And the label doesn't say anything about it, doesn't have the "don't throw in the trash" logo.

Those LEDs are glued in, there's no way to remove batteries before discarding the item

On models without a charge port, some of the batteries aren't even flat when the pods are burnt out 🤷‍♂️

Worst i've read is around 3.8v under load, which is roughly 60% full... that would be a very destructive result compressed in the back of a garbage truck.

Been harvesting these so far but don't have enough projects to use them in.
