Perfect. You should be able to find a battery recycling drop off somewhere nearby (sometimes the local dump, or grocery store) They may have packaging directions like wrapping the contacts with electrical tape or putting it in a box before drop off, but that will solve the "I don't want to keep a bomb in my desk drawer" problem.

And this is why I removed the the battery from my K8 Pro a week after it showed up. I wanted to avoid this.

I used a piece of Technora cord to remove mine. Basically I worked it under the battery and just slowly pulled it through the adhesive. Mine wasn’t swollen though so I’m not sure that if you did try something like this if the pressure would make it explode in your face. Good luck 🤞
