I bought a battery from sib-usa and it arrived 100% DOA.
I had to pay the return shipping to send it back for replacement.
The replacement  was really not much of a battery either.
Sib-usa is NOT!!! recommended.
I really do wish that I could find a honest battery seller but
so far I'm about 0 for 7.
Some did work but not at all well.
Tip: if you see the phrase "manufactures warranty applies"
it really means that there is no warranty.
