It looks like there are 2 sellers on ebay selling the 6400 mAh GiFi battery for the Q. The blue label is from Digi-battery, a warehouse seller in California. The red label is from Nankymall, a warehouse seller in Washington state. Both are probably US shipping points for products from China. I've been trying to get on the GiFi website www.gifipower.com just to check but it has been off line for a couple of days. I have 2 Yuneec branded batteries that are swelling and are giving short flight times so I ordered a 2 pack from digi-battery on ebay for $98.00 with free shipping to Florida. I will be very happy with 18 minutes.
Just FYI for anyone looking, I saw that the same seller (digi-battery) is selling the same 2 pack on Amazon for $118.00
Keep in mind that batteries marked as 6300 or 6400 are about the same capacity as the OEM batteries. But it's a good price and hopefully a good battery.

My fingers are crossed! These are for my wife's Q and she has been complaining that the batteries have been getting harder to pull out (she doesn't like breaking a nail). I have deduced the battery swelling may have contributed but I have also noted in the ads that these GIFI and others after-market brands are 1 mm taller and/or 1 mm longer / wider. If they are tighter I'll probably get the business! Like you say "but it's a good price"!
I have had 4 Yuneec batteries and one Venom. The original first pair last about 1.5 years using the oem charger. After a while I bought a more capable charger and then the Venom. The Venom has only seen the new charger but after a year it is bloated. It barely fits now. All 3 are giving me only about 10-12 mins now. I had a big job (golf course) this wkend and they were all cycled through several times. I can't do a job like this again without new power. I may try the Gigi.
I have two of these. Over a year old and no bloat. Got them from Carolina Dronz. I use the Hitec Charger.
GIFI 7500Mah Yuneec Battery Replacement
I see that they are sold out. I am pretty sure you can order direct from GiFi.
