The Sharper Image Literati Tablet: What are the specs for a replacement battery for my Literati?

Tue, 21 Jan 2025 12:39:47 -0700

I measured physical dimensions of approximately 120.97mm x 58.6mm x 4.1mm. The markings on my battery are exactly the same as shown on the guide for replacing the battery. Besides looking for something in the 2750mAH range (how much higher can I go?), what voltage should I seek? Thinking 3.7V

Just wondering if there are other specifications I should pinpoint.
