How To Build A Phone Power Bank Yourself From Damaged Laptop Batteries

Materials Needed/Requirements
==>1. Screw driver

==>2. Nose Pliers (optional for disassembling) 
==>3. Soldering Iron (optional for joining wires) 
==>4. DIY Power bank Case from Aliexpress. Get it here (optional too)
==>5. Spoilt/worn out laptop batteries
==>6. Your Techy brain

Quick Note:
The power bank case you buy, depends on the number and size of the damaged laptop batteries or any other batteries you intend using. The one given above is 18,650mAh lion power bank case. feel free to search and choose the perfect size. Also you can chose to construct one yourself if you'd rather prefer not to import. Though you might need some technical know how to do so. The above is recommended, since it already contains a circuit housing the resistor, transistors, capacitors, etc that is meant to handle the current input and output voltage. A USB port to plug your phones to. So building that yourself could also result to you sacrificing portability.See photo of one a guy built below.

Procedure For Building

==>1. First, disassemble the laptop batteries you've got (see 1st image above). After which you separate the cells inside.

==2. Open the power bank case you bought and arrange the batteries inside accordingly.

==>3. If the laptop battery you have requires joining of wires, join them in a parallel connection (that is positive to positive and negative to negative). Then solder the wires together accordingly with soldering iron.

==>4. Couple and that's it. Charge and flex. But Pls Don't Sell without telling your buyer what's inside LOLs!

NOTE:
Power bank mAh/Capacity: Here we made use of parallel connection. Meaning the amount of the power bank mAh(milli Amp hour) is gotten by summing up the capacity (mAh) of the individual batteries you have. Thereby maintaining the same voltage. Lets assume in one laptop battery, like the one above: you have 6mini batteries of 4mAh each. Using parallel will give a total of 4+4+4+4+4+4=24mAh

To charge the power bank when low, you can make use of an original Android charger to recharge it
