If you do decide to try ebay, good look and avoid the seller gtli_89 at all cost, he's a liar and a crook. Somehow this guy manages to have a seemingly endless supply of batteries to sell. I purchased one of his batteries cost me over $200. Batteries arrived dead, when i contacted the seller he says" I dunno what happend, i'm sorry, send it back and I will exchange it,and send a new one when you send me tracking. Well I sent the return tracking and he end up taking forever giving excuses then suddenly i'm apparently speaking with his wife who is "overwhelmed" because he was deployed over seas now and she is handling his ebay. Long enough story short, he apparently replies back after a few replies and says sorry, I'm not going to send a replacement battery, keeps the old dad on and doesn't want to refund my money, then "generously" offers to refund me $80, so I got ebay involved and they gave me a full refund. I think this guy probably buys old x-star batteries or drones with dead batteries cheap,and then sells them on ebay, I have noticed that he uses 2 other accounts to jack up the prices also, so avoid this crook if you use ebay.Ebay is your best bet but most are used and way over priced. Better off buying a how kit with maybe 2 or 3 spares. X-star batteries can be revived if you left to long. Follow this post.
Just unboxed an X star Premium, Batteries won't charge..
Just resuscitated 3 of my batteries by giving them a "jump" start charge with my hobby charger. They were so low, had to start with 6v, then 8v for about 15 seconds each and then that was enough for the OEM charger to see the battery and charge it up. I'll check the cell balance when I get them...autelpilots.com
Have you tried a hard reset of the battery when its out of the X-Star? Holding the power button for around 15 seconds you should see the LED lights flash off then on again back off. That should be a hard reset of the battery. Not saying this will cure the problem but its worth a shot.I haven't purchased any as of yet. I was able to jump 1 and it appears to of taken a full charge but now won't connect to my drone for some reason. How much were you asking for each battery? Any ideas why it would not connect?
I'll give that a try. Thanks for the response. Very frustrating that Autel does not have replacement batteries and have sold out. If someone 3rd party as far as a manufacturer would offer a replacement they could make a killing...
I feel your pain brother. I hate buying stuff online.i might be interested in a battery also, if the price is reasonable, already been burned by 1 ebay seller.

I'm sorry they sold- faster than I anticipated.How much are you selling them for
