The simple fact is these batteries can and do explode. I'll take every bit of protection I can get to help reduce the chances of that happening.

The average person doesn't have a clue how to test voltage and many of them probably wouldn't know what volt is correct. Usually they sell li-ion batteries without protection to use in packs or devices with a protection circuit.

That was the answer I had been looking for but didn't realize it until I read it. That is a logical reason for unprotected Li-ion batteries. Thank you!

There are many monitors used in RC to warn when lipo packs get low.

HobbyKing R/C Hobby Store : Battery Monitor 2-6S
HobbyKing R/C Hobby Store : HXT Lipo Monitor 3S. A must have for all lipo users!

I just bought 2 of something very similar to the links you posted. I haven't gotten them yet though.
