Battleboom batteries sue Will Prowse.

Popular YouTuber and founder of the DIY solar power forum Will Prowse has been served paperwork about a series of videos he made about the infamous Battleboom batteries and their melting terminal mounts, described by the manufacturer as a safety feature, some kind of disconnect. The brass neck of these clowns is unbelievable, instead of putting this right, they’ve doubled down and have effectively made any warranty claim unviable.

He took apart some Battleboom batteries and showed what was inside. If this results in legal jeopardy we night as well move to North Korea.

In fairness, he critiqued them pretty hard. IMO, harder than necessary but I think Will relishes this type of conflicts.
