Did Vanon set me up?

The primary goal of this video is to find out if I got premium cells for review and everyone else got something different. My tests so far show that the 'LG' cells are indeed 3000 mah cells or close enough too it - but extensive searches can't find any LG cell that looks like that blue LG in the 4ah pack and no data sheets are available on it. If you have any details on that cell please drop a link in the description or head over to the forum to share your information.
If you purchased a Vanon Battery between my Vanon Battery review here - • Vanon 6ah Ryobi One re... & this video would love if you could post images of the batteries used within their packs. Trying to figure out if they send me a 'special' battery for review or they genuinely use a variety of different cells due to supply or batches - Happy to 'print' a retraction and remove this video If any others within our community post their results with 30q's. I may ask for proof of purchase date also to confirm you're a real client!
You can upload your photos to the forum here or follow my load test results here - secondlifestorage.com/t-Vanon.... If you'd rather not use the forum please feel free to email me the photos and your story to admin at secondlifestorage com

Looking forward to see the results and hear more on the companies cells as many are always looking for good replacement tool batteries.

[@karlbartelt3939]

Thanks for the care and dilligence.

[@LongPlaysGames]

I appreciated the followup. I saw your previous video, and went looking for some of their tools batteries online. The user reviews didn't give me confident, so I didn't actually buy any. Now I'm really interested to see how the forum/community respond.

[@batterymooch]

On those blue LG cells, the laser etched warnings were added around the start of this year on all 2500mAh, and higher, cells in response to unauthorized use of LG cells outside of a protected battery pack. Especially by vapers.

[@marke5566]

At home d they are offering two 6ah for 119, and vanon has them for 72. Based on this review im going to purchase the genuine ryobi! Thanks for exposing this horrible scam!

[@SirBruceDetects]

I sub you because it looks like you have a DYI Power wall and I am I'm thinking about doing a partials Solar Power Wall to start to to run my office - computer, lights and other items. I am just getting started. I have gotten around 50 use laptop battery packs. most are Samsung batteries. After charging some of them most 2300+ again I am just starting and have lots to learn but I've been interested in solar for a long time but one of the things that put me off is the battery cost. With lithium batteries I can build a very nice battery pack for less $$ and batteries will last longer. Any help would be appreciated. What size battery pack should I make how many cells, where to get the holders that you have on your wall. Thanks and I will start watching some of your earlier videos.

[@theeabster1983]

Thank you for taking the time to make these guys honest

[@r8tr273]

Great video, I need to purchase a couple 5.0 amp he Makita 18v batteries. Do you have any suggestions of a somewhat reliable company? I do realize none of these will be as good as a new Makita battery but those are just too expensive. I can buy 3 aftermarket batteries for the same price as one Makita. Thanks and I’ll be watching more of your videos

[@joelewis9433]

I got couple vanon batteries couple months ago first time i used it it stoped working i opened it up and the solder came undone probably from getting hot i re soldiered it and it was fine but it had blue sells in it no purple ones

[@KmanAuto]

Not sure if it goes with your stuff, but I got a WORX after-market battery for my lawn tools. It is labeled as a 84watt and was just a generic ebay battery. It actually lasted longer than my original WORX branded batteries.

[@SurfnPics]

I have left quite a detailed comment on your original video. I'm impressed you have the honesty bro upload this one. The quality of the Vanon packs different significantly internally across many aspects within the same amp rated models. Poor cell connects with little spot welding, Chinese cells, no heat sinks, no current protection, never any over temp protection, fine gauge wire connecting cells to the PCB etc. happy for you to Pm me and I can send you some of my photos. Anyone who has searched KZbin be for lithium ion battery fires are foolish in thinking they are not risking their own safety and that of others when buying pirated battery packs.

[@rich1879]

I ordered and received 6 of the 6.0 amp he batteries, I haven't used them all that much yet but I guess I better open them up. I will let you know.

[@pgprentice]

Tried to upload pics and failed, (on forum) so I give up.. My 6Ah packs contain green cells marked as LR1865BI. I think we all got ripped off.

[@edwardeagloski7763]

Good Video, Mate

[@metallicrock5946]

would you know off hand what cells ryobi chinese knockoff creabest use? i see them on ebay 2 for $78 ---5ah..

[@maxsnts]

Would it not be expected to be different cells if those batteries are rated different: 6a/h vs 4a/h ?

[@apa7611]

That lip on that LG looks like it was taking out of something else like a laptop battery. Then resold as new?

[@maxstephen7743]

I bought several batteries on their website and there was no big problem

[@raymondforet2662]

I bought Vanon battery's for my Milwaukee units, the first one I got worked great, didn't hold a charge as long as originals but acceptable. Along comes my son's birthday so I bought 2 M 12's for him and 2 M 18's for me. He said his works great( I charged them on my charger) and the 2 M 18's were not good at all. One would not latch into the charger and the other would not latch into my drill or impact. After 4 weeks trying to get them to replace both of them I just gave up. They still will not latch and I am not going to damage my real Milwaukee equiptment. So for me Vanon is history!!!!
