For those gamers, YouTube watchers, extended battery life is great here is a screen shot as you can see.I get a little over a day worth of juice that includes, playing an hour of video game, watching YouTube videos, using my hotspot, surfing the net, updating apps, opening emails, texting, voice calls, which I use for work,12hr shift, have to call every hour(security) which is 30 sec a call but adds up threw out the shift.overall this battery is awesome

Which extended battery did you get? Can you provide a link?
How much thicker does it make the phone?
I've owned extended batteries in the phone (as my last 2 phones hardly made it 4hr off the charger) but this one does fairly well I feel. However if I can add an extended battery and allow the phone to do more (more widgets) I may go this route again
Here's the info, ok couldn't put a link because the link takes you to my account, but the sellers name and info is in the pic,$8 is a steal, yes it makes it much thicker, but it doesn't bother me I only use it for gaming and when I watch another video,I might buy another battery.I'll try post to post as picture with the extended battery, my sg3 is blue and the back I got for it is white but that's my choice a two tone color lol.

It actually doesn't look all that thick I don't think, especially for a 4500mah - and like you said $8 is a steal for this. I'll have to pick one up thanks again :good:
no problem anytime and, this battery doesn't make my phone hot like the stock one.

Awesome thanks!
btw - can you confirm whether this battery supports NFC? I believe that was an issue with some aftermarket batteries before. It should say on the battery itself I think
no sorry no nfc with this battery, there's one that's,3000mah that has nfc, but I can't remember which company has that one, I don't use nfc,atm but when I do I still have my stock battery.

I've hit close to 36 hours with heavy use on Beans stock rom w/ the stock battery. You should be getting twice this with a 4500mah battery.
Jesus christ that battery is huge. i would get one doe.
I use the hyperion 4000+ battery and the matching case, it is totally awesome.
I stream audio (iheart radio or Sirius online) all day at work which is an absolute battery killer and the Hyperion lasts so long I never even bother to check my battery gauge anymore.
I only get a day because I just got the battery on Friday, haven't broken it in yet, I'm sure it will last more then a day++, but remember 4glte sucks battery, plus I play massive games, stream lots of video.so I'm very happy so far with this battery .and besides I'm still stock not even rooted or unlocked yet.

4300 w/NFC, Works Great, only $15!
I got an extended battery direclty from a Chinese Manufacturer. It's 4300mAh - works great - and has NFC. (The NFC works great too.).
The battery is on Aliexpress.com here: http://www.aliexpress.com/product-f...sung-Galaxy-S3-I9300-4300mAh-wholesalers.html
Or just search for 4300 Samsung Galaxy S3 NFC Battery on Aliexpress.com
I did a video review of the battery as well as the Hyperion extended battery case. You can check it out here if you want: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOZivj2__l8
Anyway, I highly recommend this battery. Can't be beat for the price and get to keep NFC!
I just hope Hyperion, Anker, Siedio, or Mugen release a 3000 or so mah battery. 4000+ is just too large for me personally. I mean on the stock 2100 mah I'm getting killer battery stats for only being 2100mah and pushing a 4.8" screen or so. If we could get a good 3000 mah batter I don't think the design of the phone will be ruined and also think I could mod an OB defender case to work with it. Not possible w/ a 4500 mah battery.

I had 2 batteries for my previous phone, I can confirm it was a royal pain in the ass:
keeping the spare one charged (I had a desktop charger that had a space for the spare battery, but it soon stopped working)
having to take the battery out & reboot
Such is the design of the DHD that the less I have to open the plastic compartments, the better
It does also depend on what you want the extended usage for: I wanted to be able to record a GPS track for 5-6 hours at a time (mountain-biking), so stopping to change a battery, wait for reboot & then start the appropriate app took me 10 minutes once
Everyone's needs will be different, but for me at least, the 5000mah power pack is just right for me.
I use a PowerMonkey for mine. I get about 1.5 charges out of it. I miss my exspect recharge4 (left it at am ex's house) that thing was great, you really do get 4 full charges from it. Hard to find them now though. My PowerMonkey cost about £36 from Mailing in the UK.

The nice thing about our fairly dumb fuel gauge chip is that there is no need for battery calibration in any case - even with a major battery capacity change. Our fuel gauge is based on battery voltage only. (Also why wiping battery stats does NOTHING in terms of fuel gauge on the Infuse.)
The only potential tweaks that might be beneficial (but not necessary):
1) Universally crank battery charge current to 800 mA in all charging phases. IMO it's only safe to do this at lower battery voltages with the stock battery, but with a 3500 mAh battery, you could keep it at 800 all the way to charge termination.
2) Probably charge termination current needs to be tweaked up a bit in the kernel if you want to properly terminate the charge. It may be OK as is.
3) The fuel gauge load compensation values will probably be different. A large battery like this should fluctuate less under load. Really this only has a small effect on battery percentage of charge reporting. You'd probably see a falsely high reading under load.
I received it yesterday and I have to order pouch since my ballistic case doesnt fit it.
Also, after looking through our kernel source - only the Vibrant does load compensation, and only when playing video or using camera.
So the only tweak one might want in the kernel for this battery would be a full-time bump of the charge current to 800 mA. (Which is possible.)
I too received it yesterday, and all I can say so far is that by now i'd be down to 35% and plugging in (4pm) while now I am at 62% on infused b3.

I was messing around on amazon and seen a few 1700mah batteries and am looking in to one.
Why spend so much on one battery
As long as you dont mind switching batteries atleast once a day hit up Ebay and get 2 or 3 batteries depends on your use, and an external wall charger for around 10 to 13 bucks. they are also slim and after conditioning they last as long as stock batteries.

wow, 41 bucks on amazon and just as many 1 star reviews as 5 stars. Think I'll stick to my aftermarket batteries on the cheap.
One of these would go perfect with the otterbox.
I know a lot of these batteries that are labeled on amazon and ebay are actually stock knockoffs labeled as 1750, but truly share the same capacity as the 1400. I haven't tried or talked to anyone that's tested this listing so it could be a true claim. Just a warning for people to keep in mind. A lot of guys on ebay are even selling 1750 extended batteries that arrive still using the 1400 mah labels.

I know a lot of us are looking to buy extended batteries, and some of us have already purchased some. I am personally in the former group. It's hard to judge thickness since a lot of the pictures don't really give you a side view, and don't have anything in the picture to provide scale.
I'm hoping we can use this thread as a collection of pics of the various extended batteries/battery cases to help each other see how bulky a particular battery is in order to make a more informed purchasing decision.
If you're going to add a picture, please post the brand name, mah, and try to include something in your pic that adds scale (ruler, penny, standard pencil, before and after pic, etc). Also, if you've had it for a bit, maybe throw in a couple of lines stating how you feel about the battery in regards to size/performance and whether you would recommend purchasing it.
