    Can you get the same type of battery from the manufacturer or is it already phased out?

    Good question, but I am not sure as of this writing.

    I received my new OEM battery from eBay about a week ago, and run times have increased about 2 1/2 times compared to the old battery. It currently has a 95% wear rating - meaning that the other 5% will not hold a charge. I'm happy so far.
