Swollen battery

I found an old iPhone in a drawer this morning with other old iPhones (some of which can be salvaged) and this one was so swollen that it popped the screen off. Definitely a fire hazard I hadn’t thought of as much.

Definitely recycle any lithium battery showing signs of swelling as they have a risk of exploding I think.

    When my gym instructor told me I’d be getting swole. This isn’t what I had in mind.

    My first spicy pillow was a PSP battery forgotten in a desk drawer. It never got used besides for a CFW installation one time. Oops.

    Great PSA
    The warning signs can be tough to discern, but also remember battery events usually lead to chemical fires that may need to be stomped out rather than watered down.

    It’s ripe and ready to be juiced.
