What do ypu think of the ebay 3500mah batteries? - Thunderbolt General

Like this one? I just bought one and it doubled the life span of my phone. Check it out!
http://cgi.ebay.com/HTC-ThunderBolt...Accessories&hash=item3a67c15aa9#ht_500wt_1156

Did it actually work that way? I only bought the 1800mah because I wanted the extra charger I got with it but it didnt extend my life by much.

I think they suck ass and the idiot seller needs to learn how to spell.

IDK

Seidio 3200 mAh battery

Does anyone have it? Any comparison pics of the size? Do you guys mind it? How much improvement have you seen?
Mr. WootRoot just bought it.
Pics:
http://www.wootroot.com/blog/
I didnt know theres a 3200. I have the 2800. I doesnt give me twice the battery life of the stock battery
I think is better just buying a second stock battery especially since there are only $25.
They apparntly dont even show the 2800 mAh battery on thier website anymore lol.
Are there any more comparison pics or reviews out there? I am beginning to think I should have just gotten this and not a bunch of standard batteries. Swapping them is a pain, especially with Swype crapping out after every restart.
I bought the 2800 mAh and hated the way it made my phone feel and look. No cover for the camera lens either. I used it for 4 days and went back to my stock battery. My phone obviously lasted longer in between charges, but not enough for me to keep using it.
now 3200mAh
still looks urgly

why not just carry an extra charged 1400 or 1600?

'cause then you need to turn of the phone, swap the battery, wait for it to boot again.
I'd rather have it all in one.
I've decided to just go with a Iogear GearPower Portable Battery. I think it is more versatile.
that back cover looks like a$$
i know it looks ugly but wootroot said he got 36.5 hours on heavy use! i mean, i use my nexus one HEAVILY and i get about 5.5 hours before needing to charge it. u can get it for $70 on ebay so you save a little money, i have the money (i sold my dock and some stuff for the sole purpose of getting this thing) but now that i have it, i dont know if i wanna buy it. its seems too expensive, but charging this thing 3 times a day is starting to get really annoying. if i do, ill post up some pics.
Use coupon code DFN10 for 10% off your order ($50 or more). I don't know when it expires though, but use it ASAP.

[Q] Anyone Tried this? GOLD 1930mAH BATTERY JAPAN

Has anyone tried this?
If it is correct it should be a catch ? It seems original size (no info though), cailmed to be 1930 mah, and Japan made? £9.99 ?
If it is real i can buy 2 or 3 of them?
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SAMSUNG-i9000...eBatteries&hash=item2eb0af80fd#ht_2965wt_1251
i've got one. it's on "the way"
but i will never belive that it was made even near to Japan shore )
When do you expect it to arrive ? and would you be so nice to post your review here ? Thanks .
they said "5 days" wich means around 4 left.
i will let you know how it behaves, my JM1 (lagfixed) already works around 3-4 days with the stock battery on a normal day to day usage.
+1 here, I'm curious as well about this new battery!
Just ordered, should be here in 2 days time.
The cheap ass explosion logo around "1930mah" makes me doubt this thing's for real
Maybe this battery has a real 1600mAH unlike the stock battery w/c only has around 1300 or so a user posted before.

750mAh?
Thats crazy.
I think Japanese dont sell on Ebay anyways. They have their Own Auction Houses
750??
Nah mate, it just sounds not right. What picture is that?
hahaha, what a con. not surprising eh.
No matter what battery it is. It is a nokia one, but it still says 1930mAh and still same "brand"
Wich makes me think i've bought a lemon )

It means if this manufacturer is willing to stick a 750mAh battery in a 1930mAh printed sleeve and sell it that way, what's the chances the same manufacturer is actually selling a genuine 1930mAh battery for the I9000?
Answer, not a lot. It's just a generic print they use to cover all their batteries. Wouldn't put it in my phone.
http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Digi-Tech/_i.html?_nkw=1930mAH&submit=Search&_sid=170948874
Yeah, it's a good old trick!
- "You said it's 1930mAh!"
- "Oh, it's not the capacity of the battery, it's our company's brand name!"

Spare battery

Are there any places yet to get a reasonably priced spare battery for the G2x/O2x?
Sent from my Nook Color!
I just found this:
http://ioomobile.com/shopbybrand/872-momax-battery-for-lg-optimus-2x-p990-1400mah.html
I assume that an O2x battery would work on the G2x? I've used a Momax battery on my N1 and I get decent life out of it.
expansys us has one for pre order. 39 bucks i think.
here it is http://www.expansys-usa.com/lg-optimus-2x-battery-210068/
i personally wouldn't use anything other than an oem battery.
Good to know. I got two non original batteries for my Nexus One. One was a fake from DinoDirect that looked authentic but barely lasted half what it should have. But the Momax I bought from NCIX is so close to the original in performance that I usually forget which one is actually in there.
Sent from my Nook Color!
I'm interested too. Looking for "Optimus 2X" on eBay had no results.
Mugen's (www.mugen-power-batteries.com) working on a battery. Typically they're more amps than stock in the same form factor. They're more expensive than stock and better quality. They have a great reputation and I buy their batteries whenever I can.

We've got another thread in here, that should probably be merged with this one, but a bunch of us are gonna start bugging Seidio to make a larger capacity battery for these. It seems like brand new, it has the standby and usage time that my year+ old Nexus one does.

Yep, I've gotten burned by fake batteries from eBay before, so be careful and only buy batteries with positive reviews.
I was a big fan of the Mugen I had in my G2, hopefully there is an 1800 mAh+ battery out in the near future.

[Q] Battery 2000amh, recommandation?

what about this?
http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-HIGH-CAPACI...ultDomain_3&hash=item2eb5daa87a#ht_2295wt_905
I bought one that looks identical but its 1600 mah and its fake and even worse than the original one so it is certain that it is fake so dont buy it
browse through the many threads about "hi-capacity" batteries. Just because an ebay seller says it's 2000mah, it doesn't mean it will be.
In short they are all false - apart from the Mugen 1500mah battery, which is made by a trusted manufacturer and has managed to squeeze extra capacity into the same battery size.

This one really is a little better than than the original.
But its a waste of money if you buy batteries claiming anything more than 1500 mAh.

How much longer is your battery life? %
i can use my desire hd with ARHD about 2-3 days
I saw a few days ago also 2000 Mah batteries on Ebay just for 16 dollars. Not even worth trying them out because I already know it would be piece of ****
I'll just keep the original battery for now.

			
				
I also bought a fake one T.T

I also bought one of "Those" 1600's, and it brought me maybe a 10 % longer usage.

Extended Batteries?

Anybody have any luck with extended batteries? If so what is a good brand to get and where from?
I bought a generic 1800mAh battery on the cheap through eBay. It has worked fine for me.

Yes, but is it better than stock? I highly doubt it's actually 1800mAh. If it is, then the Chinese have turned into wizards.
I am currently using these. I just started using it, so not sure how different it will be. I will let you know.
The reviews are kind of hit and miss
I seen one on ebay where you remove the battery cover, and it was a case too. with like a 3500ma or so.
But I like my Otterbox to much.
I'm using an Anker 1600mAh from Amazon. It's noticibly better than the stock battery, but it takes a week of overnight charging to get the most out of it.

I bought an Anker Slimtalk external battery for mine. Going pretty good so far. I can top up my battery when it goes too low in the evening.
I bought an Anker 1600 mAh and actually performs slightly better than stock battery.. maybe It's the Rom maybe not... Because with ICS I got 23 hours with stock and 18 with Anker..

are the really cheap batteries on ebay any good? How do they compare to the original?
I have a Dynapak(I think that's the name) from Amazon and I notice a difference compared to stock. I think I paid $16 when I bought it for two. I believe it says they're 1600 mAh or 1650. I'm happy with it.

If it fits inside the stock battery compartment then it will never be more than 1230 mah.

ive got 3 ( i like having spares of everything lol ) and been using em for about a week now. they seem to work the same as stock. they say their 1800mah but i know they're not.

"ProdiCell-Premium-1600mAH-Extended" on Amazon, I cannot post outside links yet but if anyone knows the name, any reviews?

While there's no way to prove or disprove your statement without bench tests, many people have confirmed that the Anker batteries last longer in an apples to apples test.

Might just be temporary. Even on ebay the seller laptopmate USA (same authorized seller from amazon) raised the price to $67 to keep people from bidding. But they did not remove the auctions. So they will be back.
Hey goat, still got your Eternity? I use mine as an MP3 player now. Just put a new digitizer on it and its like new.
Never actually had the eternity. I had the impression. And yeah I still got it. I had to replace mine also.
