Never heard of them, but DCS is about to get a lesson in the Streisand effect.

Is it a case of any publicity is good publicity? Never heard of them before now, and I am guessing there are a lot of others the same.

Once the drama wears off, people will still remember the name.

Search "century battery quality" and this forum pops up on the first page

That echoes advice offered to the defendant by John Cadogan. I suspect the plaintiffs will not come out of this next round looking good. Although if the claim is ruled ineligible to proceed, I think it requires a separate action by the defendant to recover costs.
