Hey guys, I'm looking for a replacement battery for my Tab s 8.4 T700. Does anyone know if this is a legit posting? BATTERY URL . On a side note, are there any things I should be worried about, such as exploding and stuff by using a off brand battery battery? Thanks!

So I did a little digging and found some part numbers for the battery in an SM-T700 US version XAR?


This site http://www.batterybay.net/Battery-for-Samsung-Galaxy-Tab-S-8-4-p/samsung-cs-smt700sl.htm shows a black battery and if you scroll the page to the part numbers listed these appear to be Samsung's part numbers :


Part number: Samsung EB-BT705FBC, Samsung EB-BT705FBE, Samsung EB-BT705FBU


This site shows the same part numbers but no photo: http://www.samsungparts.com/Products/Parts_and_Accessories/PID-GH43-04211A.aspx?model=SM-T700NTSSXAR


And yet another site: http://bigupgadgets.com/battery-eb-...t700-sm-t705-01-007625.html?fee=18&fep=183624


Also shows the battery as being black not white...


So..if it were me - I would NOT buy the cheap one from ebay being as there have been problems all over the world with batteries bursting in flames even while not being charged...




I'm sure someone here has replaced their battery and can tell you more than I can find ;)

I opened up my case and intended to replace the battery with one of the suggestions I've found here, but upon inspecting my cables directly connected to the battery I found one was not fully inside the plastic adapter that locks into the tablet's male connection. I reinserted it fully and reconnected the battery to the tablet, put it on the charger, and it's been two full days without any issues. No extreme battery level fluctuations, sudden power downs, green lines, or black screens. I ordered the second battery just in case, but it looks like it won't be necessary for some time.
