# batteries

With all the technology we have, you still need to power down a device in order to have it's {lipo} batteries charged at relatively controllable temperatures.

That's the reason why removable batteries are a logical thing. That is also the reason why I do not understand from the perspective of fire safety, that volatile power units are permanently sealed in devices.

I have a few obsolete Android devices that are still perfectly usable, for lighter tasks. I refuse to pry them open in order to replace the volatile batteries which are charging at temperatures where the devices need to be shut down. A procedure I cannot do, because the power buttons and the logic integrated circuits behind them are broken. I need to use PPE in order to charge those things safely!

Luckily The European Union got fed up with this sealed battery phenomena and thanks to the Europeans we shall have normal battery separation again in our devices

I can't believe I'm jut learning about a Driven Right Leg Circuit, aka active ground. It seems like this should have been part of #Circuits II. #Electronics
