right....
First: China is not 3rd world, they are 2nd world.

Second: It doe not matter who built the thing, a faulty design is faulty design. I have experience with Chinese factories in the manufacturing industry, you obviously do not. There are many levels of quality from China, and its all up to the company that is having the work done as to how well they want a given product to be built. If they want the absolute cheapest, then you get cheap products. Or if you do not mind spending a bit more, you can have good quality stuff made there. And the same goes for stuff made in the USA. You can have great quality, or terrible quality.

But again, the manufacturing is NOT the issue here. Its the design of the battery.
