I’ve had my asus RoG laptop for almost 5 years now. The battery is inside the laptop and isn’t easy to remove. I’d need to take it apart. Anyways, just recently I’ve noticed my battery charge isn’t at 100% when fully plugged in. I’ve never had it unplugged to use it in it’s full life span.*

I went on vacation this week and forgot my charging cable. So I went through a old box and found a plug that fit but wasn’t thinking I could damage my laptop. It’s been a stressful week and my mind has been mush. So when I attempted to plug it in it instantly powered down. *Now home and with my original cord, my battery led light on the front of the laptop remains a soild orange light for the battery. It powers up for a few seconds.. then Powers off. Now it won’t even power on like the battery is dead. Did I fry my battery? Or something worse?!
