The battery doesn't look bloated. Regardless, it is quarantined outside, in a concrete tiles area.

It also has a #microphone for listening out for “aggression,” gunshots, & keywords such as someone calling for help, a feature that to Vasquez-Garcia immediately raised concerns of more intrusive #surveillance.
