@VoxSomniator well if you open it properly you can avoid the fire part
I've taken apart C cells before to get manganese dioxide
@VoxSomniator No, manganese dioxide is comparatively safe. The fire is (in alkaline primary cells at least) often just due to overheating from a short-circuit, iirc
now if you open up a lithium-polymer battery, then you can expect fire. though you can avoid the fire with some extreme care or a nitrogen atmosphere
@Felthry Ohh, I see. I'm no expert but I know lithium-polymer batteries are the excitable sort, hah
@Felthry Cool!
Manganese dioxide? You mean...
Fire Juice?
