Is it safe to remove the stickers off IC3's?

It's already peeling off so...would it do any harm?

thanks

shouldn't

The only problem I could forsee would be that they wouldn't fit as snugly as before.

Other than identification issues, it shouldn't hurt. Just make sure you don't have other brands of batteries without labels they could get mixed up with.

Like I said, it probably reduced the circumference of it and it's not making good contact with the charger now. Wrap some masking tape around it once or twice, that should work.

no shrink wrap

shrink wrap has a tendancy to melt and uh...shrink when heated, so I would stick with tape.

I can't get them to charge unless I tape the sitkcer on the bat.

I can run them in the car w/o the sticker though.

Isn't the outer shell connected to the negative eleectrode? I think there may be some danger of short circuiting your batteries, because if just peeling the insulative stickers off of your batteries can make them cool off much faster, I haven't seen anybody do it yet. I'd leave them on if I were you... Maybe they won't charge because they're short circuiting in the charger...

I'd say get some shrinkwrap and cover the cells, then shrink it with a hairdryer or lighter.. Electrical tape might be too thick and I'm concerned with the durability of scotch tape...

There's something special about the sticker. I've tried black, masking, and scotch tape.

probably because it's metal based and not a paper based sticker, so it conducts where-as the other things you've tried doesn't. Thanks for letting as know this though, if my stickers start to peel, I'll break out the ole' super-glue before it gets too bad!
