Oh right on and therefore mine’s made in Japan too. I get that warm cosy feeling when I have items that are “Made In Japan”. Mind you there are China companies that made good items and have great quality control also. Just that I’m not too keen in using Chinese brand batteries.

Yes of course, but 18650 store has them at same price, there is no reason to buy Chinese version……And I think most 30Qs are made in China nowadays.

I think CATL is the best battery manufacturer in China but never see they have consumer cells on sale. I don’t trust Lishen and DLG (Sofirn rewrap) due to their bad reputation years ago. Also Mooch recently tested some Chinese cells and results were not good at all.

Well the 21700s appear to be identified here: Test/review of Sofirn 21700 5000mAh (Black)
