Both fake and genuine HG2\u2019s have four spot weld points on top and free-floating (not glued on) top ring insulators. The fakes have a slightly wider ring around the battery near the top but that will be very hard to see without having a genuine HG2 for comparison.<\/p>\n<p>Photos of the fakes and test results: <a href=\"https:\/\/imgur.com\/a\/ZKY80ng\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/imgur.com\/a\/ZKY80ng<\/a><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no other way to detect the fakes than internal resistance (IR) or discharge testing. The HG2 has an AC IR spec of &lt;=20mOhms. My genuine ones measure around 15mOhms. The fakes measure about 35mOhms, indicating that they will have huge voltage sag and a low current rating.<\/p>\n<p>The fakes perform MUCH worse than genuine HG2\u2019s, DO NOT USE THESE FAKES!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tasteyourjuice.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/B9557855-3565-48B4-871F-6B5F87C945BB-e1558342127445.jpeg\" class=\"size-full\"><\/p>\n<div style=\"padding-bottom:20px; padding-top:10px;\" class=\"hupso-share-buttons\"><!-- Hupso Share Buttons - https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/ --><a class=\"hupso_toolbar\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/buttons\/dot.png\" style=\"border:0px; padding-top: 5px; float:left;\" alt=\"Share Button\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var hupso_services_t=new Array(\"Twitter\",\"Facebook\",\"Google Plus\",\"Pinterest\",\"Reddit\");var hupso_background_t=\"#EAF4FF\";var hupso_border_t=\"#66CCFF\";var hupso_toolbar_size_t=\"medium\";var hupso_image_folder_url = \"\";var hupso_url_t=\"\";var hupso_title_t=\"A%20BATTERY%20MOOCH%20POST%3A%20Fake%20LG%20HG2%20alert\";<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/js\/share_toolbar.js\"><\/script><!-- Hupso Share Buttons --><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Post #5 of 9 about battery fakes.
