Glo Kobo Glo N613 Battery Sizes?

[cetinodinson]

Hello guys, I have a kobo glo n613 and it needs a battery change. Unfortunately, there is no service that does this where I am, I have to do it myself. But despite my research, I can't get any results about the battery size, so I brought up this issue.
There are two batteries nearby that I can get;
One 3mm thickness 50x60mm 900mah
the other is 5mm thickness 50x60mm 1600mah

Honestly I want to buy the 1600 mah one but I feel like the 5mm just won't fit. I would be very happy if you could help.

Brand	    Model No.	Spec.
GN ENERGY   GN345361	3.7V 1200mAh

that is, the size 34x53x61

Open your Kobo, place a sheet of heavy cardboard, for example, 1.6-2 mm thick, on the battery and try to close it.

Thank you man, that was genius! I tried a cardboard like 1.5-2 mm of thickness. The cover closed but makes a lot of pressure. To be safe I'm not going to use 5 mm one.

1500 mAh

the connector must be re-soldered (or just twist the wires).

Read the reviews, and then Chinese sellers often sell all sorts of junk.

Its prohibited shipping bare(not in a device) lithium batteries to many countries. Yours might be one of those.
Try finding one locally, mobile phone repair shops could have the size you need. Or maybe look for another seller, maybe its a coincidence and the one you posted just doesnt ship to your country.

I've been thinking about trying to install in Kobo Glo HD (or Kobo Clara)

3,3×50×80
2800 mAh

The seller does not inspire confidence, and there are 10 pieces in the lot.

No. I think it is about duty laws in my country. But thanks for your effort.

Yes, I'm in one of those. Will look to the phone repairs, thanks.

Sorry for double posting but I found a 4.1x46x61 1350mah one. Does this fit? Can't be sure about thickness.

The original battery has a thickness of 3.4 mm. I think that 4.1 will fit, but how to check and make sure, I wrote to you above. Put a sheet of something thick 0.7 mm thick on the battery and try to close the Kobo.

My battery is not so flat actually, this is why I'm not so sure. Will choose 3mm or 4.1mm but dont know which one. But when I'm done, will write down here. Thank yo so much again.
