there are a lot of 3000mAh batteries on ebay... that are not expensive.. are they any good? how much more battery life will i get?
anyone has tried one of those 3000mah batteries?
EBay ones tend to be crap. Mugen s 3200mah is good and does the job reliabiy

Mugen is pretty expensive.. any other cheaper but good brand/model?
i am using mugen 3200, i will score it 8.5/10, the bad points are the case very loose and blocked flash light in a certain degree.
Nothing some blutack wont fix. And no I don't know. There's a post further down documenting some people's experiances with ebay if you want to look for it

Well if you willing to sacrifice your phone's look go ahead and try it, but it will get very ugly with that thickness...

Where can i buy one of those? i never seen such a big battery.
Remember you'll always get what you pay for. If you want a second battery buy an orginal one.
thx for all your advices
i finally opted for an oem battery for desire/nexus one
I'm got the 3200mAh from saido. It's a great battery and worth its price!

how much is it? where did u buy it?
The "ebay" batteries tends to have smaller capacity than announced.

Exacly...anything over original 1400 is bs in my opinion. I've heard about 3000mAh for HTC Evo but that battery is much bigger in size and require custom back case.
i got myself a 3200mAh mugen battery from the states best thing i ever did lasting for 5 days now on one charge
I bought a 3000mAh Extended Battery from the seller.

what rom are you on when you have 5 days duration ?
It's great if you want your battery to last days without charge but terrible if you want a nice sleak phone due to the fact that the 3200amh batteries add extra thickness to the phone which really makes it look ugly in my opinion. Mugen power batteries are really good though they are expensive. I'd be weary about buying from eBay because although they may be cheaper, a lot of the times they're not the capacity stated and have bad quality lithium ions that simply don't hold a charge!
Can I buy it in Ukraine? Somebody know?
I have a 3000mAh battery, but the only way I can get a full charge is with an external charger.
Then I can get between 3-4days from 1 charge.
Charging the 3000mAh in my phone, doesn't seem to last any longer than a standard battery.

UK company BMC Digital claims to have a 1600mah battery for the Desire HD... for just 6.50 UKP. That can't be right, surely?
They also have a 1230mAh battery for 16.95 UKP, which seems more believable.
Sorry that I can't post the links yet, as I'm a new user.
The typical capacity of a battery is one thing but what they print on the label is another thing! I think, it's impossible to improve the original battery 1230 mAh about 370 mAh to 1600 mAh and sell it for less than the half price.

Well I just bought one for the hell of it, will let you know it's performance probably this time next week.
I got 2 of them 1600mAh with a bundle from good old ebay. I've been using them and they last at least as long as the original but not convinced they last much longer....
At least they work! so far
Cheers,
hey do you think it will be possible to make extended batteries (with cover) for dhd? because it has unibody

I don't think so, the battery have to be relatively the same size as the original battery, especially when the battery cover is used as antenna too.
try here for batteries - including extended one...
here is the link...
go to mugen-power-batteries dot com and then to the htc-desire section...
There is only one in the list.
its 1300mAh for 45$.
Very expensive and not very usefull.
Only 70mAh more -.-
So I used the one that was delivered for a couple of days, and let me tell you it is utter 'DOG-EGG' it doesn't last anywhere near as long as the original, but £6.50 for a spare ain't half bad.
Hi
Seen the following battery on ebay:
1600mAh Standard Replacement Battery For HTC Desire HD
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1600mAh-Stand...AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item20b7cc5ca5
Has anyone bought this, and what do you think of this. I know its very cheap
Please give feedback, thanks
personally I think its a bit risky especially at the price they offering..
i still think the stock batteries from htc are the best

i am a very very heavy user and i get two full days mourning til night.
on my stock battery i would get about 12-14 hours normally, less then an entire day.
i think because of the fact i have a bigger battery i leave more stuff on and use even more...
3500 mAh Seidio and eBay China knockoffs
I got the Seidio 3500 mAh several months ago (Sep) and I am glad I did. I wasn't making it past 5:00 PM without it. I also picked up a few of the eBay knock offs, 3500 mAh, from China. They didn't work nearly as well as the Seidio but for only $10 I can't complain. I mostly stick with the Seidio for every day stuff. If I'm traveling I pack the extra China batteries as backups.
One thing about these 3500 mAh batteries is that the phone won't fit in the cradle/docking station chargers. And the battery by itself won't charge in the extra charging bay because of the orientation of the electrodes to the battery.
On standalone chargers for just the battery by itself, I did find one universal charger that can charge the extended battery standalone, from ebay from China. The universal charger that worked was called the "3G Portable Commerce Multi-purpose Battery Charger USB".
Compared to the ebay ones, how much more do you get?
For the ebay ones, do you still get more than the stock battery?
Because if you get at least 2000mah from the ebay ones and they don't explode, I'm thinking of getting one.

Alright so i was looking for an extended battery for my sensation 4G and it looks like there are plenty of 1800mA battery out there that are very cheap! here is the link to one of them:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HTC-SENSATI...&otn=5&po=LVI&ps=63&clkid=4052291442312785527
and here is another one:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2X1850MAH-B...821248?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item5890953b80
So i was just wondering, are these too good to be true? or are they actually safe and sound?
Stick to anker or chichitec if you want cheap.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G
Or the OEM HTC Evo 3D battery.
But this one is wayyy much cheaper than anker or any other batteries. Its 1/10 of the price!
these ones won't break your cellphone but their performance is even worse than the oem battery. Someone on youtube prooved that some of these are only 1000mah underneith the label. Oh and also if you find the anker battery being too expensive ($20 including shipping) perhaps you should rethink owning such a high end smart phone.

Thats a good reason for not buying it.
//
what i meant was u cant compare anker with this cuz its a lot cheaper. Otherwise there are even better batteries out there which cost like 100 bucks so...
If you want high-end, go for the 1950 mugen power EVO 3D battery

Listen to these guys, if you dont want to take from our experiences than go ahead and buy it and see how bad they are.
I'd buy it except I hate ebay. But I just bought a 1900mah battery from amazon for about $20.
Cheap will end up costing you in the long run, I use anker and i wouldn't look else where.
Anker is powerfull !
It was $10 with free shipping so I thought it was worth a shot... I received it about 2 days ago and I cannot tell the difference between the stock battery..
This sucks!
So yes, obviously I didn't expect it to be 4500 mah for $10 but I thought it will be at least 3200 or 3000. It is not.
I just want to warn others before they buy it and to hear other peoples experiences if there are any.
If you want a decent extended battery, buy the Hyperion.
I have that batt and the matching honeycomb case you can get with it and I love it.
I never have to worry about battery life anymore (even running stuff like iheart radio or Sirius online which both totally kill battery life)
I even like the feel/weight of the phone with it installed. When I bought it, I figured I would only use it occasionally. Now that I am used to using it, I never take it off the phone. The phone with the standard battery and my awesome rock quicksand case feels way too thin to me now (something I never thought I would say)
thanks morton....
I will try to see if I can return this battery.
I looked at amazon for the battery you recommended. I found it but I also found another battery: (I can't post a link)
It's called QCell and it is rated at 4200.
Any thoughts on this one?
The one you recommended is more popular but this one has NFC and it also has much more reviews.
Another thing to consider is the separate cradle battery charger that comes with a 2100 battery. This way there is always a battery on charge for a quick swap.
Weigh it. At the most basic, the amount of active material in a battery determines its overall capacity. A 4500mAh battery should be significantly heavier (roughly double) than the stock battery.
Another vote here for the Hyperion 4000 mAh battery. Very happy with it!!!
:good:
What website is this hyperion battery?

Think I'll wait a bit to see if anyone brings out a slim 2800 to 3300 battery with a matching back.

I find this to be the easiest for me. I hate extra bulk, so I just have multiple standard batteries ready on tap.

Of course it must be suitable with the original backcase,, (same size as original battery)
Thank you..

Anker 1800mAh is the best cheap and ive been using it since a few weeks after the sensation was released, with good battery results compared to stock
I bought a couple of 1900mAh Ankher batteries last year in a bundle that can charge a spare at the wall at the same time as charging from the cable. It means that I always have a spare, though to be honest, I easily get a full day from one, let alone two batteries.
Nice to have the extra in case of long trips etc.
Lots of reviews on Amazon so worth a shot.

Yeah the 1900 mAh battery is what I have too and I really get through the whole day even with heavy use. The one that comes with two batteries and a charger I believe was $30 on amazon.
i also got 1900mAh Ankher. it's wonderful. Full day with one.
