I have been trying to track down a spare battery for the Pulse since i got it. Due to its rubbish performance.
I contacted T-Mobile who cannot supply them. They told me that if the phone develops a battery problem then they swap the whole phone for a new one which seems a little extreme.
So ..... i emailed the manufacturer and this is the reply i received:

Guess this means that they are not available.
Interestingly Huawei have pulled the model from their website.
Maybe the pulse is due to become a discontinued model ?
