    Where can I get a replacement battery for this model?

    The NFC pad has to be transferred to the new battery or it won’t charge correctly if at all. The black appears to be graphite. No matter how carefully I picked the charging coil off, the black still came off in places. Most of it was still intact so the battery charged to 100% (Yay!) and although the battery discharged at a normal rate, Asurion Battery Health app shows it working at only 637% which, oddly enough, is about the amount of graphite that was scraped off during the removal process.
