It says policemen sometimes buy orange 16340s off DX and mix depleted cells with new ones and they can go poof. But anything made in America is great….

It doesn’t say that at all. It says that an officer mixed an unauthorized brand known only as “orange” with partially depleted cells and caused an explosion.

I thought that’s what I said…

No, you said they were buying rechargeable 16340s off of DealExtreme.com. The article says nothing of the sort. Simply that the batteries were “unauthorized” and were known only as “orange”.

Bah that’s too bland. I was making assumptions to “spice up” the story.
