The HE4 is LG's later revision, generally offering improved manufacturing consistency over the original HE2.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"105:1-106:251;5631-5945\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How long does it take to fully charge an HE4 in the UI2?\u003c\/strong\u003e A: Since the UI2 charges at up to 1000mA per bay while the HE4 supports fast charging up to 4000mA, expect a longer charge time than a high-current dedicated charger — typically several hours for a full charge, depending on the starting charge level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" data-sourcepos=\"108:1-109:108;5947-6080\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What's in the box?\u003c\/strong\u003e A: 2 LG INR18650-HE4 Flat Top batteries, 1 NITECORE UI2 charger, a USB-C charging cable, and a user manual.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51454223778038,"sku":"OAS1751","price":24.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0819\/2753\/6886\/files\/nitecore-ui2-lg-he4-flat-top-2pack-kit-main_0562af23-f4fd-46eb-8a61-6cf9f53f5ba4.webp?v=1786968637","url":"https:\/\/oneandes.com\/products\/nitecore-ui2-2-slot-usb-c-charger-2x-lg-inr18650-he4-flat-top-battery-kit-2500mah-20a","provider":"OneAndes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
