I found an amazing battery for cheap!

Guys I just bought for 16 dollars a 2400mah battery from amazon. I have prime so I did not pay shipping. I was a bit skeptical about buying it because its dead cheap and people were talking about batteries being fake and stuff. I don't know what the real specs are on the battery if I rip the label off but I don't care. All I know is that with my heavy use I can still have 40 percent battery by night fall. I do use CM nightly everynight updated and have gps and data on all data. Plus I heavily use my phone. With GPS even yesterday. This battery has been a life saver for me compared to the orginal battery. I will say, you better not miss having a slim phone. This thing comes with a massive back cover which I don't mind because I already am used to that from my G1 battery. Also the back cover is not shiny like the stock cover. But again it goes better with the border of the phone so I don't mind. I highly suggest giving it a look if your in the market for a new battery.

Have you done any practical benchmark testing to find out what the real energy retention on this battery is and what its drain rates and charge rates are? What is the true mAh as opposed to the advertised?
Your spastic prattling is worthless and can only be discounted as hyperbole until you produce genuine data.

I have the practical benchmark in my pants.

Oh!
But seriously, while it sounds great, it's probably too good to be true. I was always skeptical of putting a cheap knockoff battery in my $500 phone. You get what you pay for most of the time.
It may work out great for you, but I don't want to be the one who's battery explodes, just not worth the risk to me.

I think most stories I can think of with exploding batteries were not the generic kind but from "brand name" manufacturers. Although I guess you could be right, I don't see this exploding. If it does I have bad luck. for now I am loving how long it last for the price.

I got these about a month and a half ago, http://www.dealextreme.com/p/3-7v-3500mah-high-capacity-battery-pack-with-back-cover-for-htc-desire-z-55616
I'm quite happy with it, lasts me over 2 days on light use, and about 18 hours - moderate use.

i ordered one for 10 bucks off ebay from china, no joke, thing lasts 2 days light use, and a full day heavy use.
3500mAh 3.7vDC
Problem is how massive the battery is, it has a pretty beefy back-plate extention to it...
Overall though, I don't regret getting it. thing works 10x better imo.

Samsung Galaxy S II Epic Touch 4G 2 x 2000mAh Battery+ Charger

Samsung Galaxy S II Epic Touch 4G 2 x 2000mAh Battery+ Charger
http://www.htcexpress.com/samsung-b...attery-free-wall-dock-charger-w-usb-port.html
For
SAMSUNG
Epic 4G (SPRINT)
I am very happy with the battery life. Getting about 7hrs plus on light surfing, with just data 3g on constant, and bluetooth use only on when needed. Sorry I dont have one of those phone screen for proof but rest assured it the best slim fit battery out there that I am aware. After purchasing the mAh 1800 generic, the mAh 1950 QCell and finally Samsung 2000 mAh which is the best quality being that its not generic or fake just pure brand, and I noticed the difference in performance. Using right now Clean GB 1.1.2 on BML and I mainly use phone for talk with opening 1 or 2 pages of web and some on & off bluettoth, no 4g, no wifi, vibrate or silence, screen off in 2min, no live wallpapers = solid 7hrs for me. Results may vary depending on your apps but I stop using memory apps just a fresh install of CleanGB.
Fit on Epic 4g Sprint sph-d700 phone is tight but good. Plus I use Seidio ACTIVE Case for Use with Samsung Epic 4G - Black so it snugs real nice the back cover with battery.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0..._m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=1Y2D6V06D7ZPGDM5F4SF
Anyway www.htcexpress.com delivered quick USPS and even found a coupon to get 10% off so I purchased 2 orders for $62.00 for 4 batteries and 2 charger, one for my girl. I'm good to go when traveling I have my Samsung 2000 mAh in phone and one spare in jean pocket enough to cover me for when I charge at home.
P.S. i used this code OFF10 in the shopping cart under Vouchers and guess what its cheaper by 10% until supplies last or offer ends.
As always Thank You XDA for all of your wonderful forums on ROMs and Themes, hope you can enjoy this Epic battery Review...

Hey OP, I've never heard of these cells before. Would you be interested in sending me one for testing over in my Battery Reviews Thread. I'd be interested to see how they hold up. They are very sneaky making it look so OEM styled

You must be unlucky, my Hero's charger like that from years ago still works even though you have to manually put the prongs into the outlet lol.
My Epic one is still perfect

Honestly, I don't see why anyone would get this. Unless you need a charger you could get two official 1800mah batteries for just a few dollars more (assuming that is legit ).

Somehow I doubt that.. I got some "1800mah" 3rd party batteries about a year ago and while they worked great at first, they slowly deteriorated and now they won't even last an hour, while my stock 1500mah still lasts at least 15h with light use and is about 1.5 years old.

Stock Battery average at best...
Yeah on stock I would get like 4-5hrs at best now I can last solid 7hrs so to answer your questions the more mAh the more power you can store in it. The trick I have found is not to let go to 0 more like 10 or 20 % before a full charge.
As for the extra charger its neat to take it on the go but I use my cradle charger for home recharging.
I think the 1800mAh Samsung battery is overrated just like the expensive Seido Extended Battery. The 1500mAh and this one both are made in china except this one might be third party because it does have www.chichitec.com printed in the back cover but in the end its just a battery with 200mAh more than Samsung. I might just have to buy this OEM Samsung 1800mAh battery that everyone praises just to see the difference.
Anyway this is just for those who want to have a little bit extra without the bulge of a extended battery cover. I am happy with it and just wanted to share and try it out has suggested in my other thread by a fellow member.

If you've only used that battery for a few cycles, I'd love to see what it actually weighs in at over in my Phone Battery Review Thread

What programs to test with?
I will do it but don't no what apps should I use like screen shot apps or battery measuring apps. Can you suggest any free or paid apps on goggle play I should focus on so that I can post some screen for you m8's? Thanks for your input.
Lanboy =)

The whole idea of the 1800mAh OEM battery is that it fits with the original back cover not making it to bulky, the battery is actually capable of lasting all day with medium-usage. At least compared to my year old 1500mAh one

Battery Monitor Widget is a good one. You need the widget on your home screen for it to monitor.

The built in battery stats should give more than enough info. Post screen on time, overall stats, and the graph.

Anyway can go a good 9hr+ even better than previous stated. One note when charging on USB I get 100%, after unplug I only see 94% (1880 mAh) don't know if this is because I charge in phone or I should use their wall charger to get the full 100% from point of turning on phone.
Now I hear theres a 2300mAh but reviews sound skeptic. Will have to do some more research, but I think I have bridged the gap with extended and slim using this battery.

So I have lol, I can't keep track of all these cheapo battery threads that are always some kind of derivative of 2xxxmAh
My offer stands none the less

The Anker Giant - 7600mAh S4 battery pack

When Samsung released big-screen Galaxy Note seriers smart phones and get the market, we have 5.8 / 6.3 inch GALAXY Mega, 5.9 inch HTC One Max, 6.4-inch SONY Xperia Z Ultra, the coming 6.0 inch Nokia Lumia 1520 ... ... Do we really need big like tab smart phone ?
Not only for the phone itself, we have more and more third party factories offered huge capacity replacement batteries, The Galaxy S3 has 2100mAh original battery, after that, we found 4200mAh, 7000mAh replacement batteries in market. The Galaxy S4 has 2600mAh original battery but we saw 7500mAh which so called world's largest S4 battery in the world.
Well well well ... that's not the end, I just noticed Anker released 7600mAh S4 replacement on Amazon and the nice price is only $32 free shipping.
This beast comes with two different back covers -- black and white. The huge innovative is they provided a 2600mAh internal battery plus a 5000mAh extended battery in the back cover. You need to use the internal battery and battery case together in order to prolong the battery's lifespan. What are you expecting for this one?

Anker has really good products but for me, I think I'll pass. Large capacity but no NFC. Also, great if you run your phone naked. I bet it will be a pain to get a protective case around that thing. I'd rather pay $7 more and get the ZeroLemon Extended Battery.

that is correct. you can not get the factory battery work with extended battery. I haven't really used NFC once but I fear I might in the future, so for me it is not that important.

I've read that the Seidio Active Extended Battery Case works well with the Hyperion battery and just well enough with the Anker 5200.
Also: Is the Anker really larger than the Zerolemon Extended 7500mAh? Why wouldn't it fit into the Zerolemon case made for that battery?

The shipping took longer than I thought, so I just received it this Saturday. :silly:
There was a definite gain in thickness and weight once I installed the battery, but it's not that bothersome. I'd compare it to Zerolemon's 7500mAh extended battery. (I'll post some pics soon.)
I've only gone through one complete cycle (fully charge and discharge) since most of the time I forget to drain it all the way. Anker's instructions recommend to go through about 4-6 cycles of charging and discharging the battery before seeing actual results. (I asked via email.) Once I've gone through those cycles, I'll report back. The battery is doing moderately well so far. I'm at 26% after a day and nine hours, with 3 hrs of screen on time, about 30 minutes of GPS navigation, sync on, push notifications of email and social networking, all smart features on, LTE on, and 75% brightness. :good:

hey guys just wanted to see what kind of battery life you guys are getting out of this battery? i have this already on my s4 but my battery life varies, i am running gummy rom 4.4 using ktoonz 11/16 kernel, im seeing only about anywhere from 8-11 hours of use on a moderate to very moderate use, but i did read somewhere that they recommend you fully charge then use all the way dead on battery like 5-6 times can someone re-iterate me and correct me if im wrong? my frist initial full charge use was awesome...as i got 34 hours out of my battery with about 17% left, but that was light to moderate use.

I'm on my 2nd 7600.. returned the first one because it wouldnt hold a charge very long.
so far im on my 3rd cycle with the 7600.. and it's hit or miss about lasting longer.. because i dont see a way to force the 2nd battery to charge...

I have the zerolemon battery. I forgot the exact mah, but it last me the day with how much I use my phone, full brightness and such.

ok guys update, i've let my phone go through the full charge and completely dead cycles 3 times now, i am now on my 4th charge, but this time it charges up more slowly, i charged it for about 3 hours and it was up to 79% its now been 19 hours and 18min and im down to 50% on battery i think its pretty good so far now, alot better when i was just randomly charging it.

posting another update, battery went completely dead from 79% charge at 1 day 11 hours. moderate useage..... Great battery life!

[Q] ZeroLemon Samsung Galaxy S4 3000mAh Battery

I'm thinking about buying the ZeroLemon Samsung Galaxy S4 3000mAh Battery. Any opinions? I heard zerolemon was a pretty good company but I just wanted to confirm.

I bought mine about a month a go and I can definitely feel the difference in the duration of screen-on time. I went from like 4.5 hours to 5 hours roughly. More than worth the price.

thanks. I'll probably buy them then. 8.99 is a great price haha!

Bought my pair a few months ago. I don't remember the last time I actually plugged my phone into a charger. I just swap the batteries from the phone to the wall charger. I usually get about 15 hours of decent use, about 3.5 hours of screen time, out of each. It's a great buy.

Man i've tried emailing bastexwireless but they said they don't have any in stock.. still waiting for something i'll let you know if i find anything..

Does this battery add any bulk, size wise I mean, to the phone? I know the weight will probably be heaver but I had an extended battery for my old Photon 4G and had to go without a case on it because of the size of the battery. I don't want to have to do that but this battery looks promising from what I see.

maybe its matter, maybe not... but note that this battery do not have NFC chip.
i also thought about to buy that battery, but for me, the lack of this NFC chip is a deal breaker.

U will perhaps find it slightly harder to put the battery cover on, but it will fit the same way as stock. Cases wouldn't be an issue.

They took nfc away so it can have a slightly higher battery capacity.

The battery very slightly bulges at the back. If you have a very very specific tight fitting case you will notice the slight inconsistancy. I had one that fit the Galaxy S4 specifically however once the battery was put in, it created a few mm gap.
I initially found the battery to add about 30 min extra however, it began to lose it capacity after a few months then became the same if not worse than the stock.
No NFC, bulge, same battery capacity wasn't worthwhile. I bought from bastexwireless and they were a pain to deal with so if you buy expect to make it a permanent purchase. I tired to contact zerolemon as well and they just gave me the runaround.

I would say the lifespan of holding its charge is pretty similar to the original samsung battery. Under heavy daily use, it would take abt 3 mths I reckon, for it to start losing its capacity bit by bit. It's just the way they are, so I would still get the zerolemon's since they are pretty cheap compared to samsung's. Over here where I live, the original samsung battery is only sold with the extra battery kit, and it costs abt 30usd. I alr got that so it would still be worthwhile for me to ship the zerolemon's over as I don't stay in the US.
Regarding bastex's customer service, I emailed them once regarding their poorly made wall charger. They responded pretty quickly and offered to send me a new one, as well as 2 new batteries since mine had alr bloated up due to months of heavy use. I guess the bloating issue pretty common. So maybe not all their staff provide quality support. [emoji41]

I just got mine this week. This is day 3 of using it. It seems to do a little better, but I'm still in the break-in phase of the battery. I like the extra weight, as it gives the phone a more substantial feel. It fits fine in my otterbox (defender series, I think). Haven't tested it in my seidio obex case yet. I used their battery with my Verizon Galaxy Nexus, and loved it. I expect good things with it.
I just ordered a single battery ($9.XX, with shipping). I didn't need the second battery, or that external battery charger.

Zerolemon's 7.5Ah batteries for Galaxy S4
Zerolemon's 7.5Ah batteries for Galaxy S4, I ordered 3 from e-bay with 2 chargers. The batteries are heavier than the phone and with case is more than twice as thick(deep) as original phone. Width and length are slightly larger too but not appreciably so. Big plus is am never tethered to wall and each battery will last 20+ hours of constant Internet use. Simply swap batteries after running it until <= 2%; one is typically always on charger. Phone with case/battery carries nicely in a LBT Holster.

The zerolemon wall charger is really low quality. It works (charges ur batt from zero to full in abt 4-5 hrs) for the first few weeks, and then takes longer and longer to charge.
Another alternative to never having to charge your phone on the wall is to get the official samsung extra battery kit. That charger is top notch. I got that and use it with my zerolemon's. So I don't need to deal with a huge bulky extended battery either.

It's a small bit bigger than the original battery. It makes putting on your battery cover a little bit more difficult, but not bad. I have a defender case and it makes it just a little tighter.

So far, my zero lemon 3000 mah battery isn't performing too great. I think I'm going to try and return it for another one to see if the ladder is better. I get about 4 hours of screen on time.

Agreed, I've been using Anker 3220mAh for about half a year now. The good thing is the package on amazon comes with two at a fairly good price and an external charger. Ive been carrying the extra with me always and never had problem with battery life because i just swap when one dies.

I bought a extended battery as well as a standard battery for my Note 4 that I found online that has worked well for me so far. It has to charge all night but I've been getting around 35+ hours of use out of a battery.

Another vote for Anker.

I've got several 10,000mAh ZeroLemon batteries and a couple of Hyperion 10,000mAh batteries as well. The difference, ZeroLemon is a TriCell battery so you won't get a 100% accurate battery reading unless you pull the battery and reinsert it. The Hyperion is a single cell battery that will always report the correct battery states, however the Hyperion doesn't hold up as long as the ZeroLemon in my opinion. I tested both batteries when they first were released for the distributorship in the USA. The Anker battery I've never tried, however there are literally thousands of positive comments on that battery so I'd have to agree it must be a good battery as well. If your looking for a replacement battery pretty close to OEM, I'd go with the Anker. However if your looking for more power I'd go with the Hyperion. And finally if you're looking for more power, durability, and a battery that just don't quit, I'd go with the ZeroLemon. Personally I use ZeroLemon and a full charge with literally everything on, full brightness, Bluetooth, WiFi, heavy use, etc, etc, etc, will run for 2 1/2 to 3 days. But now it's a beast of a battery and it's not that light either. I'm a former SEAL, & I consider my cellphone with the ZeroLemon battery my concealed weapon, lol. One hit with that thing and it's lights out, lol.

Been using my Anker for 1.5yrs too. Love the peace of mind of knowing you will never run out of power and need to charge outside.

I'd just get the official Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Extra Battery Kit. As you will also get a dedicated charging cradle with the battery.

I think Anker always produce good products.That may be perfect.

So, if the Anker battery is the the same capacity as the Samsung, then why would it be any better?

Probably less chance of a counterfeit. Counterfeiters love to copy Samsung products.

I hadn't thought of that. I tend to purchase directly from Samsung to avoid just that; it's worth the few extra dollars for peace of mind, plus should anything go wrong I have a reliable (and accountable) place to go back to.

If you want an battery with a good price, try searching an OEM Samsung battery.
OEM battery is an original one but without proper packaging as it should be sell to a manufacturer not to end user.
An OEM battery might cost much less than the original non OEM.
Make sure it is an Original OEM battery by buying from trusted vendor.

Cheaper for equal if not almost the same quality. Bang for your buck for not having to pay "brand" taxes.
Sent from my SM-N910W8 using Tapatalk

Maybe you should consider buying the extra battery kit. You get a new battery and a charger, so you can charge it outside the phone. In this way you are almost certain that the product is genuine, plus you can use your old battery as a backup, even if it's not in the best shape.

"Brand taxes"? I hear this phrase thrown about quite a lot, but what does that really mean??? I'll overpay for the device, but I'll try to save a few dollars on the accessories. Consider this: anecdotally, there have been more than a few cases of those third-party batteries failing or exploding. If it's a power accessory like a battery or charger, I'd much rather take my chances with the brand's items than a third-party just to save a few bucks.
Put it this way: to me, it's like purchasing a performance automobile but servicing it with aftermarket parts and filling it with regular gasoline, just to save money.

I think it is more like servicing your (performance or not) car at stealership vs local mechanic. As long as you know that they are good trusty mechanic (or good brand in case of battery) you should be good without paying the premium.

Okay . . .
I respectfully disagree, but we'll chalk this up to parallax and leave it at that.
