<My opinion>
How many aftermarket batteries do you think are sold around the world... And every single time I read a thread about these batteries someone brings up the story about the guy in china and the exploding battery...

I think you have a higher chance of dying because...
1) Talking on the phone while walking and falling into the street.
2) Talking on the phone while driving...
3) Getting hit by someone talking on the phone while driving.

I hear about more people getting hit by lightning than people dying from exploding batteries. Maybe we should all stop going outside.
