Question

I whacked a Alkaline AA battery with a brick a few times and it became a little warm or hot. I then covered it with sand. The batteries on a rock and there is no noise or anything coming from it?

I was being a stupid teenager and thought hey... why not.... is it oh no... or is it just i leave the damn battery alone and it won't do anything...

Answer 1

Go back tomorrow and pick it out of the sand and dispose of properly. do not get the battery acid on your hands, but it is not a huge health issue, just a pollution problem.

Answer 2

Not a problem. I have done it several times. Just use gloves for that.
