The real question is "Grade" of the parts used and how good "Quality Control" is.
It is not that there are bad parts, but that they should not make it through the system to the end user. |
Very true, a great many Lithium based cells originate in China. Most of the cells that I use in electric flying models are made in China. Materials and quality control can vary a lot depending upon what the rebrander is willing to pay for, so something that has a recognizable name worth protecting usually turns out to be the best quality too. That is IMHO of course.
So far, my stock Chinese battery in my PockePRO has given me no problems at all so my BL-5C plan is just a contingency plan in case it does have problems, or when it finally wears out.
