What do you expect?

What do you expect?, from the lowest tender bids, and corporate greed of profits first!, and customer service last!

Just another, in the long line of rechargeable battery recalls!

Testing

I would expect that if they have a UL or ETL or CSA (Canada) sticker that they have been tested and not result in overheating.

As far as I know these were tested.

The problem lies with the people that protect consumers from this stuff and not necessarily in agressive pricing.
