Tom, it's done. I used a screwdriver at the connector and spread the case apart a little bit. From there I used small lineman's pliers, carefully peeling away the casing. After I removed the batteries, I rolled off the welded tabs with a pair of needle nose pliers. I used a Dremel to smooth out the burrs on the + and - connections., then cleaned the batteries. I didn't damage any of them. I've got 4 of them charging now.
Actually I’m running out of room on my shelf… especially with another 12 coming from Aliexpress spring festival sale :weary:
look like I have to do some spring cleaning sale too
sure Glenn… BBQ at night? so we have excuse to use our flashlights lol…j/k yeah sure let me know when is good for you and I’ll check the schedule with the wifey
Willing ? Only at night though - we'll provide the lights! Ohh - I'll definitely bring the beers. Have you been to the Forest Pork store in your neighborhood? Wow - my favorite BBQ meats, but I'm into the German sausages, but they got lots of other goodies to grill. Even their hot dogs are the best around...
Kenny, that would make sense. Barbeques are always so much better at night anyway. My neighbors think I'm crazy spending so much money on this hobby. Having you here will convince them that I'm normal....lol!! just kidding. Your collection completely blew my mind! Seriously did! Anyway, it would be great to meet you in person, hopefully Tom too. Let's plan for sometime this summer, after I stain my backyard deck, and my lawn looking good. I like things looking perfect before I meet new people..
LOL! Tom, I was busy writing my response to Kenny, and there you are responding before me! Yeah, it would be so cool to meet you. You are one smart guy. I have total respect for you my friend. As far as food, you name it, I'll get it. As far as drinking, I'm a total pro!
Kenny, it's cool. I'm happy with my 30+ collection...well I was until... yeah, guys like you make me............WANT TO BUY MORE FLASHLIGHTS!!!! YOU SUCK! lol!!
