I do not understand your statement "Also, I learned not to put them in an aluminum box " The original boxes were made of aluminum. In addition, I think all aircraft NiCad use aluminum boxes. I am sending the batteries to Recyclers of America. They pay for shipping. I am paying a $0.75 per pound recycling fee. Not low cost for 1500 Lb of batteries.

In fact I bought a couple hundred surpluss BB600 myself and used them in both my EVs. I'm afraid I am lithium spoiled now. The flooded NiCads took too much maintenance and were quite messy. Also, I learned not to put them in an aluminum box :) Can you share details on the logistics of sending them to the recyclers? I still have some dead ones laying around I need to properly dispose of some day. thanks Damon ________________________________ From: EV <ev-boun...@lists.evdl.org> on behalf of ROBERT via EV <ev@lists.evdl.org> Sent: Thursday, November 1, 2018 2:14 PM To: ev@lists.evdl.org Cc: ROBERT Subject: [EVDL] NICAD Batteries I have approximately 1100 NiCad cells. I purchased them about 10 years ago as military surplus. They were used in helicopters. The specifications are: Saft Model No. KO 14KH-B-1. 11 Amp-Hrs. Size: 2.25" W X 5.25" H, and 1" D. If anyone needs these batteries and are willing to pay shipping, you can have them. If not, I am shipping them to the recyclers next week. In addition, I have the battery links. Specifications: 1.5" L X 0.5 " W. Ctr - Ctr hole spacing: 1" Holes dia: 3/16". The links are Ni plate Cu. If anyone needs these links, I will sell them for the price of cooper. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
