The chinese ones on ebay seem ok but delivery wait and import times are long, and they dont actually have the connector either.

But connector is wrong.
It would be >NICE< if Pine could provide some part numbers for people OUTSIDE the USA to buy compatible batteries...
And I can't find any diagrams of which pins do what on the LiPO connector... I'm assuming that the middle pin does nothing - or is GND ?
In general, any 3.7v Lipo battery will work. The first pin is positive, the third pin is ground, the info posted at Pine64 wiki page on the main board connector information. The middle pin is temp sensor for those battery that has temp sensor.
Due to Lithium battery can blow up and cause fire, I cannot simply recommend.
Thanks
Noted, I will release our Lithium battery data sheet on this week as a reference.
