I am a little disgusted with myself. I am always telling folks to be careful, and here I do a dumb thing. I killed a perfectly good Sony VTC4.
I bought 2 along with 2 high cap IMR AW a few years ago, never used for their intended purpose, a BTF thing, I forget what that is called. This cell was maybe used 10-15 times. Lately, I had been using it in a bored E2E with z68 and an MN02 as a rather nice room lamp. Last night I actually remember thinking, "that's getting dim. time to swap that cell soon," and proceeded to fell asleep. I didn't notice until about 22 hours later. No protection on these, for whatever reason. Went right into the cell recycle bucket. I think I paid $4 for that, and I know I got at least $4 out of it. But still, I feel bad about it. Poor little thing.
