Faulty battery woes have long plagued HP laptops, with seemingly annual
recall announcements and expansions dating back to 2016 and totaling nearly
250,000 units. It’s not exactly clear what the main issue is here. But HP has a
website set up for helping customers figure out if their computer has a faulty
battery and guiding them through the process of submitting it for a
complimentary replacement.
HP is recalling even more laptop batteries for ‘fire and burn hazards’

I said "designed by someone who knows his or her stuff, and made by a
qualified manufacturer that isn't some here-today-gone-tomorrow Chinese
sweatshop." I wasn't talking about some slave labor Chinese prison inmate
who was told to design a BMS because he happens to have a mail order diploma
from an online electronics institute, or some contract worker who may have
misrepresented his qualifications.
You want cheap? You can buy a 24 volt 60 amp BMS on Alibaba for $9. Would
you rely on it?
Expensive is no guarantee of reliability, but cheap is often the opposite.
