For a project I'm working on I need to 6 batteries compatible with Adafruit HUZZAH32 – ESP32 boards (like https://www.adafruit.com/product/2750). However the lithium battery shipping rules mean I can't order them from the adafruit website directly. I've been trying to find a local supplier who has such batteries but I've not been having much luck. Can anybody recommend a source for such batteries that either is in NZ or has some sort of shipping option that will work for NZ?

Looking at the picture and all I can say is "oooh my pkcell!"

But anything with the right JST plug and polarity should be fine. As they have clearly got that from pkcell, and they sell on aliex and appear to not care about lithium export rules you could try hitting them up directly to see if they can send you some of them.

Thanks, nice to at-least know I wasn't missing some well known NZ store etc. I've sourced some batteries that will hopefully work.

I ordered some suitable batteries not long ago from AliExpress and they arrived fine 😊
