Haven't seen a single-use #vape device in this form factor before. Found discarded in the grass along the side of a public footpath

Internal #LithiumPolymer battery is rechargeable via USB-C but the tank is not refillable. It has a voltage of 3.7V

Lipoly battery in this crushed Packman branded vape device was fully charged when I found it in a carpark last night

There is a USB-C port for recharging. The atomizer tank was already missing so cannot tell if it was intended to be refillable. Judging from the vape brand's website it was probably disposable

Found all these disposable #Vape devices by just walking into town and back today. Passed by a few that were little more than shattered remains in the road. Even the run overs might still have salvageable electronics -- the pressure sensor can be repurposed as a capacitive touch switch

At this rate I'll easily exceed the number I found last year.

Look at how small the #lithiumPolymer battery is in relation to the size of the disposable #VapePen
1.48Wh (400mAh 3.7V)

Might be useful should I need to replace another battery in some wireless device, assuming I can recharge it - voltage is reading very low 1.2V

Didn't see any #VapePens over Easter vacation then suddenly found 7 in the last few days. Is it because their users (kids and parents) have returned from holidays? Or is it coincidental? - the council has just cut the grass where some of these might have been hiding.

I've been finding many more Crystal brand disposable #VapePens discarded on the street this year. They are becoming nearly as frequent as those ELFBAR 600 #vape devices that I found so often last year. #litter #waste #BatteryHarvesting #ecigarette

Very addicting this #vape device habit of mine.

I cannot seem to stop myself taking apart single-use "disposable" #ecigarette vaping pens that I find discarded in the streets in order to salvage the components, namely the rechargeable #LithiumPolymer batteries that they use, in most cases only once.

Tossed many non-viable ones into the battery recycling bins

And I still have a backlog of 24 more pens to disassemble!

I have salvaged so many lithium batteries from the streets around me that I need to make specially designed storage solutions for them
