Where I worked was a city run recycling plant/second hand store/dumping ground for people pathologically unable to get a job facility. They did everything from disassembling old office equipment and houses to fixing up furniture and toys people throw away and sell it on. If you could make a robot that recognizes every battery powered thing on the market and and inserts the right battery to test its function I'm sure they'd take it.
If it's cheap enough that is. Heh, I worked for 30 SEK per day. (About 5 USD.) It actually cost me more than that to take the bus there and back, the last two years.
(And now you're wondering what I did there. It was not a job per se, but an experimental get disabled people out of the house and meeting people project sort of thing. I really only met my supervisors, but they were nice enough to justify going there.)
