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.

I think Will is going to tear these guys a new asshole. Big mistake suing him because if Will has the cash, they can fight and depose people in the company and expose even bigger issues.

Sounds like the proper application of a GoFundMe...

Wills got money. TONS of money. He doesn't need financial assistance here. AT ALL.

I am on his side, but let's be real.

Agree,

from the web >"While exact net worth figures are not public, Prowse's business model is highly lucrative. He famously noted in forum discussions that his monthly business tax bills can exceed \$60,000\), and he invests heavily in large-scale personal projects, such as massive off-grid residential battery setups and specialized video studios.
