Thanks for the heads up. I’ll let you know how the install goes when the battery arrives next week.
One of my batteries from China is supposed to be delivered tomorrow (actually today now) and the other one was in Stockton, CA the day before yesterday. So much quicker shipping than I expected (I was told over 60 days for both). I think the one I'm getting tomorrow is for the original Touch N905. Hopefully the Mini battery (with, supposedly, the right connector) will make it by Friday or Saturday. So two of my ailing Kobos might be back up and running this weekend.

EDIT: The N905 (3 wire) battery arrived today and it's installed. It had the right connector and was pretty much an exact fit. (Had to squeeze the wire side in a little to fit the frame.) I'm charging the battery now, but it looks like it already had a nearly full charge. Now I'll have to test the Touch and see how well the battery holds a charge (and to discharge it completely and recharge it completely, per instructions).

Received the battery in 11 days, which is faster than delivery I sometimes get in the U.S.

Two pictures below. New battery installed and a comparison between it and the old battery.
