I required a new set of LIons (ouch) and while they were in the process of doing the swap, I photographed the serial numbers.
Above the bar code is printed "Made in China".

So much for an "American" product.

I think the earlier batteries were made in France.

Perhaps you have an incomplete understanding of what "Made in USA" actually means?

Further, does Segway claim "Made in USA" status?

Assembled in the USA, for sure.
