This is the one I have. It looks the same and comes from the same type of battery.. You have a look and make sure. I sent you a PM.

To get your old one out of the plastic top, you might have to drill out the lock, so that you can turn it to retract the pin

The more amp-hours or watt-hours, the further you can go. There are loads of them on ebay. just check the size (cross-section). The length doesn't really matter unless you have the seat low. If you order one, always check the polarity with a meter. There is no standard for which way round they go. If they're the wrong way, it's not difficult to swap them over.

the lock works fine now could you

It should be easy enough to wire in. make sure that the wires go colour to colour because there's no standard for which colour goes where in the connector.

Sorry, i wasn't thinking. That one is digital. you need an analogue one with 4 wires, like the 790.

Yes, that's the one. You can leave the lights connector disconnected. I doubt that it can give enough power to work anything useful.

It's difficult to recommend batteries because there are so many. My general advice would be to buy one with branded cells, but how do you know whether they lie about what's inside or use fake branded cells? If you buy from a reputable supplier, there's more chance of the cells being genuine, and if you get any problems, they'll sort them out. I've bought lots of cheap batteries from China. All but one were good value. The one expired before I had a chance to use it, but you could say that the money I saved on all the others paid for it. It all depends on your attitude to risk. If the faulty one was the only one I'd bought, I would have been very angry.

Very few of these vendors actually say which brand of cell or cell identity is used, so one really never knows what is inside.

For instance Insat/ebikebatteries .co.uk sell the Silverfish as the Whitebait and charge £325 for it, one can bet they will have very good cells in them as they have a 75a discharge rating.
Good branded cells come at a price.
