Battery Upgrade on KT, KG, KM Possible?

Searching the forum I could not find any information about the internal battery packs used in the Kobo e-ink line of ereaders.
Looking at mod and tear down pictures it seems to me that a polymer battery pack is used. Probably Li-ion. Can someone post more information about it?
I would like to knowthe specs of the standard battery packs used in the readers, like power, capacity, dimensions (length,width,height).

Can the battery be replaced with a higher capacity pack?

Update (based on comments in this thread).
