A BATTERY MOOCH POST: Peel off those battery stickers!

If you bought Samsung, Sony, LG, or Panasonic/Sanyo batteries then they probably came with stickers covering up the printing the manufacturer put on the battery wrap.

These stickers are added by the reseller/distributor, not the battery manufacturer, and is done to comply with shipping regulations. But these stickers keep us from verifying what batteries we actually have and interfere with checking their authenticity, a growing concern.

More than once a battery has had the wrong sticker put on it. There are at least four pink 18650’s, two browns, four reds, four blues, etc.

Taking off the sticker means you can verify that you got the battery you paid for. It’s also the first thing we’ll ask you to do if you have any questions about, or problems with, your battery.

So don’t hesitate to remove those stickers!
