🔋 90-day warranty is the industry standard for replacement batteries. Batteries naturally lose capacity over time — this normal wear is not covered. Warranty applies to manufacturing defects only.

Revive your Kobo Glo e-reader with this DR-KB12 1200mAh replacement battery. Released in 2012, the Kobo Glo was a popular E Ink e-reader featuring a 6-inch Pearl display with built-in front light, Wi-Fi connectivity, and support for EPUB, PDF, and other formats. After 10+ years of use, the original GN345361 battery has likely degraded significantly — losing capacity, draining faster, or failing to hold a charge at all. This Li-ion Polymer battery restores the full 1200mAh capacity, bringing back the weeks-long battery life the Kobo Glo was known for. Built with grade A cells and multi-layer safety protection against overcharge, over-discharge, and short circuits. CE, RoHS, and UN38.3 certified.
Why This Battery Replacement Matters for Kobo Glo Users: The Kobo Glo was beloved for its front-lit display, allowing comfortable reading in any lighting condition. The 1200mAh battery originally provided approximately 2-3 weeks of reading (30 minutes daily) on a single charge. However, after years of use, the original battery often shows symptoms like: the reader failing to power on even when charged, draining within hours instead of weeks, the device only working when plugged into USB, or the battery indicator showing inaccurate percentages [citation:2][citation:4]. A common issue reported by Kobo Glo owners is that the battery will no longer hold any charge and shows 0V when tested, making the e-reader appear completely dead [citation:4]. This replacement battery resolves these issues, restoring the device to working condition. The DR-KB12 battery (also known as GN345361) is the direct replacement for the Kobo Glo’s original battery — it fits the physical compartment and uses the correct small 2-pin connector. Replacing the battery is a cost-effective way to extend the life of the Kobo Glo instead of purchasing a new e-reader, especially for users who appreciate the device’s 6-inch form factor and E Ink screen.
Compatibility Note: Fits Kobo Glo e-reader only. Please confirm your original battery matches GN345361 or DR-KB12 before ordering. This battery is NOT compatible with Kobo Glo HD, Kobo Aura, Kobo Clara, Kobo Libra, or other Kobo models. The original battery code is GN345361 — if your battery shows this code, this replacement is correct.
