One aspect of the acupuncture industry that outsiders might not be aware of is its holistic approach to healing. Acupuncture practitioners take the time to understand their patient’s overall health and well-being, considering both physical as well as emotional factors. This personalized approach leads to more comprehensive and effective treatments, promoting not just the alleviation of specific symptoms, but overall balance and wellness. Additionally, many patients report a sense of relaxation and improved mental clarity after acupuncture sessions, making it a valuable practice for both body and mind. Read More>>

One thing most people don’t realize about the EV battery industry? Testing battery health is surprisingly difficult—and it shouldn’t be.

Most people assume there’s a quick and reliable way to assess an EV battery’s condition, like checking a car’s gas gauge.

At best, their estimations can be off by 10-15%, but we’ve heard anecdotes from our customers where it’s more than 50% off! This creates major challenges for automakers, mechanics, and fleet operators trying to diagnose, repair, or resell EVs efficiently. Read More>>
