I bought 4 of these:

Haven't had any issues, until tonight. Plugged one into my flash with fresh batteries and smelled electronics melting. No lights on the pack (which are normally flashing when plugged into a powered flash) so I didn't use it. Seems it has fried itself.
I sent an email to DealExtreme to see what the replacement policy was before getting more (adding more flashes to my equipment soon!) but wondering if anyone has had any issues????
