Bought the cheap empty power banks, and use those cells in there, especially the lower capacity ones, which i use with a power bank and USB plug in light as a torch. Great and simple way to get a cheap long lasting torch, and even low capacity cells will provide hours of light easily.

This video is very interesting and useful, recicling and reuse is a good idea. The battery's packs is in all dispositives. I try to do that, sure.

Hi there. Nice video ! Do you think it is worth the effort of compiling many of them to make a high capacity 12v battery ? (Like a car battery ?) Thanks.

Well that definately depends on how much your time is valued

You suppose to show how to open the laptop batteries and harvest them then that would be great man ;)

[@igrewold]

simple, fabricate an exacto knife soldiering iron tip
get a sponge, wet it with little water, and wipe that tip on it both sides.
it is not tuff
use a nail same size as soldering iron tip, weld the blade on it

[@igrewold]

maybe wet/damp tissues work for cleaning the tip too
