@streetartutopia actually #Cobalt is part of #LithiumIon & #LithiumPolymer #batteries, and thst stuff is basically a "#BloodMineral"…
Schlaf ist überbewertetIch hab vor, mir für den #zenbook, einen neuen #akku zu leisten.
Hat jemand #Erfahrung mit Nachbauten von Drittherstellern, speziell #Lithiumpolymer für #Notebook?
Hat wer schon mal Akkus von #greencell in Gebrauch gehabt?
@RikerGoogling no, all #LithiumIon and #lithiumPolymer batteries are banned due to being explosive hazards!
@midgephoto @multiburst In fact, the unsafety of #LithiumIon and #LithiumPolymer batteries is why fire departments and EMS still use diesel engines in their vehicles, because they'd have to function and be refuelable even when a storm killed the power grid...
#Methanol would be a good replacement for these...
Same with any form of contractors or assistance services that need to be ready at a moments' notice to drive to a client / patient in need.

@[email protected] @[email protected] Then you know nothing. (Methanol is a nice-enough fuel, but liberates CO2, which would be a crazy substitution) You may care to consider doctors doing their rounds, District Nurses, cleaners, electricians ...
BornachThe tiny 400mAh #LithiumPolymer #battery in this cheap #Bluetooth #speaker turned into a puffed up pillow. I've replaced it with a 350mAh one I salvaged from a single-use disposable #vape device. In spite of the lower capacity, it is significantly larger than the original battery. Hope it can still fit in the available space.
Also fitted a JST connector to the speaker wires in case I need to disassemble again for a future #repair.
The problem is inherent in the design of non - #ToolFree #replaceable #LithiumIon and #LithiumPolymer batteries AND the fact that this #dangerous #Battery design is even legal.
This problem doesn't exist with #LiFePO4 cells and those ain't that bad either...
In fact, they won't become #DangerPillow|s nor age terribly and they hold longer on lower partial discharges...

@dragonarchitect Exactly this is why #BEV|s with #LithiumIon & #LithiumPolymer batteries are in my eyes a totally bad and unfixable design...
If we don't want combustion engines, we shure as hell should look into #FuelCells, espechally #Methanol (#MRFC) which solve the #capacity / #RangeAnxiety, #refueling / #ChargingAnxiety and #EnergyDensity as well as #Distribution problem elegantly...
After all, Methanol handles just like #gasoline in terms of #safety except it's safer for the user and envoirment than fully-synthetic #E85 #RacingFuel...
Unlike #Hydrogen-#FuelCell it also saves weight and complexity because there isn't some 700bar high-pressure gas system and tanks that are inherently leaky (cuz Hydrogen!)...
Continuing the theme of disposable #vapes disguised as beverages, these take the shape of sports water bottles. Each has a USB-C port for recharging the 600mAh #lithiumPolymer battery.
There is an inner shell protecting the battery so it is undamaged despite the case being cracked open by force -- likely stomped on or run over by car. But likely suffered internal damage from a very brutal recharging regime.
