WOW! The battery of BLUBOO Edge won't explode like Samsung Galaxy Note 7 --YouTube


The 5.5-inch smartphone 'BLUBOO Edge ' is picked up by the man conducting the test.

When I removed the back cover, a white battery appeared.

Cut the wiring with scissors ...

I took out the battery.

The first thing to do is a 'combustion test'

Place the battery in a special mesh container ...

Close the glass door.

When the switch is turned on ...

A flame rose from the burner under the container.

The flame grows like this.

The 2-minute combustion test is completed.

The battery surrounded by flames looks pathetic.

The outer package flips over.

From the inside, you can see the thin battery cells that are folded and layered.

There is no evidence of an explosion when the folded cell is unfolded.

The BLUBOO Edge battery did not explode during the 2-minute burning test.

The next test is a 'short circuit test'

Connect the clip to the terminal.

Attach the temperature sensor to the battery and you're ready to go.

A current is passed through the battery in the opposite directions to short-circuit it.

It seems that the temperature of the battery is in a dangerous state of 80 degrees or more.

In a short-circuit test of 1 minute and 15 seconds, the temperature rose to 100 degrees with a current of up to 37A, but the battery did not swell and explode.

The last is 'drop test of heavy objects'

Place the battery under the metal bar.

When a heavy object is dropped on this metal rod, a strong impact is applied to the battery.

Switch on.

A huge metal weight ...

It fell on a metal rod.

You can see that the battery under the metal rod is greatly dented.

The battery had a clear mark of a metal rod.

The BLUBOO Edge battery did not explode when the weight was dropped from a height of 1.6 meters.
