I Spent 175 Days Testing Lithium-Ion AA Batteries. It Broke Me.

Description

I spent over 150 days figuring out how to test rechargeable Lithium Ion AA batteries. I know way too much about AA batteries now.

In this video, I'll share with you about 1/2 the journey (this is the first BTS video I decided to shoot). Over the last few months I've:

-built 2 custom charge and discharge rigs
-discovered that not all battery holders are the same
-I still hate painting
-most batteries don't give you 1.5V's
-there's different types of rechargeable AA batteries
-figured out how the batteries stack up againts products like the Eneloop and Energizer Lithium batteries

I'm wrapping up the Top 3 video which will drop next week. This video is basically how I've gotten to the Top 3.

Enjoy!
