You can get cheaper units as well. In the US, this is $12 with free shipping.

The battery reported by community members is $9. If cash is tight, you can just try the $9 battery and see if it works. If you have the USB power charging monitor, it will help to see if the battery is charging or not. If the battery is charging, but cannot hold the charge, you can gamble on the replacement. If there’s no current going to the battery, might be the camera main board, which is not replaceable.

Also, can you check the battery charge of your camera to make sure it was fully charged? You can either use windows (right-click on camera icon) or the mobile app.
