Has anyone reported issues with this battery, from what I've seen online everyone has been happy with its performance. Maybe the uneveness called out by the article is not enough to matter. Not following the industry standard is not necessarily the tipping point of everything going wrong.

"Well the batteries haven't caught on fire yet. I'm sure they're fine, despite the serious manufacturing defects that increase the risk of a fire substantially."

You realize they stopped selling them, right? They don't do this for "nothing to worry about."

>increase the risk of a fire substantially

The article doesn't state by how much it increased.

>You realize they stopped selling them, right?

I don't think Amazon is an authority on battery safety and are airing on the side of safety than making an actual judgements on the safety of it.

		That lower than .5 mm margin on those edges may not have caused fires - yet - but if nothing is done about it then one day they will. That's an accident waiting to happen.

		No they are definitely not. You’re completely correct! They are, instead, an authority on what might get their asses sued to the moon and back and apparently found the cost/ benefit of selling this popular product to be negative. Any ideas what might cause that?
