[request] Do you want a battery charger for the Jolla Phone?
It is good that the battery is removable, but to be truly practical it needs a charger, like this really cool original accessory (check out the video):

I wanted to buy an extra battery from the Jolla shop, but I found none. If this is because the extra battery can not be shipped by air by itself, maybe it could if it was in such a charger ("in the device").
It is not true that the battery cannot be shipped by air by itself. Some carriers refuse them but some carry them, of course, provided they are packed one by one and then re-packed in pairs. Anyway, those who refuse them will also refuse to carry battery-powered equipment.

There are special conditions according to which it is possible to ship batteries, but it is not available to the general user. The general conditions only allow batteries in the cargo hold if they are inside the device. The battery vendors are campaigning for a solution to the problem.
