found a swollen battery in a controller 😬 it's stuck w/a foam pad but the adhesive doesn't seem very strong, would it be safe to wiggle it to try and unstick it? or could that risk damaging it? would I be better trying to get something plastic under the pad on the PCB side and unstick it that way?

@lion Best to get something plastic underneath it to gently lever or wiggle it away. if it's discharrged then the risk of fire if it tears is low.
