These are power tool battery packs surplus to requirements.

I'm breaking down the plastic case which is held together by 4 T20 torx screws, pulling out the pack, removing the BMS and ripping off the nickel BUS bars.

And viola, a shit load of samsung 18360 batteries in tip top condition.

Think of a tesla battery pack but smaller.

A lot, lot smaller.. 🤣

And what are you going to do with them? Other than use as shotgun slugs

At the moment im not sure. Definitely use some to power a few meshtastic nodes. But that wont take many.

After that either several back up battery banks for the family or one big bank for off grid charging of tools etc when i'm down the garden.
