Beware of cheap underperforming clones

As of 2023 there are many badly performing clones on the market. V2/3GHz NanoVNA uses parts like ADF4350 and AD8342 which are costly and clones have been cutting costs by using salvaged or reject parts.

See official store and look for V2 Plus4/V2 Plus4 Pro versions only to avoid getting a bad clone. We have stopped selling V2.2 versions since October 2020, so all V2 hardware that are not Plus or Plus4 are not made by us and we can not guarantee performance.

I had to go to a vape shop to buy the correct battery. Batteries Plus did
not carry it. They had the same number but it was too long to fit. Has to
do with the protection circuit. For the NanoVNA, the protection circuit is
on the board so not needed in the battery.

Here's your best bet: https://batteryhookup.com/   I've purchased over a
grand from these guys and they are the best and NO I am NOT affiliated
with them, just a customer.
