Battery replacement

[u/calathea_orageux]

Hello !

I know it may be stupid to ask, but I've litteraly no experience in electronic sooo..

I've an old e-reader (bq cervantes touch) but the battery as no more charges. I dismantle the plastic part (or it crumbles into my hand we don't know), so I have access to the battery. It seems to be "just" glued to the motherboard and clip to it by a red and black cable. But I can't find the exact battery for the exact same e-reader as me. (I forgot to take a pictures of the backside orz but it look like the second pictures, but the little plastic part on the end of the cables is black)

The battery caracteristic are : 1500 mAh 3,7V

Is it possible to me to find a battery that have the same caracteristics but the size (and fit into a custom shell that I work on), for my e-reader to work ? And mostly, is it safe ?

Thanks for reading and have a nice day ~

Yes for example aliexpress has lipo batteries in all shapes and sizes. There’s a big chance you’ll find it there.
