]|[xxx]|
|[+ -]|[+ -]|[+ -]|
b____y_____o____r
where | is a metal stripe connected to a cable
and [+ -] is a battery... and characters b, y, o, r are coloured cables connected to the metal stripes (|)(black, yellow, orange and red) and [xxx] are plastic cylinders of unused slots.
So i don't know what i'm doing wrong.
If i can put the batteries without burning it, i just wanna know if i can add 3 more cells to convert the battery from 6 to 9 cells and improve the battery pack.
Thankyou so much for your attention.
