Anyone know what type of battery this is so I can replace it?
Thanks

If you peel off the paper of the battery, you will find out that it is a 18650 Lithium battery. Mine has US18650VT T11250 label. It seems from SONY.
When looking for a replacement battery, see if you can find one with solder tabs opposite to each other. The internal plastic housing of the battery is made exactly for two tabs opposing each other; I had to cut the plastic here and there to make my battery (with both tabs at the same side) fit.
New one is cheaper than a new battery
new battery costs 10$, its a 18650 or LI4000
