If you need a replacement, there’s official Steam Deck batteries now available on the iFixit store. It is a bit difficult to remove, but it’s worth it to extend the life of your Deck.
Unfortunately, while Valve outsourcing repairs and parts to iFixit is great for most regions, iFixit stopped shipping to my country a few years ago, so this complicates things quite a lot :(
Do you think it might be worth finding some sort of proxy shipping service that can buy in another country and send it over? I’ve used a few when buying stuff from Japan to ship over here in the UK, and have found them to be pretty useful. Worst comes to worst, you could always try (insert somewhat shady Chinese marketplace of choice here, there’s a bunch) and hope you get a good battery.
