Well, it looks like finding a battery with 3.7v and 5300 mAh is not possible in this country.

There appear to be a number of batteries with 3.7, but the mAh is somewhat lower, since they appear to be geared for cell phones.

On a happier note, it looks like the battery is not depleting quite as rapidly as I had thought. I might be able to get 4-5 days out of it - maybe a day or two more if no indexing occurs - before I feel it needs a new charge.

I should be able to last until I visit the U.S. for Christmas.
