A lot of named items carry others items inside of.

Even those super TESLA battery's are mainly chockers with Panasonic 18650
Li-Ion cells that we run the majority of LED torches with
Sanyo. Sony. LG, etc. Mostly run on Panasonic cells
Even the custom hand built units, Just better soldering and packing is all.

.Same as those E Bikes too, (I believe around 50 of them in there).

A lot of us get ex Laptop battery Packs and strip them.
Most have Panasonic or LG 18650 Flat tops in there. 6 or 8 off.

18650,s run near half the worlds "Rechargable" battery powered items nowadays,

It's an interesting read.
Todays modern mobile power designs and supplies of.

Broke open many an old CRT type TV. All the tubes were Mitsubishi. The guts in all microwaves was same brand (Toshiba?).

Now I know you'll all go and break open all those TV's and Microwaves that you have down behind the shed as it cost too much to dump them legally.
