Is there there anything wrong in using the battery that was drop and have a dent on it. I drop my macbook battery when I open it up to upgrade my hdd and it left huge dent on it. I'm not worry about how the dent looks on my battery because it a battery is cover by the lid, but I am more concern about the battery performance or the life of it. Like... would a dent battery burn up my mac and stuff?

Since I dropped it 4 days ago, I've been using my macbook just fine, it not too hot, battery is about 2.5 to 3.5 hours with factory default power setting setting. Since nothing is wrong now it wont be likely to occur in the future right?
 
You should be fine, though that's not to say something can't happen. But more than likely, it voided your warranty on most repairs.
