Re: [RE-wrenches] recycling AGM batteries

[Jay via RE-wrenches]

It’s so confusing  The info I got was from an OEM that does actual recycling/ melting.  I don’t know if other oems use similar ingredients  Jay On Aug 20, 2025, at 4:37 PM, Roy Butler via RE-wrenches <re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org> wrote:  Interstate Battery takes mine.

If they don't come thru I guess plan B might be to flush them, get the lead out, and make more bullets for my 45 long colt (ought to be several thousand rounds).
