These all use the same battery, so maybe you have any luck finding replacements for them i found some for the i-mobile iQ II 8150 on e-bay

- CM-11D (for Cherry Mobile G1 H220)
- AJZH53Y1529 (for General Mobile 4G / 4G Dual GM-113)
- BL-267 (for i-mobile iQ II 8150)
- SWB0115 (for Wileyfox Swift)

Looking at their webpage, they've added official replacement batteries marked with "Register your interest". If they manage to get them out in the next couple of months, I'll be pretty happy.

I looked at Wileyfox's in the end of november for the batterys, these where "out of stock", i told them that i was interested in these
I waited 4 weeks, then i bought the batterys at AliExpress:

At 21.01.2018 i got am Mail from Wileyfox, that the batterys are available..
Some days later, after four weeks, i got the batterys for AliExpress. Should be manufactured at 30.11.2017.

In the past week Wileyfox e-mailed 2 notifications that they're in stock, both times they were sold out within hours. I trust the originals better over the no-name battery, so i'll try to order the next round.

Will order this one and report back

Just to let you know, Wileyfox official site offers official batteries for sale again ! I've just ordered one to see if it's worth the buy (It's really expensive with shipping costs, 38 € for France). I'll let you know about the quality after a few tests. I'm a bit worried because photos on the website shows front with no S/N, which led me to think it's only shi*** Chinese battery, which I've already bought for 10 €. Even for this low price, it was really a bad deal because the battery self-discharges in only a few minutes from 100 to 70 %, without using the phone. After that it has a quite short range, and eventually the phone will turn off during use under 30 %...I hope the "official" battery can't get any worse !

And here is the battery, all I can say for the moment is that the delivery is quick !

Luckily, it seems to be an official one (same weight and size as my original one), but he manufacturing date is 2015/12/17, so it's the original batch - a bit old isn't it ?
I'll give it a test for a few days and will report back.

It's either remaining stock from the first production run or even likely to be recycled from a phone returned under warranty. WF binned the Swift even before being taken over by STK and have done their best to wash their hands of their original customers.

:crying:

Replacement batteries have long been a source of contention for Swift owners in particular. We badgered WF about this for well over a year and in the end they just sent us one gratis...
