Yes I know there are lots of fakes around. All I can tell you about his one is that it was supplied in a Window Vac sourced from Lidl a couple of years ago. It's not branded but the label is stamped as above. It's the same shape but a good deal thicker and longer than an AA battery and has wired connections to both ends terminating in a small connector so it wouldn't fit in any charger I have anyway. I was wondering if I might be able to work out a way to charge it and use it in some other application.
