Mugen Extended Battery and Horizontal Leather Case? - Nexus One Accessories

In spite of trying a lot of different battery life lengthening techniques, have determined that I need to consider new battery. My device is now older than one year, so probably not under warranty. I like the idea of the extended life battery, but also use a horizontal leather pouch type case (which needs to be replaced). Would love comment/recommendations from anyone who has an extended life battery with obvious bump out on back cover and a suitable horizontal pouch type case. It may be that this not practical.

Awesome case for extended battery

Just picked this up. I have the Hyperion battery, but this case still works fine since both have the same battery and back door.
The case is great. $7 and it's the nice smooth tpu, not that cheap honeycomb crap fake of a tpu case that Hyperion makes.
This is nice to hear. I have a Hyperion 4200 mah battery on the way and this exact Qcell TPU case, so hopefully I have the same experience with it.
I got the white back cover with the hyperion (didn't realize they had black ones at the time) and the black TPU case, so I may just paint the hyperion back cover black if the color difference bothers me that much lol.

If you have the case on the phone you won't see it. Lol. No need to paint. I have a blue back on my Hyperion.
Chiming in. It's a bit expensive but the Seidio surface extended battery cover and case will work with the normal extended holster if you opted for one of those at the time of purchase(go by the name of pt or platinum as well).
Best combo, but expensive and fits the 4500mah battery

I have a QCell extended battery, but I don't use it. The battery cover interferes with the camera flash. I think it's because the flash and camera lens are surrounded by the back, and peek out of holes in the cover. It's something I've noticed on both mine and my wife's phones.
That seidio case looks like it wouldn't have that problem, because the camera and flash are not surrounded by case. Do you happen to know if it would work with the QCell 4200mAh battery? Also, I can see where to order the case on Amazon, but I don't seem to see the battery cover. Where can I get that (assuming it would work with the QCell battery, of course)?

The Seidio battery door + case will work with the 4200 mah batteries from QCell, Hyperion (and Anker i think?). The reason why its superior is because the battery door and the case taper out/bulge out slightly where the battery is. The top and bottom are absolutely flat similiar to stock. So with the flat upper area its essentially the same stock Camera and Flash visibility with the ability to hold the extended battery.
I actually did a review on this under the AT&T section with pictures and information on how to order the battery door separately without a bulk battery purchase.

Thanks. I'm going to get the battery cover and the case with the kickstand (miss my Evo kickstand). I contacted Seidio and asked about the battery door, and they said that I could order one from them for 14.95 plus S&H. The case is on Amazon. Early Christmas present!
I had a Seidio extended battery and case for my Evo, and I loved it. Great products! Expensive, but great!

To order just the battery back cover/panel you need to call Seidio Customer service (phone number is on their website).
When you speak to a representative, advise them that you are interested in purchasing battery door for the Galaxy S3: (Product Code below).
Product Code: BVY35SSGS3-BK

water resistant extended battery wtih NFC?

Does such a battery exist? I have been looking through several reviews of batteries and I don't see any that keep the water resistance. Not sure if this is a deal breaker for me or not.
Also in the past I have liked the Seidio set up since it seemed to be the only/best option for a protective case that fit an extended battery. It doesn't look like they have one for the S5 yet. anyone know if they are planning on introducing one?

Another option for a case to fit an extended battery is a TPU case for the Hyperion 6500 mAh battery. No water resistance however.

[Q] What Larger Replacement Batteries Are Available?

I recently read about the Hyperion battery which basically allows you to swap your existing battery for an 8000 mAh battery, and comes with a different case. I think the stock battery is something like 3250mAh.
What other batteries are out for the Galaxy Note 4 and in what capacities? I'm not asking for charging boxes. Secondly, are there any cases available to fit these larger battery packs?

There's Zerolemon extended battery 10k mah (I think) which is like a brick but it is a rugged case (many users have problems with the battery calibration. Mugen Extended battery with qi charging and a stand but has no TPU cases available, no protection whatsoever.
I like the Hyperion 8k because it offers a TPU case and it also doesn't add much bulk
Waiting for my Hyperion to arrive. Zerolemon is too bulky and with all that battery reading issues i've decided to go with less capacity but more comfort.
I'm no stranger to bulk. I currently use a UAG case and I love the size. I'm wondering how they compare in size.

[Q] Charge case with holster?

I'm looking for a rather specific accessory. I use a generic holster with a stand case. This one specifically.
http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OIL30YA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I want to extend my battery life, but still retain the holster. I've looked at all the extended battery threads here and found that most of the batteries have a completely useless rounded replacement backplate that makes a holster unusable, and that the Zerolemon battery has issues with the phone's battery reader.
Based on this, I'm looking for a battery case with holster. It just seems like a better solution to the issue. I'm looking for something like this:
http://smile.amazon.com/PowerBear®-...424651599&sr=1-1&keywords=Note+4+battery+case
but with a fitting holster and without the stupid thing blocking the S Pen slot. Does anyone know if a product like this exists?
Zerolemon?

Protection Case for extended battery

Dear all,
I bought a 7500mAh Extended Battery+Back Cover and of course my old case doesn't fit anymore. Does anyone have any advice on which case would work? the phone is already much bigger now, so if possible, I would like something strong but not too bulky.
Edit: I forgot to mention, that I live in the UK.
Thank you!
There's not much on the market market. I didn't find any at all that were water resistant.
Currently using an Anker 7500 with included case. Kinda plain but works. $30 on amazon.
I've used the Uno case... It has built in battery + you put the stock battery in, they acts as one. When I bought it I thought it was 2 removable batteries, but it is not. Also, the coating on the case rubbed off where I hold it... it's a dull black there instead of a fuzzy black, not real noticeable, but not the quality product I was looking for.
The best selection is here http://zerolemon.com/product-category/samsung/galaxy-s5/
The one I always wanted is the Mugen 5600, it has color cases, qi, but only 2x battery.
