Extended battery on the M5P will trigger RID and will put your drone overweight so it needs to be registered in the US. However, you get the benefits of the longer flight time.

Here's one source for a genuine DJI M5P Plus battery for a reasonable price, delivered by FedEx quickly, and with no additional fees.

eBay seller is from Japan

Not yet. I might be in the market for one more Plus battery and then I get one aftermarket generic to wrap up the M5P; 6 in total should be fine.

Actually, in the U.S., RID is already broadcast with the standard M5P battery, so there is no "triggering" of it by any heavier battery. All batteries used in the M5P now broadcast RID, regardless of weight, and pilot registration is also required with all batteries, as no battery configuration is below 250g. Might as well always fly with the Plus batteries for 50% more flight time for a few dollars more.
