Some are and some parts of some are depending on the model. However, Apart
from the fact of it being illegal to make straight copies of things, I'd be
worried about quality control myself.

Does anyone remember the fake usb power supplies and phone chargers that
self destruct or the fake tdk cassettes that were total crap?
There are even fake I Phones about now.

Its almost an institution in China, making copies of stuff, always has been.
There were some kiddies toys where the parts were held together with long
pins and fake lead free paint with lead in it etc etc, even councils have
used it since it got into the wholesale trade somehow.

And that's the problem. Once the chinese manufacturer has the
designs, he and his mate in the local communist party start
up a factory on the other side of the road making clones.

Well, the specs don't add up.
You can't get 130W from a 21.6V 2200mAh battery for 25 mins.

It doesn't actually say you can :-)

Perhaps it's 130W for about half a minute then it stutters gently to a halt 24.5 mins later.

The way you hold them looks different to the Dysons. The Dysons are
held much like a pistol.
