Hello to all,
When i am harvesting cells from ebike battery's, i smell that sweet smell of li ion.
I know those cells are no good anymore, ----> bucket of salt water.
But what is the health hazard with those li ion gasses/fumes?
First i take the battery apart, then i take a ankle grinder to thin out the nickel strip, i dont touch the cell it self.
So i can take the nickel strip of more easy, without damaging the cells
If i dont use an angle grinder i lose 50-60% of my cells, now a 5-10%
But there must be other ways than to use a ankle grinder?
If i grind into the cell outer walls, some paint/solder? to prevent rust/oxidising?
When i finish grinding in the shed i take them inside the house for futher proses.
So how harmfull are those gasses when a cell vents/ or a hole was made when i take of the strip?
With best regards Igor
