Two of my launch DS4 (blue PCB) thumb sticks rubber peeled off so i planned to replace the batteries too.

Is any of the batteries in this site are good replacement for the stock DS4 battery? I couldn't find any reviews on them.

Or should i buy batteries from AliExpress? I plan to get batteries similar to the ones recommended by Reddit
https://www.reddit.com/r/PS4/comments/2rtimv/diy_double_dualshock_4_battery_capacity_internal/

Is there guidelines to choose batteries for the DS4?

Original Battery Dimensions:
LxWxT(mm)
54mm x 35mm x 8mm
Adafruit/PKCell LP-803860:
LxWxT(mm)
62mm x 38.5mm x 8.5mm

Thanks for reading.

Edit 01:
https://m.aliexpress.com/s/item/32769943613.html?spm=a2g0n.search-cache.0.0.7f25570fBwcYOF#autostay

Found a battery with the following dimensions:
LxWxT(mm)
50mm x 34mm x 10mm

Will the thickness be a problem?

Edit 02:
Found another thread that mod DS4:

The modder soldered two Nokia batteries, BL-4J 1200mAh together.

Found the thread from http://www.psdevwiki.com/ps4/DS4_Mods

Edit 03:
According to Amazon, BL-4J 1200mAh dimensions are 16.2 x 8.4 x 1.6 cm

Edit 04:
Lazada states a different dimension instead:
6.0 x 0.5 x 5.5 cm

Confused now.

Edit 05:
http://www.cpkb.org/wiki/Nokia_BL-4J_battery
59 x 37.5 x 4 mm

The dimension states by this website makes the most sense.

Another battery with 10mm thickness:
LxWxT(mm)
50mm x 34mm x 10mm

Edit 07:
Ordered 2x Easy Lander 2000mAh battery. Will update after 1 month.

Edit 08:
Received all items ordered.
The Easy Lander battery specs:
22 AWG JST connector

Compared to the DS4 battery:
24~32 AWG 2-pin JST-PH

Easy Lander cable is thicker and it have the wrong connector housing.
currently regret not buying from Adafruit..

Now have to buy female crimp pins and 2-pin JST-PH.
Bought
JST PH Crimp Contact 30~24 AWG
JST PH 2mm pitch
