    Default Mad Max Style Things to do with dead cell phone batteries

    So there's a video where these folks are using glass marbles in a 12 gauge and the Nokia cell phone battery stops it.

    Hmmm. If you google-finger a bit, you can find instances where police badges (roughly the same density as cell phone batteries) have stopped rounds.

    Two bullets ricocheted off two officers’ badges – saving their lives – in two separate remarkable incidents in the United States within hours of each other.

    Hmmm.

    A jack of plate is a type of armour made up of small iron plates sewn between layers of felt and canvas. They were commonly referred to simply as a "jack" (although this could also refer to any outer garment). This type of armour was used by common Medieval European soldiers as well as by the rebel peasants known as Jacquerie.[1] The present day equivalent is perhaps a bullet-proof vest.

    What's your budget? Bulletsafe makes pretty good stuff and they are at the cheaper end.

    If you can sew and you start hoarding dead batteries now, you'll have quite the bullet resistant fashion statement when the Glocktastic-toting zombies show up.

    Please video tape the drilling of the holes through the battery packs for assembling into a Jack.
    Rules are written in the stone,
    Break the rules and you get no bones,
    all you get is ridicule, laughter,
    and a trip to the house of pain.

    Yes, the reality of what can happen to lithium ion batteries when punctured seems to not have been considered by the OP
