Nice trick but there’s a reason the charger is designed to not do what you’re getting it to do. Preventing explosions and such. I’d recommend looking up why/how the chemistries are different at low voltage so you can ride the line more safely
I relate so hard. Honestly LED’s are nothing compared to the fucking laser headlights that now exist in Volvo models and others. Yes, you read that right, actual lasers.
I’ve been on the receiving end and actually had to pull over for a minute just to survive (ie not crash due to complete blindness from being flasbanged). Laser headlights should be illegal yesterday. The permanent damage from exposure again and again over time is going to cause long-term and slowly emerging vision problems theoughout the population. Seriously.
The ammo can is a solid idea, wish I thought of that myself. That would raise the safety factor enough for me to give it a try once or twice as well. Still, covered outdoors area or similar. Agreed on having a healthy fear/respect for big cells, it’s wild how much power we can fit in a battery these days and even more so to watch it escape.
