I'm a noob when it comes to batteries, so perhaps you could advise me about which battery to order. I see several on aliexpress, with some variation.

https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale...Boox+Nova+Pro+

Two are listed as 3.7V 3000mAh, one as 3.8V 3000mAh, and two others as 3.8V 5000mAh.

As I understand it, mAh rating means it will provide a charge for longer. I presume that means the battery will be thicker or larger. Will the larger mAh rating fit inside?

Also, some are cheaper than others. Is it wiser to get one that costs a bit more in order to get quality, rather than just go for the cheapest deal? Obviously I don't want a battery that swells or explodes.
