Ukrainian researchers turn e-cigarettes into mobile power sources for military use in innovative project in Kiev.

According to Germany's N-TV, battery researchers in Ukraine are finding a way to survive in poverty by working hard on research and development. In a project in the capital city of Kyiv, they are recycling discarded e-cigarettes and turning them into portable power sources for the military.

 

Although old e-cigarettes pose a significant recycling problem, they are being fully utilized in Kyiv. A innovative project is actively underway, aimed at providing convenience for soldiers who can use these mobile power sources, modified from e-cigarettes, to charge their devices on the front lines.

 

Through the use of upcycling, the wisdom and innovative spirit of the Ukrainian people are fully demonstrated, showing strong resilience in difficult environments for survival and development. This mobile power source, derived from an e-cigarette, will provide great convenience for the military.
