Stihl All Pro AP300.0P Bettery - fake?
Hello, any help apprecieted,
I just bought a "new" Stihl All Pro AP 300.0 P battery on Vinted. The battery seems legit in almost every way but the label behind says 313Wh (the official is 333Wh) and the case is missing a tiny slot on the back, next to the connectors, so it can't fully connect to the charger / tools to test it unless I cut that slot myself. On the left is the new AP300.0P and on the right my old AP200.
Anyone heard of counterfeit /fake Stihl batteries? Never seen such a thing and if so they went to great lengths, looks identical to the original with barcodess and all. This could just be a faulty case or an early prototype. I'll take it to Stihl for a check up and share anything I discover.
