Re: 4x Rechargable CR123 @ 3.7v @ 1000mah + Charge
It is no name junk and could very well explode. When it comes to batteries and chargers, only use brand names, or products that have been proven to be safe. I suggest you research CPF for batteries and chargers that are safe.

Hi Senkat,
The originals were here

I thought it was best I remove the link as the description was a perfect match to the dodgy ones on the forum.

The UltraFires are ok as far as being safe but are not the most consistent...meaning some perform better than others. But they are much, much better than that other auction you were looking at..
SenKat...you have been lucky...lol...j/k. But to each his own. I will not take chances, and will help to deter others from taking chances as well especially those looking to use li-ion. Most of the stories regarding explosions are on account of using crap, some are because of mishandling or improper charging, and the rest are rare.
Does the battery in this thread look familiar.. ;D

Now I did read the problem with BS brands has been resolved...so they might be ok. But the point I am making is a very valid one..
