    Replaced the battery myself a week or so ago since it's a pretty old tablet and I got it a few years ago cheap for an ereader only always airplane mode just take off and put on ebooks. Noticed that the batt would just fall off a cliff so I got a cheap generic for it and it lasts days now. For just reading e-books it's all I need and it's on ancient android like 4 but that version of moon reader has worked fine for years. They want to sell you a battery for 10$ then some tools for another $5 but I had no problem just using some of those plastic dental floss picks to pry open the back and install it. It's in an otterbox so left off the back while I confirme the batt worked then snapped the back on. Anyways just fyi
