Very light nail remover smell

Greetings!

I changed my iPad mini 2 battery recently to an unknown manufacturer model and it started rebooting every 2 - 3 minutes.

I purchased then old original battery and the rebooting problem is now gone.

But another problem is I sniffed the battery for some reason :) and found it smells like nail polish remover.

The smell is very light and could be noticed if I sniff the battery itself only, but it worries me.

The battery doesnt have any signs of physical damage.

Two questions so far then:

  • Do I have to replace the battery?
  • Where to buy good working battery or how to distinguish good one?

Thanks a lot!
