The DIYMore 18650 Battery Shield V3 su... isn't very good.

Earlier this week I was working on a project where I wanted to power some electronics with an 18650 cell. Because I needed 5V and 3.3V and an 18650 doesn't provide either I dove into my grab stock and came out with one of the "DIYMORE" battery shields I had in stock, ordered on the cheap from AliExpress when I stumbled upon them one day. So I put an 18650 in, soldered the electronics to the 3.3V and 5V rails, checked if everything worked and went on my merry way.
