A live-streamed demonstration featuring the forced dismantling of\nBYD\u2019s second-generation Blade Battery has suddenly gone viral,\ntriggering heated debate across Chinese social media. According to\nreports, the action, initiated by a group of automotive bloggers, was\nconsidered extreme, as the team spent approximately six to eight hours\ndissecting a single battery pack unit.<\/p>\n
This risky demonstration was prompted by ongoing online discussions\nregarding the fast-charging technology of the Chinese EV giant. Previous\nlive streams testing the battery temperature during high-speed charging\nhad piqued curiosity and sparked debates among netizens regarding the\nmaterials and safety systems used in BYD\u2019s batteries.<\/p>\n
The team reportedly required nearly eight hours before they were able\nto reach the individual battery cells inside. Notably, despite the\nbattery pack being repeatedly struck and cut with grinders that produced\nsparks, viewers noted that no smoke or flames emerged from within the\nbattery. This observation became the primary focus of the audience.<\/p>\n
The live stream\u2019s comment section was flooded with analyses from\nnetizens, most of whom expressed admiration for the structural\nrobustness of the latest Blade battery generation. Discussions expanded\nto cover sealing methods, thermal materials, and the battery chassis\nreinforcement, which was deemed highly solid. Throughout the exhausting\ndismantling process, the bloggers reportedly only found minor cosmetic\nmanufacturing issues, such as unevenly applied adhesive in certain\nareas.<\/p>\n
However, the stunt was not without condemnation. Several automotive\nobservers in China criticised the lack of professionalism and the\ndisregard for safety procedures during the broadcast. Critics\nhighlighted the fatal risks of dismantling high-voltage electric vehicle\nbatteries without adequate insulation protection. Furthermore, no fire\nextinguishers were visible in the bloggers\u2019 workspace to anticipate\npotential short circuits or explosions.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/byd-second-generation-blade-battery-dismantled-in-china-1780901748", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
