Using high-volt Li-Ion batteries require special care, so here are some rules/warnings:
-Do not overdischarge/overcharge
-Recharge drained batteries ASAP
-Do not short circuit
-Do not dispose of in fire
-Do not expose to extreme heat or water
-Only charge when you can be there watching
-REPEAT: NEVER CHARGE LI-ION CELLS UNATTENDED

the one you listed uses a 18650 3.7v 2400mAh. no thanks. too dangerous for the average user IMHO.

Does this apply only to the rechargeable batteries or the CR123A as well?
