I saw the reports when they were expanding and wondered how they would go.
IIRC the zinc - bromine system has been around for quite a few decades, usually
with problems though. Zinc doesn't recharge well and bromine has a lot
of handling issues. I think the product was on "The Inventors" a long
time ago, using a gel electrolyte to solve some problems (?).
I wonder how the batteries failed ?

If a product isn't verified by testing, any claims by the vendor are just hype or plain old BS.
If reasonable testing has been done there will be formal records of it,
visible by potential clients, a strong selling point.
