I can't find any info on suitable replacement batteries. There isn't a model number on the battery, just the following: FT804163P 2900mAh 11.02Wh BHZKF28L 3.8V. Where did you source your replacement battery from?

I used this one from ebay (104050, 2500mAh, the 1.25mm connector version): https://www.ebay.com/itm/115814771499 referenced by this reddit comment: https://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/com...

I had to splice and swap the red/black wires as they were in the wrong order for the spaceview, but other than that, it fit in the monitor casing and worked as expected.
