From what I have read here the Pinephone charging works best with the older charger types. I use a generic 2 amp USB charger and it works fine with that. If you have reason to believe the battery is bad, replacements are available on eBay for under $10. (It's a Samsung EB-BJ700BBC/BBE/CBE battery as used in the 2015 Samsung Galaxy J7 phone.) I bought another battery on eBay to have a spare and it works fine, I just had to remove a plastic molding that was glued to the bottom in order for it to fit. These work for me:

Yeah I've heard about some samsung bateries fitting these phones its not an issue about where to buy them rather if anybody else is getting susipicious numbers, like charging this phone cia cable connected to a computer takes centuries but any progress made is also suspicious so it might be just a bad battery if I'm the only on experiencing this.
