Thats not right. If you do any mods to anything you buy, you will void the warranty, and if the thing explodes or something and causes personal harm, you will be blamed because you mde the modification.
Just like if you buy a car and then change it completely so its illegal, and then go drive it and get caught by pigs, the car company will not sue you, you will just get a fine and your car impounded or something.
I would think it would be fake.
