How to tell if you've got a genuine Joyetech eGo batteryDue
to the number of similar appearing devices on the market, determining
what is and isn’t a genuine Joyetech eGo can be confusing. To make
matters even more confusing, some vendors sell non-Joyetech eGo devices
with misleading names like “Ego” or “EGO”, or, even worse, falsely claim
their products are Joyetech when they’re not.
Joyetech can be queried directly about the authenticity of a device by emailing info@joyetech.com.
But what can you do yourself to determine if your eGo is genuine?
With a Multimeter:If
your freshly charged eGo or eGo-T, without load, meters at 3.2v – 3.4v,
then it is most likely a genuine eGo. If, however, it meters at 3.7v or
higher, it is not a genuine eGo or eGo-T and should not be used with a
genuine Joyetech Atomizer.
Without a Multimeter:The Name: If it’s not called an Joye eGo, Joye eGo-T, Joye eGo-C, then it is most
likely not a Joytech eGo. Example: Joyetech has never made a product
called an eGo-W
The Button: This
is the best method we’ve found to determine the difference between
genuine Joyetech eGos and non-Joyetech devices. Is the button on the
side of the battery
A genuine Joyetech eGo will have a button that is clear, hard plastic with a slight indentation in the top of it.
If your eGo has this button, it most likely a genuine Joyetech and can be used with Joyetech atomizers.
How to determin it is not a genuine Joye eGoIf
the button is opaque and has no indentation and feels more like soft
rubber. Though button size and shape vary slightly on non-Joyetech fat
batt devices (some are oval) they are typically opaque, soft rubber. Any
fat batt with an opaque, soft rubber button is NOT a genuine Joyetech
eGo, eGo-T or eGo-C and should not be used with genuine Joyetech
Atomizers.
