It looks like a NiMh pack from the [guide|15522|teardown|stepid=49572]. Don’t mess with that battery unless you genuinely have to - NiMh is a horrible technology compared to LiOn. The other problem with rebuilding it is you need a balanced set of binned cells, which will probably mean buying multiple battery sets and picking the closest match - a little difference is okay as it’s expected (but not much), but you can’t have one cell with 100mAh less power then the others as it’ll run short and the other cells will get negative charge and fail. Forget NiMh exists when you replace it. NiMh is a DUMB technology in the sense all of the pack quality and balancing issues are done with the charger and device owner to properly handle. On the other hand, Lithium is smart and handles all of this.
