Hello all!
I opened an old broken laptops' battery and found 18650 batteries in the battery pack. I could use these 18650s for my flashlight and radio.
The flashlight & radio also take 18650s.
Do you guys see any safety issue at all in recharging these batteries and using them for non laptop uses? Is there a possibility of the battery exploding because the load the battery will be under is different than a laptop? Are all 18650 batteries the same when charging them?
A pic of the battery pack is below.

A pic of the charger is below.
