Jolla battery data sheet

There has been a lot of discussion on availability of spare batteries, and urgent need of those has even taken us to test with other manufacturers batteries, risking even the user safety according to warnings posted by Jolla. However, the situation hasn't improved, different batteries seems to still be tested (somewhat understandable), so let's have a Sailor answer to this:

What are the official specs of Jolla battery, including all the needed information to manufacture one similar one?

If we could have this data on openness, community might be able to find a smaller manufacturer to provide us these long wanted spare batteries. If not officially supported, ok, if voiding the warranty, ok, but at least safer and right sized batteries could be found at some point this way.

I'll accept an answer with the required data, but I'm happy to close this question as outdated if I see another post sharing that official batteries are available. Thank you in advance Jolla, I'm sure you want to help us on this!

EDIT2: Results after two weeks: 136 answers, 84% willing to buy a spare battery. Poll is open for new votes

  • 22 I don't think I will need a spare battery within the next 3 months
  • 8 I'd buy a spare battery from Jolla Shop (only) for 25€ within the next 3 months
  • 89 I'd buy a spare battery from Jolla or 3rd party for 25€ within the next 3 months
  • 10 I need one even faster, and I'm prepared to pay even a bit more
  • 9 I need one, but the price should be less than 25€ for me to buy
