You could however,put some foam around the battery to prevent it making sound when shaking the reader. Also test your battery to see if it charges well.
I would not know if a larger capacity battery would be charged fully on the reader.
if you put foam around the battery, you might as well just use the normal sized battery and the battery try. You'd use up any space for a larger capacity battery.

Obviously you'd have to use a battery with the same voltage (1 cell LiPo,) but there's no reason one with more mah wouldn't work and last longer. This is, of course, a hack. Please don't do it if you're not used to hacking your personal electronics, I've never had a laptop, a gps, or a cell phone I haven't altered in some way.
