Hello,

I am using my laptop most of the time on A/C power and have therefor
the battery removed.
Can i place (or remove) the battery when the laptop is turned on on
A/C power or do i realy need to power down?

Note I found some articles on the internet about the pro's and con's
of a battery but did not find any thoughts about (re)placing the
battry when the laptop is on.

Hope somebody can give me an answer.

You are smart to remove the battery when you are using AC power, as the
laptop won't keep overcharging the battery to 4.2v per cell for
starters. And yes, you shouldn't have any problems whatsoever removing
the battery while the laptop is powered on. They are made to do this. As
how can you swap batteries if it couldn't?

I've never seen a laptop on which you could not remove or install a
battery while the laptop was running and connected to it's AC
adapter/charger.
