Fair enough. I’m still trying to find any info about LG telling vape suppliers to pull their batteries. So far I think it’s BS unless anyone can come up with a source. The guy in the video should have at least referenced an article or something.

In the vid you will see early on a post from Battery Mooch about this, I think that sounds pretty reliable, considering its from Mooch. Also the fact that on both Imr.com and Illumn.com the lg batteries are simply gone and no explaination. I was just looking at those batteries on IMR a few days back and there was plenty of stock then.
My bad FFrank, I just checked illumn, they are there again on site, they weren’t when I checked the site early this morning when I posted. But they are definately missing from Imr.com.
They pulling a fire alarm drill for bad batteries? Imr and Illumn walked out to the courtyard wonder who else was a good student?

Nice find/share!! 
BTW, for those that are familiar with the last go around of fake 25r’s (a bit over a year ago IIRC), this is all new information, on a recent set of findings by Mooch! (8/14/2017)

I just bought 6 Samsung Batteries on Ebay, after I read this I sent the seller an email and told him he needed to prove to me they were real Samsung batteries and marked properly.

Please look into the battery Mooch’s posts on battery ratings I don’t trust efest their ratings are exaggerated big time
So true you are, I was actually pissed when I found out, felt like their playing with a person’s safety
Are you in the States? If so, I highly recommend both www,illumn.com and www.imrbatteries.com for getting authentic batteries. There are a good number of sellers on eBay and Amazon that are selling counterfeit cells-some think they have authentics, some don’t care.

I know most don’t care because I’ve become pen pals online with people who buy boxes full of clones and sell them.

I’m sure. Those are some fun conversations, I gather?
The one guy was selling bad clone coils. I should have just turned him over to ebay and have them not let him sell anymore but I learned an awful lot from befriending him and getting my money back. Batteries are different, they could actually hurt someone.
