Thank you @Zebulon Walton
This is a precious information !
You're welcome! The only issue I ran into is that battery had a plastic molding glued to the bottom edge (opposite edge from the contacts) that had to be removed for it to fit in the phone.
My problem is solved with your help Thank you !
First, I've bought a charger and plug the PinePhone's battery on it for some hours : the battery is alive and the PinePhone was able to boot
The charger is a 'nx' model 'CEL9012' bought in the same store.
I've bought the battery in my local store : https://www.1001piles.com/searchengine/result/?q=EB-BJ700BBC
The price is higher than Ebay, but it's a easier and simple for me, and no bad surprise
But, it wasn't the bottom part of the battery to remove, it was the upper part as shown on the pictures.
