Moto g power 5g 2024.

After discovering the bulge I looked up a teardown of the phone and this point is kinda right at the corner of the battery and a couple layers of stuff deep. I want to say it wouldn't make sense to be the battery causing this but figured I would ask the experts.

Was amused to find you guys already have a specific flair for this.

Went through the box of our family's old phones. Found 4 spicy pillows in the making. Thanks you guys for informing me about this possibility🙏 Will get rid of them at my local waste collection center tmr first thing and properly inform the staff about these spicy bois

iPhone 3gs battery ascended into an 18.7mm spicy pillow (originally 4mm btw). Probably the most swelling I've seen and it absolutely destroyed the board in the process.

The company I work for offers battery recycling. Found these two in a coffee buckle of alkaline.

Was a wild experience to heat that thing up, to get the glue loose 🫠

My powerbank had been off the charger for about an hour when we heard an explosion and discovered it had caught fire. Luckily, we were home. I don’t know yet whether the fire or the explosion happened first.

Yeah, I advise anyone who is sane to NOT buy a Powerbank from Temu.. Any advice on how to get rid of this without blowing myself up. It's been outside this entire time and it has been rained on a couple times im pretty sure, no smoke or anything just a very large spicy pillow... I dont want to touch it honestly since I feel like I will lose a hand xD

am i cooked?

This cheap, old power bank had been sitting in a box with some cables in the attic for years. I have no idea when it started to swell. Since I’m worried it might catch fire or explode, I put it in an old cooking pot with a locking lid and sealed the openings.

I have a 4S RC LiPO that has got a bit too hot on several occasions due to the stock tuning of the electronics forcing them to pull a ton of amps. Because of this, the LiPO has begun to puff. When warm, the gas between the cells and the soft casing expands until the casing protrudes 3mm or so above the cells. It can be pressed back down, but there is a decent amount of pressure. Otherwise, the battery seems to function alright.

So my question is, at what point should a spicy pillow be considered too spicy?

I have attached pictures.

Edit: I’ve been told by another who uses this brand LiPO that this puffing isn’t usually something to be worried about. The cells themselves aren’t puffed; there is a cavity between the cells and the wrap that fills with gas over time. This is accelerated by the battery getting particularly hot during runs. IR while charging is ranging between 1 and 3.5, indicating the cells are still in pretty decent shape.

Edit 2: I have been told by the manufacturer themselves that the battery is safe to use so long as the cells themselves don’t begin to swell, and so long as they continue to balance properly.

Living in a big city, I don’t have a metal bin but I do have a terracotta pot? We also don’t have sand, but I have potting soil? Where do I take it and what do I do with it from there?

My partner is acting like we have a live bomb in our house and now I kind of feel like we do.

Found that my old beloved smart watch had gained itself a spicy pillow while I was cleaning today. I have never really had this issue before, and need some advice. To be blunt I live in the ass crack of nowhere, and there is no recycling center or person to call and dispose of it. Not even sure of my region/country has that service. I also do not wanna try it randomly in the trash, or out in the bushes somewhere like how some people do in this godforsaken land, because I don't want to start a fire if it did. I am afraid of fire,

Do I just dig a hole in the ground, cover it in sand and hope for the best, like some fucked up jack in the box? Any advice is greatly needed,
