I took apart a laptop battery to see if I could salvage any good cells-- nope they all measure less than 50% of their rated capacity. I now have 12 cells I don't know what to do with. I've heard throwing them in the household garbage is a bad idea, but I called nearby recycling places and nobody takes them.
I also have a couple old sealed lead acid batteries from a computer UPS that I don't want to throw away either. Tried places that take car batteries, they won't touch them even after telling them they're essentially the same thing.
What do you guys do with this stuff?
