And you will likely continue to have great experiences with $5-10 
batteries until one overheats on the charger or gets shorted out.  Then 
you'll have such a not great experience with fire or explosion.  Li-ions 
are truly dangerous when not built properly. A Li-ion fire can be cooled 
by but not extinguished with water.  How much do you trust your Chinese 
supplier to install the correct monitoring and control circuitry in a $5 
battery?
