Default Drill A Battery

Is it possible to drill a small hole to get rid of a puffed battery? Can you drill a hole, relieve the air pressure, and then seal the hole?

The case is swelled because the lipo cells inside are swelled, drilling a hole in the case would do nothing which is what I think your asking.

Better soak your bad LiPo batterie in a bucket of salt water. It helps stop the electrolytes chemical reaction. Then dispose of it in a proper manner (dangerous waste).
