We put it outside in a snow pile away from buildings, and by the end of the meeting it had melted a 3' radius in the snow. This was with the old style bateries, but regardless, you don't take chances with chemicals. Get rid of it! (recycled, of course)

hmmm... How many batteries would it take to clear a Minnesota driveway in January?
