Are you dealing with a melted battleborn battery? Did it die or intermittently shutdown? Smell burning plastic? Please file a report with CPSC: https://www.saferproducts.gov/IncidentReporting

There is currently a class action lawsuit for the 100Ah overheating terminal issue, but it can take a long time! Filling out the report above is the fastest way to create a solution.

Not using the battery in this video? I have found more dangerous issues than what is mentioned in the class action lawsuit! Check out my other battleborn testing videos to see what I have found: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7bvIB2TPsCgD4TxUxf3szWyxRz_HwUd1&si=fo5y0h2UpH2x288o
