I'm not sure what that is on the head. Are the scratches on the casing deep? Do they go all the way through? Personally, I am paranoid with batteries and have probably tossed out a couple good ones. If the scratches on the casing go through or risk to go through, then no it is not safe. If you are confident they wont, then it depends what that is on the head.

When you are mining batteries from a laptop beggers can't be choosers.

For the most part as I understand it, they aren't marked and you really don't know what you have or how old they are.

Do it at your own risk.

Im using it in my hammer and it doesnt heat up too much at all, so i figured it was safe not to blow up or anything

Oo, I didn't even think to ask what brand of battery it was. I would be very careful with it. If you don't sub ohm, it is probably safe. But new batteries are not expensive. Personally, I would not use an unknown battery for vaping.

When in doubt, throw it oot!
