But researchers at Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, N.M. are doing everything they can to destroy the battery. To that end, they recently began dropping a weight equivalent to a newborn elephant from their newly built battery-testing tower that coincidentally corresponds to an adult elephant’s height.
To discharge a battery, you need to connect the hypothetical piece of metal to both terminals of the battery in order to establish a current flow. In order to get a continuing discharge, you need to do this repeatedly.
Short circuiting a battery means excessive current follows an unintended path, due to an abnormal connection with little or no impedance. This condition allows an excessively high current to flow with little resistance. An uncontrolled surge of energy can damage the circuit, and result in overheating, skin burns, fire, and even explosion.
The fastest way is shorting the battery, the best way is to not short the battery, but have a controlled discharge, like you are doing with the lamp. While I will suggest this, with the preface of exercising caution, you could connect a couple lamps together in parallel to reduce the resistance of the circuit.

But researchers at Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, N.M. are doing everything they can to destroy the battery.
Pushing batteries past their limits pushes battery advancement. With more data available, developers can design next-generation energy storage devices with improved performance, reliability and safety, Stanley said. They traditionally used a variety of methods to find the limits of battery endurance.
In this video i will be showing you how to destroy a battery
Specifically, if you want to fully discharge a typical car battery (12V, 60 A hr), all you need is a 20 ohm, 10 W resistor (or equivalent), and connect it across the battery …

Excessive current results in excessive heat which will destroy both passive and active components. Some passive components, such as capacitors have a max voltage rating, …
What happens during over discharge is that it is possible to reverse charge at least one cell in the battery. This will cause a lot of damage to the cell which is reverse …
A 9 V battery on the tongue almost certainly won''t kill. A 9 V battery across the chest with saline solution (or sweat) just might - probably not. A 12 V "car battery" or any high current source …
Thus, the permissible battery drain is equal to the capacity multiplied by a factor of 0.4. Since besides the permissible car battery drain, current consumers such as alarm system and …
What causes these parasitic reactions to kill lithium-ion batteries? There are basically two main factors that speed up the inevitable death of your battery: High temperatures
If you use a well chosen current limiting resistor, your power supply can be rated for any maximum current you like and it won''t destroy the LED. For example, you have a 5 V …
But the charge on your battery will be tiny; the battery-earth system has little capacitance so this would be a very small, brief current. If you drag it across a carpet in winter, …
As you said, the risk of drilling the battery with a drill is too high. Option 2) If there is no power at all, you have to open the device to find the main board and destroy it. And it''s a little complicated process because you have to …
That clarifies why a 3-volt battery is safe, yet the electrical chair is lethal. Dry skin is far more resistant than wet or damaged skin. ... A smaller current can kill an individual if …

A typical car battery will drain in 2-3 weeks and be unable to start your car due to the parasitic draw from the car''s electronics. With the negative terminal disconnected, a healthy car battery …
A short circuit fault inside a battery can release a current thousands of times larger in milliseconds. This can irreparably damage all devices in the external circuit. Avoid …
Boost the display brightness up to the maximum. The higher the brightness, the more battery power your phone will use—especially if you''ve turned off or extended automatic …
A short circuit fault inside a battery can release a current thousands of times larger in milliseconds. This can irreparably damage all devices in the external circuit. Avoid short circuiting a battery in several ways.
To be safe and make sure that you don''t destroy the LED with too much current, round the maximum current down to 25 mA. To calculate the desired resistance, you divide the voltage (3 V) by the current (0.025 A). The …
Your batteries are set to drain faster this winter. Here''s why
Your battery usually has a sticker on it that will let you know if it is a Ni-Cd/NiMH or Lithium-Ion battery. If you can''t see your battery''s information there, try looking up your …
The battery capacity vs discharge is far from linear, and the mAh rating is quoted against a low discharge rate (~0.1*capacity). Secondly your circuit will use as much current as it needs. Trying to limit the current is likely …
