BATTERY DESTROYERS CLUB

There was a moment when the topic of lithium-ion battery response burst onto the hazmat scene, quickly becoming a dominant subject. Along with its rise came a plethora of myths and unproven methods. We decided it was crucial to sift through the noise, testing various “theories” and “best practices” to uncover the truth.Here, you’ll find conversations with experts involved in those tests and their discoveries. Our commitment remains strong: to deliver the facts, steering clear of the sales pitch.

How did you guys become so amazing?

Ah, the million-dollar question! After much contemplation (and numerous fan inquiries), we’ve boiled it down to a few theories. First off, let’s talk genetics—think of it as hitting the amazingness jackpot. Picture a Punnett square where every outcome spells ‘A-M-A-Z-I-N-G‘. Yep, that’s us, thanks to a solid lineage of exceptionally cool genes. 

For the nurture over nature crowd, it’s all about our environment. Our work conditions have been the perfect mold, shaping us into the awe-inspiring figures we are today. 

And then, there’s the theory that might just trump them all: maybe it’s not about being amazing at all. Perhaps it’s just our booming voices and the art of speaking with confidence that sets us apart.

Whatever the case, we’re here, we’re loud, and we’re loving every moment of sharing our journey with you!
