This is a very cheap battery ($10 for four, including shipping) with impossible specifications.

Official specifications:

The capacity is nowhere near the specified 5000mAh, not even all batteries together is enough.

This is interesting, they has very different current delivery capacity, i.e. it will be a very bad idea to use them in series with high power lights.

With the low capacity they are very fast to charge.



Conclusion

The batteries is as expected: Not very useful and with the low capacity they are not even good value for the money.
With unknown and obvious low quality cells in a unprotected battery I will rate these batteries bad.
