10 Year Sheef-Life 18650

Going through some old batteries I bought, before I learned better, I found these bad fakes.

Embarrassing now to know that I actually bought some of these.
They are headed for the trash today.

And they are the ‘low reoccuring operation cost’ variety, maybe you should keep them! They don’t make them like this anymore. :smiley:

even though they have a 10 year sheef life, their shelf life is only weeks. :bigsmile:

i had two like those in that photo with the same crapfire wrapper, i tossed therm both in the batter recycle bin at home depot back in July as one of them began to leak a white oozy pus. (besides that they both tested below 450mah they were trash from the start when they cme with a $10 light.
