Hey, I have an xps laptop. My grandfather freaked out over the dell batter recall and made me take my battery out of my laptop. I am now running on the plug, but I have noticed that the bottom of my laptop is VERY hot. Is it possible that the absence of the battery in my laptop is not allowing heat to flow properly and thus causing it to be hot?
 
I didn't know your could remove the battery and still be able to run the laptop. But anyways, I don't see how the battery could be involved in making the laptop cooler as the battery only produces heat it doesn't really absorb any. You're prolly just touching areas that were normally guarded by the battery but now aren't or something like that...
 
Well, it's DC, so without the battery, the remaining energy that's supposed to be charging it is given off as heat maybe.
