It does. And needs to be insulated. If the metal case is exposed.If you are OK with the scratched cell, I would make sure that the wound is repaired with some kind of insulation. I have read that the outer aluminum case carries positive voltage.
Could you please use your multi meter to confirm this?
I just test it and you are correct it does carry positive voltage. Well the scratch is small not sure if I wanna talk to 18650 again about it. I will be using epoxy boards between the cells or I can get heat shrink wrap and install it over the cell. I will decide once I see the new cell tomorrow.
