When ordering batteries for electronic devices we use sea shipping. Shipping via UPS or DHL is not possible since the total cost of one battery is several times more expensive, which is not profitable for us or the customer. Time required for sea shipping from 2 weeks to 3 months depending on the location of the goods.
Before ordering, we always check the month and year of manufacture of the battery. If more than 4 months have passed since the date of manufacture, we refuse to buy the battery, because the maximum life of the battery is 2 years. The service life begins when the battery is manufactured.
Sometimes upon delivery the battery may be bloated or the case geometry may be faulty. We do not install such instances, but require replacement from the suppliers, which may increase the repair time.
