Where Can I Buy Original Cordless Phone Batteries?
- Many different types of cordless-phone batteries can be found on eBay. The "Cordless Phones" sub-category of the "Electronics" section has the "Batteries" category within, which contains the most listings. Products can also occasionally be found in the more general "Batteries" sub-category of Electronics.
When shopping on eBay check for great Buy-It-Now prices and, if possible, compare the prices of any original OEM batteries to the manufacturer's price and to compatible generic batteries. It is important to be very cautious and read a listing's full description before making a purchase. Some prices seem great until potential buyers realize the product is located in Hong Kong, meaning longer shipping time, higher shipping costs and, most likely, a low quality, generic battery.
Low prices can also sometimes be had on auction-style listings that get few or no bids before ending, but these bargains are harder to find. Always remember to only buy batteries in new condition (you wouldn't want to pay for a battery that is already half-way through its lifespan), and ask the seller any questions necessary to help make your decision easier. - Several different cordless-phone batteries for various manufacturers can be found in the large product database of Amazon. The primary place to find cordless phone batteries on this site is within the "Telephone Accessories" section of the "Accessories & Supplies" sub-category under "Electronics." For the most relevant results after navigating to this category, a search should be performed for the phone manufacturer, at the very least, if not the phone model number as well.
While some of the batteries available for sale on Amazon are sold and shipped directly from Amazon, the site also offers third-party vendors and independent sellers to sell products through the marketplace, widening the selection and availability of batteries. Though not all of the cordless-phone batteries found on Amazon are original OEM parts, most of the others come from reliable battery manufacturers and are not shipped from China.
The product page of any given battery will let you know whether it "ships from Amazon" or from another seller (whose name will be displayed). Each product page can also display a list of all sellers offering that product for sale in various conditions, although you should only buy those labeled as "new." - The best way to ensure that it is an original OEM battery is to buy directly from the original phone manufacturer. Many of the major cordless-phone manufacturers now offer online stores, which also happen to sell the accessories for the products they make.
Original batteries for cordless phones are available for purchase directly on the websites of VTech, Panasonic and Uniden, among others. Just visit the official website of your phone's manufacturer and look for an online store that may sell phone accessories.
Although the prices may not be the best available, buying a battery direct from your manufacturer ensures the highest level of trust in the transaction and the highest-quality product available for your specific phone.
