Replacement Battery
Replacement battery
Recently had to replace my out of warranty Sony PRS 505 battery, I bought this in the UK http://www.morpethmobiles.co.uk/prod...CS%2DPRD500SLb. Works fine, just passing this on for interest in case anybody needs a battery or perhaps a spare. |

Thanks for that. Although mine doesn't need replacing in a long time as I just bought it, but it's good to know there are alternatives to eBay sellers from Hong Kong.

I have purchased other eBay Hong Kong replacement batteries in the past (for my iPod and other devices) and have had pretty good luck but lately... I got a complete dud for my Sansa E280 which they replaced. The original battery gave me about 15-20 hours per charge and this replacement is about half of that. I also replace my PRS-505 factory battery at the same time and I get about a week and a half of standby time with this POS (piece of Shtuff). I keep thinking about putting the original back in but it was such a pain in the butt to replace the thing that I am just living with it as is for now.

I have the e-bay replacement but I'm still nervous about opening up my 505. I'm going to finish my current e-book first...

I posted this in December about a battery from batteryship.com and igork's disassembly photos for the 505.
