Bonjour,

un tutoriel trés simple .j'ai remplacé la batterie par une batterie d'origine samsung S4 pour 8€90.

la récupération de la petite carte électronique sur l'ancienne batterie est très facile à déssouder.

merci

Denis

hi ! I just got an S4 Battery, but it seems bigger, and it says 2600 mAh ... is it still ok ? :/ thanks

legandfox - Antwoord

I think it is ok. All batteries for galaxy S4 do not show the mAh (I do not remember what was written one the one I have put in the cybook). But you can measure the battery, the dimensions I mentioned in the instructions are about 5 x 46 x 60mm. For the capacity, 2600 mAh it is better than the initial 1600 mAh (but voltage must be the same, or very near 3,7V).

This tutorial should be avoided as possible, the Cybook Hardware is NOT MADE to charge such a battery, you risk fire/explosion problem by doing that..

Never mess with battery that are not made for a device

Godzil, you are right. Although I had no problem with the battery of galaxy S4 installed in my cybook for more than one year, I indeed recommand you to take a battery which has the same characteristics as the original battery.

The characteristic of the original battery is Lipo 1650mAh, 3.7V and dimensions are about 5x46x60mm.

(see http://www.bookeen.com/fr/supportfaq/sho...)

You can see such batteries for example here :

- http://www.cpkb.org/wiki/Samsung_EB-F1A2...

This one is 5.1 mm x 46.1 mm x 59.1 mm, so lightly more thick (0.1mm), it should fit well in the cybook.

- http://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/ul...

- http://www.amazon.com/35H00185-01M-1650m...

These two are 5x50x60mm but I think they should also fit well in the cybook.

I modified the tutorial to take into account your remarks. Thank you.

Hi,

What is the type of battery to this Cybook?

How can I find it?

Thanks for tutorial!

ogimar - Antwoord

Hi,

The type of the original battery is LiPo. In my reply of the 2019/03/17, I post a few links for batteries, the amazon link does not work anymore, but the alibaba link is ok.

You could also use this battery at aliexpress (same capacity, but smaller in size, and same thickness, so it should fit):

https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/328391011...

But you could also use a battery replacement for the samsung galaxy S4 as I noticed in the tutorial (could be found in amazon or elsewhere).

Cheers,
