Such as Poland and France in the last century, or Spain in the previous century (Pensinsular war)? But that is enough for this thread

Ah, but what if it tuns out that the Russian soldiers were killed by a previously unknown strain of pure bred Apis mellifera mellifera? I have heard that they can turn nasty...

Don't be tempted to do it yourself or to use a less than very well qualified supplier. This chap, Prof Paul Christensen, https://lithiumionsafety.co.uk/ has some horror stories to tell of cases where someone has rigged up an ex electric vehicle battery for use at home to back up their solar panels
