    Please read post #1 (link below) before asking any questions here. Thanks!

    Eight different fake battery types to report!

    The fakes do not have the four top spot weld points that the HE4 has. The fakes also have a flatter ring around the cell near the top and a darker plastic top crimp seal (not the top flat ring insulator you can remove) than the genuine HE4.

    The performance of the fakes is terrible compared to genuine HE4, which is no surprise. I do not know what cell they rewrapped for these fakes or what its current rating is. If you have any of these fakes, don’t use them in anything!
