    Anyone know the best place to dispose of old mods/18650s safely? Preferably around Dublin 7 if possible

    According to this: http://www.dublincity.ie/main-menu-services-water-waste-and-environment-waste-and-recycling-recycling-services/battery

    You can return old batteries to where you bought them from. They will mass recycle them

    If you buy online, then I guess it's up to ourselves, recycle bins for electrical waste? like old phones etc ... maybe stick some black tape on each end beforehand

    Tesco's and the bigger supermarkets usually have battery recycling bins. Good tip on sticking some insulation tape on either end.
