You think? It is a same type of battery at a normal charge rate. OK, the cause is a simple swallow of the pack hitting a sharp edge on the inside of the phone.
On that Protek battery that can handle 10C charge:
Continuous Discharge 100C (490A)
4 or even 5mm connectors are not able to withstand such a high current. Even the soldering inside the pack as the small aluminium solder tabs will burn through at 490 amp.
So you do trust the 10C charging rate with a mentioned 100C countinious(!!!!) discharge rate.
