    Disconnect the power adapter. Connect only the battery (with some charge on it).

    Measure the voltage to ground on each pin of the mosfet @ PQ8802.

    source (1-2-3)
    gate (4)
    drain (5-6-7-8)

            Lenovo T460 Only Charges on One Charger
            by motormayhem
            Laptop Question
            Hello,
            I'm working on a Lenovo T460 that has been having trouble charging as of late. Its worked well since I've owned it for a few years. When I went to use it the other day it was dead and wouldn't turn on (was sitting on an Anker 65W GaN charger). After some fiddling with the charger I got it to turn on and start charging, but seemed like the charger was not working as it should (took a few plug and unplug cycles to get it to start charging).

            A day later it was dead again and wouldn't boot/charge no matter what I did. No lights or anything when...

            ISL88739AHRZ ISL88739 Laptop Battery Charger Datasheet
            by Document Archive
            The ISL88739 & ISL88739AHRZ are a highly versatile combo battery charger
            configurable for operating as either a Hybrid Power Boost (HPB)
            charger or a Narrow VDC (NVDC) charger, supporting 2-, 3-, or
            4-cell batteries. Both configurations allow the battery to work with
            the adapter together to supply the system load when it exceeds
            the adapter capability, referred to as system Turbo mode. HPB
            charger configuration reverse-boosts battery energy to the system
            bus to help the adapter provide the system power in Turbo mode.
            NVDC charger configuration...

            how to prevent a connected charger from draining battery when not charging?
            by flat-earther
            I have an RC radio handset(Taranis QX7) which doesn't have internal battery charger which means I had to remove the battery every time I needed to charge it.
            So to improve it, I added a 15W USB-C charger board(link) inside and soldered it to the same connector on the PCB where the battery plugs into, great, now I can simply charge it with a USB-C cable.

            but the problem I found is that after the radio sat for two weeks without being used the 2S 18650 battery that I'm using was at 4.2V!
            So the battery is backfeeding the charger and being drained.

            How can I prevent...

            Dell Inspiron 7567 LA-D993P odd charger issue
            by Johndill
            Hi, I have a Dell Inspiron 7567 LA-D993P that I've just got running.
            There was corrosion around PU1503 which shorted PC1518 & blew PL1504. (Reference pictures attached)
            I've replaced PC1518 & PL1504 & the laptop is now running however I now have another issue.

            Here are the tested scenarios:

            1. With the laptop running on battery, I plug in the 150W charger & the charger shuts off (no LED, protection mode) but the laptop remains running on battery.

            2. With the laptop off, plug in charger (LED says on) & the front charging...

            by coasterghost
            For Badcaps Readers, Please note that I am hopefully going to present this same message to Lenovo to see if they have any insight to the matter as well and figured to share the entirety here for clarification. The System is out of warranty as it is but does have the option to have it extended.
