It could be the sucralose overdose. Some fruit flavors already have fair amount of EM as sweetener and mixing them with sucralose could break your cotton.

Hi vapers,

After a few bad purchases, I will draw my conclusion of how to detect fake LG HG2 18650 battery.

Fake
1. Shinny white washer at positive pin. If you want to unwrap, the white washer is glued into the top pin, whereas the original no glue just sit on top.
2. Black bold and clear fonts on the label
3. Very old manufacturing date (>10 months)
https://batterybro.com/pages/18650-date-code-lookup-tool
4. Weight less than 44gm (normally 41 -42 gm only)
5. Cannot draw 20A continuous fire. Able to verify with fully charged battery and put into your single mod able to fire above 70w and your coil built must be around 0.2ohm. USE ONLY REGULATED SINGLE BATTERY MOD LIKE EVIC VTC MINI etc

Original
1. Matte white washer at positive pin
2. Light bold and fine fonts on the label
3. Recent manufacturing date (eg. 2-5 months)
https://batterybro.com/pages/18650-date-code-lookup-tool
4. Weight more than 44gm (maximum 47gm)
5. Able to draw 20A continuous fire. Verify with fully charged battery and put into your single mod able to fire above 70w and your coil built must be around 0.2ohm. USE ONLY REGULATED SINGLE BATTERY MOD LIKE EVIC VTC MINI etc

Since, authentic LG HG2 is rated 20A continuous, original should able to fire (POINT 5) without any problem.

Most of the sellers are selling fake battery rated around 10A only (reasons for "weak battery" indicator when battery level still have a lot (e.g. 40-60%) with 1500-2000mah capacity. Also, can check mah charged with Xtar VC4 .

Hope able to help some vapers on how to check battery authenticity.

Thanks for the info....i also got 1pc HG2 fake battery. Shows battery weak on 8A @ 50% battery....i throw away already sad.gif
But if buy battery online how to check? Lot of online seller says their battery is 100% original.......worry when get it....100% fake tongue.gif . Thats why i worry buy battery online. Anyone here know who sell 100% ori battery online? Most of the vape shop also sell fake battery also. I also experience b4......same case....show battery weak when fire above 8A. Very hard to buy an original battery nowaday.

Most sellers claimed their battery is authentic but turned out to be bad fake. Unfortunately, not many users know how to test it.

XTAR stuff FTW. For a 4-slotter the VC4 is nice, though it doesn't use microUSB cables like the VC2/MC2/MC1/MC0 (so no ready spares).
Thanks for the guide. Personally I already felt something was off when the HG2s/browns practically flooded the market since last month (both expos got LG browns by the boatloads)... and then Abam Mooch from ECF posted his finding, which I reposted over here some time ago.

For me looking at the top insulator (glossy = fake, matte = ori) is enough 90% of the time, though apparently it's only a matter of time before counterfeiters get that right too.

I personally prefer Sammy 25R5s (or 30Qs, but I've yet to see anybody stocking those) to LG batts though, so it's less of an issue for me.

I normally buy HG2 from alexng for peace of mind. Xtar VC4 is good charger and i bought it from lelong around RM 90 including shipping, but the end connector ain't any standard micro USB like phone or MC2. I have both the 25R and 30Q and i have no complain on the battery since i normally fire below 70w using regulated mods. Doesn't matter due to my style of vaping.

I still use the sport cars battery (SOny VTC4, rated 30A continuous) for super low ohm [ 0.10Ω - 0.20Ω ] ... but not very often.

Have a link to the Xtar VC4 you bought?

What about Nitecore i4/d4? It's almost half the price of the Xtar VC4
*
I bought from here.
http://www.lelong.com.my/catalog/all/list?...eyword=XTAR+VC4
Pick which is cheaper, so far there is no clone for VC4.

Nitecore i4 = without LCD screen
Nitecore D4 = XTAR VC4 (VC4 is better, but depends on you)

If you want to get Niteocre D4, searh in lelong or shopee. XTAR is cheaper in lelong.

Found this dude selling Xtar on LYN
https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2970982&hl=

I see the Xtar VC4 or MC2 doesn't come with a wall adapter.

Do you plug yours into your laptop USB?
*
Well, i plug into my Note5 fast charger

If 2A adapter - fastest (each slot 1A, 2 batteries = 1A each, 4 batteries = 0.5A each) pretty fast
If 1A adapter - you do the maths

Post comment in their facebook site. If they care about the reputation, refund would be much hassle free.

Fake from Vapor Hub
My pictures from the tank they gave me:
user posted image
Here you can see the rubber part(i think its call an insulator) sticking out under the build post and also at the back you can see the top cover with the engraving Avocado which on the V its half faded and grayish . The authentic one is not supposed to be even colored.
Here is the picture of the SS version engraving from RIP TRIPPERS review.
user posted image
The engraving follows the color of the base which is either silver or black as shown below in the authentic black version i bought.

Here is the picture another forum member markypcs who was cheated as well just sent me a picture of his clone black version from Vapor Hub.
user posted image
As you can see his engraving is grayish. Also in the picture above you can see the tank is with a clear glass. All the authentic ones come fitted with frosted glass and the clear glass tank is where the extra accessories are at.

The easiest give away is if you look at the first picture, you see the screw holding the fill hole hinge on the clone is gold and the original ones(SS or Black) comes with silver screws only as shown below:

Here is a picture showing the color of my authentic avocado black fill hinge screw.

Also in the picture above you can agak agak see the insulator and how good the workmanship is on the authentic one.

In the picture below you can see a stone chip in between two of the o rings due to poor workmanship of this clone.
user posted image
Also can you spot a screw missing on the top post? The screw basically just fell off when i opened the tank brand new from the box and was sitting on the build deck.

Other giveaways of the clone:
- The biggest dead giveaway is the clone, you are able to pull the most upper part(the part that controls the air hole) out. I tried pull the top part out of my authentic one and from looking underneath, i can confidently say that the top and middle parts are joined together and there is no way to pull it out. In case you don't get what i mean, the picture below is an illustration of the part i was able to pull apart.
user posted image
- Both tanks were clear instead of one being frosted.
- The ceramic block inside(if you decide to use single coil) is supposed to have 2 o-rings on both its legs but the clone came with only 1 o-ring on one leg for the block. The spare one also had only one o-ring.
- Very hard to pull out the liquid hole hinge cover.
- In between the liquid hole hinge and the fill hole, there is suppose to be a plastic cover which the clone does not have.
- The packaging part where on the front it writes Geek Vape, easy to build etc. That paper on the authentic one is really thin like an a4 paper. The fake one from Vapor Hub was hard like a higher gsm paper.
I hope this helps you distinguish between the clone and original one.

Bro, did you check the authenticity scratch sticker?

Sometimes I stop vaping because juice taste Tak sedap.
How long can the juice last once we open the bottle?
Me using Provari with kayfun v4. What is the best setting ? I'm running 1.5ohm with 4.4 volt.
Izzit too much or too low ?
*
Reasons juice don't taste good like the normal days, or muted :

1. Wick - broken or burned --> need to change cotton
2. Coil - gunk --> dry burn or recoil new
3. Vaper tongue
- change to different e-juices
- drink lemon/coffee
- drink more water
- if some burn on your mouth/tongue... need 3-4 days to heal (especially when you vape at high temperature)

Most of the vapers only tell you 50% stories, i tell you 99%. Hehe
