do you know if a GPS tracker is built into the battery? Or is only the black box built into the ES400B as a GPS tracker? :D
Definitely no GPS tracker inside...
But don't think you can easyly open the battery and upcycle the nice Samsung INR21700-50E cells inside - the box is made from aluminium and the pack is encased in ~1kg of silicone resin.
You need an angle grinder to remove the shell - be careful no to cut deeper than 2mm or you will slice the cells.
After that you need some heavy equipment to separate the cells from the holder and due to the silicone resin this nearly impossible without damaging the plastic sleeves on the cells.
From start to finish it took me two hours - not worth the hassle:
