I have a new Uniden SDS 100 with the larger battery. Can I get the thinner version, is it compatable and where? I was hoping to use the thinner one when I go out for a couple hours. Not as bulky.

Keep an eye out here to see if/when they come back in stock. Yes they are compatible.

They can sometimes be found on fleabay but buyer beware.
FYI,
The small battery is also compatible with the external charger.

I called Radioworld in Toronto and after using Scannermaster for the product number, they could not find any. Do any Canadian members have a store I can try and see if someone has it in stock.

Your best bet is to give them your email and get a notification when they come back in stock.

Scanner Master had and sold out twice on those... It may be awhile if they can get them again...

The more requests made for an item increases the chance of more being produced to meet that waiting demand. 
Little chance that another vendor will get them if it's a Scanner Master Exclusive! product. (Per the website)

Good point... I just noticed it says it's exclusive to them...
Okay thanks. I guess I'll just wait till they come back in stock and I did request one from Scannermaster.
An alternative route may be to "buy used." That's what I did after purchasing my SDS100. I placed an ad in the "Wanted" section of the classifieds here on RR and got a pretty good deal on a battery and door. I needed the thinner battery so the scanner would fit in my existing scanner stands / holders.

Before purchasing a thin battery, read this: (254) **SAFETY ALERT** SDS100 original (thin) battery severely swelled | RadioReference.com Forums I had one of the original batteries with the problem and sent it Uniden for their analysis.
