It’s not at all uncommon to see suppliers of the type charge a 10-50x markup for common or minimally-modified standard products when marketing them as being specifically “for” a particular piece of equipment.

Paying $20 for a $2 battery is a bargain if it gives assurance that one’s ordering the correct item to avert downtime costs of $20,000/hour…
