Here are some pictures before I began to carefully take it apart;

Inside you will notice orange and green "tubes". Those are actual cells in groups of six shrink wrapped together. There appear to be 22 "tubes" all together.


From the top, this is considered to be one cell from a Honda Hybrid.


This is the business end. It is where all the magic happens. Very neat and I can tell that there was quite a bit of thought that went into designing these cells. There is also a current sensor on the negative lead. Everything looks much much neater then right now, I did take some stuff off and some wires are loose.


This little gem is there to remind me that I will indeed be "Killed or hurt".. Wish me luck guys


Im off to the hardware store to pickup a long socket. Each length of cells is connected to the main frame by a bolt deep inside the business end. Hopefully that is all I will require.. That and a first aid kit..

I will update more soon. I may also pickup a new camera to get better pictures.
