ego battery... no it didn't blow up

[Jixchel]

This is with my 3 month old ego battery, but when I attach any atty, carto, or even the ego-c set up to it when I click the button it no longer shuts off when I release the button. It will shut itself off when it hits that auto 10 or 15 second shut off time. Is this one of the first signs of the battery reaching it's dying point, or have I gotten liquid into the switch? I'm just going to chuck the battery since I have a few backups, which leads to the next question. How do I dispose of them? Can I throw them into the trash or do I need to dispose of them in a different way?

could just be a stuck switch, mine does that occasionally

the button of the switch pops back out to its normal position, so if it is stuck it is somewhere inside the metal tube. Probably should have added that in lol I do have a battery that the switch will sometimes stick, click it again it goes back to normal, but not this battery.
