> I’ve lost hope mine will ever ship
Then it's half-way to shipping, ha. I ordered the day after the announcement (I had already ordered a DevTerm that hadn't arrived yet), it took about a year, but that was a preorder.

I have had really good luck with the MXJO ones. There was some dude, he did an entire extreme-autism video, he weighed the batteries, he plugged fans into them and recorded the fans to see when the paper streamers drooped and the fans went off: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMZuHMlRw_0 . The guy is more or less reading a spreadsheet out loud but the punchline is that the reputable manufacturers tend to not lie about capacity, Samsung and Panasonic and Sony have the best batteries, Chinese manufacturers will write whatever stupid number (9800mAh, wow!) and Amazon lets them. 3500mAh lasts about 4-6 hours on the A-06, 8-12 on the R-01, at least for the DevTerm.
