Sadly, not entirely unrelated to this thread.

Obviously, these would be at least as flammable as an SLA of accidentally shorted. IIRC these were impossible to distinguish from batteries with a proper BMS inside the case, so, are they still around and being sold to the unwary? -- Martin | martin at Gregorie | gregorie dot org
