not sure what is more interesting, the detailed information on lithium battery construction, or how they got a CT(cat) scanner, or the idea of having an industrial cat scanner around. those batteries were bizarely cheap and there was prior suggestion that these(others) were actualy fake with empty space or filler, which isn't the case, and all in all they just need to up the precision of there automated processes. nice piece of journalism.

Lumafield is a CT company: https://www.lumafield.com/


Yup! And their whole social media “thing” is doing these kinds of on-topic analysis of (mostly consumer) devices


Good use of an advertising budget, much better than classic ads.


One of the few advertising campaigns that I'll happily read/watch, despite recognizing that it's all advertisement.


It's like a highbrow nerd version of "Will it blend?".


> how they got a CT(cat) scanner

I think they are becoming a lot more prevalent in labs, these days. They aren't the monster devices that many of us may be (unfortunately) familiar with.


They can be a lot smaller when neither dose nor movement is a factor in imaging.


CT scanning is widely used for analysis of batteries to determine safety and failure analysis.
