I have noticed this on a few occasions that CB (latest build & on previous builds) will give a date of manufacture that pre dates the unit itself..... This particular example is for a new battery installed on a MB Air A1932 which 1st appeared in 2018...... I have also noticed this on some A1278's, A1465's & 1966's that a new battery was made 10 years back which is highly unlikely. I have run CB from applications and externally to see if it made any difference. What causes this? A software bug or a battery manufacture cloning the battery chips? I recently bought 3 Air batteries from the same seller and 2 stated made in 2024 and 1 was 2015.....so cloning may not always be the case....
