Recovering 18650 batteries - Part 1

 Hoping to power the 12V Garden Sentry from 18650 Batteries (3.7V li-ion rechargeable cells). We have two drill battery packs and a laptop battery.

Dead Ozito battery pack.












Torx bit required to remove the bottom screws.


Unsolder the spot welded straps.

Now for the other side.

Took a while to get the batteries out of the holder.

Five batteries and I suspect one of them is dead.

Yep one dead so hopefully we have a battery pack to power the 12V Garden Sentry.

Time will tell... fingers crossed.




More batteries here from the 2nd drill pack and laptop battery.

Four more that should be OK.

More to come...
