26650 Mutant Mod Question...

[humpstyles]

Simple question for you mech enthusiasts.

I won a 26650 Mutant V1 from an instagram contest a few weeks ago, but I still can't tell if it is authentic or a clone. I have been trying to contact the vendor that sent it to me, but they haven't responded. It's the V1, so the top does not cone up to 22mm, it is a 30mm cylinder the entire length of the tube.

I believe it is authentic because the engravings and details are extremely precise and carefully done. Also, the pos and neg pins are nickelbrass instead of copper.

I just can't seem to find a serial number anywhere on it - which leads me to believe that it might not be authentic. Do the real ones have serial numbers?

Can anyone with a Fall Out mods 26650 Mutant V1 let me know?

Appreciate it in advance.

I'm pretty sure that the packaging on the mutant is a dead giveaway. The original has crappy packaging (can't remember if it's a bubble wrap sleeve, or a plain box...) and the clones come in a nicer box.

Unfortunately it was sent to me in a bubble wrap sleeve, outside of whatever box it was taken out of. It was inside of a little vaping knapsack for protection.
