QUOTE(fulat @ May 13 2006, 12:23 AM) i can't confirm white the white things is original... unless u dare to use water to test it. and again those white black paper one... the most i can think of it water did make the white paper turned pink/red. so they remove it and put a black paper there. so far i think authorised warranty claims mainly depand on that paper. Bro, I think the printing of the label varies from batch to batch.

QUOTE(Mike3300 @ May 13 2006, 12:23 AM) haha....so even with the black cap cover is removed is just to make an ease for the technicians? yeap.... common battery faulty will be like battery expanded in size... that's dude to the li-poly chemical materials changed. and it release some gas inside. that is a common problem for normal battery failure. water enter no need to open the battery also can see from outside. ease thier work

QUOTE(calvin_gsc @ May 13 2006, 12:18 AM) Photo from SE site. Enlarged.  fu|at's Midland battery  My original BST-37 battery is like the SE site. Made in China and Finished in China. It has a metallic like casing around the battery. Solid feel to it. Type CBA-0002001 stated after the Li-Polymer 3.6 V info. My AP set however is like calvin_gsc. Has a paper like material wrapping around the battery instead. Made in Korea and finished in china. Looks crappy to me. I'm not surprised this is fake.

I still think that the wrapping around an ori battery is like aluminum foil.

2) AP set (05W26) Front  Side  Top, touched the battery top with wet hands  (not dropped in toilet, still working)  Back, looks like paper wrapping it. Push it around, the paper sinks in This post has been edited by dreamthief: May 13 2006, 09:29 AM

The new comaprisons that I can see is that the water test sticker is squarer for the ori one, and non-ori is more rectangle.
Next, the bottom. The ori one has three small boxes with a dot on each end of it. Non-ori one only has the boxes.
