    A76 battery, button style

    Does anyone know if you can recycle these and get money for them?

    Energizer A76 - battery - LR44 - manganese - A76BPZ - Standard Batteries - CDW.com

    the ones I have are do not say energizer on them.
    I'm assuming most people just throw them away.

    Say I could get 1000 of them, all in a bucket.... then what?



    I'm sure at my own cost, i could pay to take them to someone who can properly take care of them...
    but... sure I recycle when and where I can... put paying money?

    the idea is to recycle, help the earth and get paid, right?

    thanks

    Can't answer your question, but would advise against throwing them in a bucket as they may short out and overheat.

    I was thinking somebody on here bought silver oxide batteries. But I dont think anybody buys the alks or mags. would take a crap load of hearing aide batteries to fill up a bucket. lol

    so I found this: (crazy!?!??)

    they broke down the make up of those type of batteries ...

    yeah, I saw somewhere that oxide is good for recycle, but the other kind are not?
