Does anyone have any informations about these?

$6.58 for a protected sanyo, that's not bad if it performs well, it could be a better choice than Tf flame in view of price / performance

If they are genuine, the price is really good.

I hope, that the protection is good, too. Not like this protected panasonic:

I would also tape something over the protection string - all good protected batteries are wrapped.

I was looking at those also, and when I googled a search of "Sanyo 2600" in images, it showed a lot of them to have a blueish + end and to have a different PCB unit at that end also, and for that reason I hold off my purchase on that site.

If anyone with experience from that site can verify they are real sanyo 2600 mah 18650's then I'd gladly purchase 4.

But I agree that they look better in performace than TF flames 2400.

What about the Sanyo Protected 2600's at BuyInCoins? Just a hair cheaper. BuyInCoins seems more reliable than Focal Price. Are they real Sanyos?

I'm just saying that all the ones I've seen on Google shows the + end with blue coloring and 6 notches in it instead of 2 or 3.

there is an additional white plastic plate on the top of the cell, because of this you can not see the blue color,

and if you look at the photo below, you can see that an additional metal part has been mounted on the cell
