Yes. Even at 60% of the capacity, the only change is that you may have to recharge more often.

When you replace the original battery, carefully remove the old connector. The reason I recommend doing it this way is to avoid creating static discharge into the device when you solder. Snip the black and red wires with as much lead length as possible remaining on the connector. Then solder it to your new battery wires, and reconnect it to the reader (remember the orientation of the wires, although the connector is keyed so you can't insert it upside down).
