Crash Testing bebob Batteries
About a year ago we met the Polish cameraman and producer Łukasz Glewicz on Instagram. He is a big bebob fan - and we are a big fan of his creative work!

Reliable power for extreme settings: bebob Vmicros support National Geographic's Thai Cave Rescue docu
In the summer of 2018, the whole world held its breath when a young football team and their coach were trapped in a Thai cave, Tham Luang Nang Non, by a sudden flood. Their chances of survival seemed very slim due to the complicated local conditions - but after nine days, divers actually managed to rescue the boys and their coach.
