Yeah, didn't read the whole article. But in fairness the title was a bit misleading on that.

But let's just assume that there is such a thing. The battery's capacity has nothing to with it catching fire or exploding. A Tesla Model X carries a massively larger battery pack under it. They're not a fire risk just because of the battery capacity.

But they are impractical for dragging around as a phone charger too. Touch to big and heavy to just throw in your backpack.

Amazon basic product sucks, they copy the items that are highly sold and sell them at a cheaper price. When you reduce the price , the quality degrades as well

Other companies should file a law suit for designing , copying and selling items which are sold on their website
