With proper matching, capacity testing and balancing, discarded electronics make great cell sources as long as one minds the charge/discharge rating.
I’ve built a couple powerbanks, charging systems for my remote mounted ADSB monitor, batteries for DIY speakers, added capacity to battery operated lights and more.
He goes into that a bit. He had to make a “balancing circuit” (basically just resistors between the batteries) to prevent the batteries from overheating when they’re first connected to each other.
I would legit pay for some solution to this....
Looks like it's about half bolt by weight to make sure all those spring connectors stay solid. Guy needs a battery welder or something.
