  1. My 2013 Razer Blade is starting to show signs of damage from general use. Often the battery indicates that it is “plugged in, not charging”. When the battery reaches around 1%, the laptop powers down due to a lack of power even when plugged in. To my knowledge, the Razer cannot be instructed to run via AC only. Would removing the battery bring about the desired effect of forcing the laptop to run off AC and preventing power down due to insufficient battery charge?
