sure. why not. you should just try it yourself. youtube videos are nice and intersting to watch, but you have no idea what it's really all about if you haven't tried yourself.Hummina Shadeeba said:... You cant be serious. smack it with a hammer? I imagine you wouldn't get an explosion but more so a really hot fire that was burning like one of those old model rocket engines....
as drbass already said: an empty or near empty battery will do ABSOLUTELY nothing if you nail it, hammer it, burn it ... i tried that. nothing did happen. i also tried with one of those little 1000mah batteries. fully bloated. charged. nailed it. cut one edge with an axe. NOTHING. it got warm. maybe hot. i bit of white smoke came out of it. that was all.
what i didn't do was OVERCHARGING a battery. and in my opinion this is the really dangerous thing.
empty broken cells on the floor? no problem at all. storage charged batteries on the shelf? minimal risk.
