Im gonna defer to the mooch

How did this salt water thing ever get started?
Never, ever use this method.

We don’t need to discharge the packs in the first place. Just tape them up.
Salt water discharging is incredibly slow and causes electrolysis destruction of the tabs, exposing the inside of the cells and creating toxic sludge water if you let it go far enough, and never fully discharges the cells anyway. If the tabs are gone we have no way of confirming that the cells are discharged either.

It’s just not needed.
