Anybody know where i can get a DSTV Drifta replacement battery?

I have had my unit for a while, hardly used it, but recently when i charged it up and used it, the battery only lasted me about 20 mins.

Any help appreciated.
 
I noticed the battery type on my Drifta was the same as those used in my Nokia 6680. My Nokia's battery worked perfectly in my Drifta.
I don't have my Drifta with me now to check but I believe it used the battery here.

Else ask Multichoice?
 
Thanks.

By the way, did you change the battery because it also became useless after a very short time?

No. I needed viewing time for a long period and I couldn't charge the battery.
 
Okay cool.

I am beginning to suspect the batteries they provide are absolutely useless.
 
If you want a spare battery get a Nokia BL-5C. I see you can get a 1616 for about R179, which has a phone and charger and the battery which may be cheaper than just a battery.
