In the Hong Kong market, we have discovered counterfeit Maxell batteries being sold both online and offline.

Reminder: Counterfeit batteries pose serious safety and performance risks.

 Why You Should Avoid Counterfeit Batteries:

• Unreliable Performance – These batteries may cause malfunctions to your electronic belongings, especially in sensitive electronic devices.
• Safety Hazards – Counterfeit batteries carry a higher risk of leakage, overheating, or even explosion, which may result in injury or damage.
• Poor Packaging – Poor packaging quality such as the use of staples, offers inadequate protection and increases the risk of product degradation and potential safety hazards.

 

How to Identify Counterfeit Batteries:

• Packaging is loose (e.g., stapled) or not in the latest official Maxell design.
• Wrong company name such as “Hitachi Maxell Ltd.” or “Hitachi Maxell Global”.
• Blurred or distorted Maxell logo and product engravings.
• Irregular font spacing and untidy surface finish.
• Noticeably lighter weight compared to genuine batteries.
• No inkjet-printed lot number on the battery surface.

Declaration:

We do not guarantee the quality, performance or safety of any counterfeit products or any genuine Maxell batteries packed in unauthorized packaging. To ensure optimal performance and safety, we strongly encourage customers to purchase only through authorized Maxell distributors. If you are unsure about the authenticity of a product, please contact us directly.

We reserve the right to take legal action against counterfeiters.

New Release of Design Featuring Maxell’s “UDⅡ” Cassette Tape has been adopted to UNIQLO’s “UT” Collection

We at Maxell have recently identified counterfeit CR2032 lithium coin batteries circulating in the market. After conducting thorough testing at our headquarters in Japan, we confirmed that these counterfeit products deliver significantly lower performance and pose serious risks to both devices and users.

 

Our tests revealed that the counterfeit batteries offer only about half the capacity of our genuine CR2032 batteries. Specifically, while our authentic product delivers a capacity of 220mAh, the counterfeit versions measured only 140mAh and 124mAh, respectively.

Why You Should Avoid Counterfeit Batteries:

• Shortened Battery Life – Counterfeit batteries typically offer only about half the capacity of genuine Maxell batteries.
• Unreliable Performance – These batteries may cause malfunctions to your electronic belongings, especially in sensitive electronic devices.
• Safety Hazards – Counterfeit batteries carry a higher risk of leakage, overheating, or even explosion, which may result in injury or damage.
• Poor Packaging – Poor packaging quality such as the use of staples, offers inadequate protection and increases the risk of product degradation and potential safety hazards.

Maxell is excited to announce a significant redesign of our alkaline battery packaging, set to launch in February 2025. While the battery design itself remains unchanged, this new packaging aims to unify our brand’s visual identity across all markets, enhancing recognition and visibility.

This redesign not only aligns with our commitment to a cohesive brand image but also serves as a measure to combat counterfeit products in the market. By adopting a standardized design, we aim to ensure that consumers can easily identify genuine Maxell alkaline batteries.

The higher-end Premium Digital XL offers the best performance, followed by the standard Alkaline (GD) Battery. Both the Digital XL and Alkaline (GD) Battery series contain 0% mercury and 0% cadmium. The production process is environmentally friendly.

 

FEATURES

• High Performance: Our alkaline batteries deliver exceptional power and durability, making them suitable for a variety of applications.
• Excellent Cost Performance: Designed to be economical, Maxell alkaline batteries provide superior value without compromising on quality.
• Dependable Power: Customers can rely on consistent performance across all product applications, from clocks and toys to digital cameras.
• Convenient Packaging: The new card packs will offer enhanced convenience for consumers.

The alkaline series has two production lines: the Premium Alkaline Digital XL and the Alkaline Battery GD (Global Design). The Premium Alkaline Digital XL is made in Japan and features a leak-proof design (10-year shelf life), offering long-lasting high power and high quality. The Alkaline Battery (GD) is manufactured in China and is a cost-effective choice.
