Rapid drain and unexpected shutdowns do not always begin with the battery.
Battery symptoms include rapid drain, unexpected shutdowns, inaccurate percentage readings, excessive heat, slow performance, and physical swelling. Charging accessories, background activity, software, the port, and board-level power faults can produce similar complaints.
Tell Leon what changed, the exact model when known, what you already tried, and whether files, accounts, deadlines, or business work are involved. That is enough to choose a useful first step.
