it takes one leaky cell to blow the whole works, sure cells can be tossed in...but whos going to empty them once they are chock full of cells? Is there a cell transfer system that moves the spent ones to an internal bulkhead where they will be permanently stored with the same safety measures as toxic wastes stored in concrete?
Interesting enough I had this in mind for awhile...mismatched old cells with enough voltage to power a boost circuit until it drains it dry
compared to lithiums, alkalines won't detonate under reverse charge conditions. :naughty:
