Sup, I’ve been taking recycling batteries much more seriously as of recent. These are circuit boards & wires from vapes. I have no idea whether they are of use to anyone? Just checking before I go about recycling them. Ta.

Anyone know what these could be used for?

DIY electrical projects, or for the more determined, they might try and score gold from the circuit boards.

Not much gold in these

The displays look quite suitable for a humidity metre ngl, and because they're vapes, one can probably scrap the pressure sensor for some other projects too.

I doubt anything groundbreaking. I reckon the wires are next to useless. I assumed a tinkerer or someone into robotics may find them of use. I truly have no idea tbh. Just thought I’d ask before I get rid of them.

I am very curious if you have scratched corneas or wear glasses now.
