BATTERIES SELF-DISCHARGING!
The phone, tablet or laptop you're reading this on is likely having
its battery slowly drained because of a surprising and
widespread manufacturing flaw, according to researchers in Halifax.
Thanks to Michael R. a rocket scientist of my online acquaintance.
They used plastic tape in the battery to hold the different metals
and insulator together but apart but they made a bad choice.
