Help batteries stuck

[conanthewarrior]

hi every one, know I’ve been here a while but things have changed so feel this should go here.

I have some batteries stuck in two cuboids- they was snug going in but seemed ok but no, the mod wants to keep them.

I’ve tried holding them and firmly moving my hand downward motion, even tried some needle nose pliers to try and grab the wrap, that just slips and removed a piece of wrap so do not want to keep doing that.

Any advice how to get batteries out of the cuboid would be much appreciated, as I only have a few sets left of married cells.

Thank you all, Conan

Might have to sacrifice the wrap.

@conanthewarrior Take it you mean this cuboid ?

Yeah that’s the ones, I had forgot how they could grip batteries!

In what way mate? I can’t seem to get any grip at all, I don’t mind if the wraps get ruined as I have plenty of battery shrink wrap left.

I just can’t figure out a way to grip them at all

Mech magnets, got any Purges you can cannibalise for the job?

I still have my (silver) cuboid (take it you mean the original one with the display on the side) and use it still but not had a problem with the batteries getting stuck ever (use samsung 25R).

I think you can unscrew the top plate (two screws on it as i look now) and get access that way to maybe push the batteries out from the top ?

Yeah those are the ones, one is running arctic fox the other stock firmware.

As it’s late I will check if this works tomorrow, if it does thank you, you are a legend

Take 1 towel and roll it as tight as you can and a pillow to catch the cells. Place the roll in front of the pillow and hold the mod with cells facing downwards!
Slam your hand downwards so your wrist hits the roll the mod will stop but conservation of momentum says the cells will try to keep moving forward and should come loose!
Same principle as a car wreck! Everything inside tries to keep going forward when the car stops!
