Battery Disposal Note: Button/coin batteries can still pose a threat when old or spent. It is important to safely dispose of them immediately to prevent accidental ingestion or harm. Current recycling advice recommends the following: Place sticky tape around both sides of the battery to prevent contact with metal objects. Secure the battery out of reach of children to avoid accidental access. Take the battery to your nearest recycling facility for proper disposal. By following these steps, you help ensure safe and environmentally responsible disposal.
