I just got my lgv10 and love it so far. I got the powerbear extended battery and its doing its job but the supplied case inst the best fitting thing ever. I though I had saw on the forums someone getting an extended battery and putting an otterbox case on with it. - possibly with some slight modifications. Has anyone tried this?
Nvm - I found what I was looking for. Its just where people are dremeling out the hard shell for the extended battery to fit through.

Does anyone have the HLI-i500XL battery & cover from Mugen, and if so what are your opinions of it? Do you have any pictures of it?
Sorry, I'm still a noob so I can't post a link.
Thanks.
I have the oem extented battery and door. Used it for one day and hated it cause it kills the biggest feature of the phone which is the fact that its so thin. It just sits in my desk drawer now for emergencys. I would love to find a thin extended battery.
havent seen anything on this so I decided to post,

Its out of stock right now but I just got mine in the mail
I had a 3000mah cameron Sino battery that was godly but so big.. I ran a talkmoretime Extended battery case cover with no back cover for a while.
Testing the 2800 battery right now. the case looks sweet its big enough to make it really comfortable playing games since I do alot of emulation gaming at work
I just purchased an extended battery for my Nexus S 4G, this one specifically:
http://www.amazon.com/Seidio-Innocell-3500mAh-Extended-Battery/dp/B0053735IY
Now, I have no complaints with the battery, it's fantastic. However, the new back that it came with is very cheaply made, and I'm afraid it's going to break. I also don't really like the feel of the material.
Does anyone know of any cases that can fit a Nexus S 4G with an extended battery in it? I've been Googling around and have yet to find anything. I've pretty much just resigned to being careful with the back, but I figured I'd ask you all to see if anyone knows of something that will fit. I was using a silicone case before (tight fit, good to grip) but anything would pretty much be better than the back of this.
Thanks!
Did you have looked in Power-Skin?
I'd put the link but the system don't leave me... Because I have less than 10 post...
But one of my friend use it on a IPhone and he say its amazing...

You're probably not going to find any cases to accommodate the larger battery. Thats why I went a different route and got multiple 1500mah batteries. I keep one in my wallet just in case the one in my phone dies, I wind up with almost the same battery (3500mah extended vs 2 1500mah batteries) but get to use any case I want.

Hey folks,
I tried searching but could not find the answer. I am about to the buy the otterbox for my lovely G2. I love otterboxes but before I do, anyone know if an extended battery (like this one) would fit with the otterbox on it?
I assume not, based on prior experience the otterbox must be pretty tight but wanted to double check.
Thanks

Pysch. I just read that batteries' description and it seems it does not add any thickness to the battery. Has anyone proven/disproven this?
Also my original question still stands I think as I am still thinking of getting an extended battery. My G2 does last about 10 hours of normal use, but who knows when you might need the extra juice; better safe than sorry I think.
Anything that fits in our existing battery door will work with an Otterbox.
Seidio tends to work OK, though I prefer OEM batteries. HTC makes one for the EVO Design 4G that is 1520mAh and fits inside the G2 perfect as well.
Thanks.
And so is it safe to assume anything does adds even a little bit of bulk does not fit with an otterbox?

If the original battery door closes it should be fine. Any battery that needs its own battery door won't work with the otterbox.

Just want to add that as much as I love the otterbox, I have gone through 3 of them in a year and they are no longer in production so if it breaks you will not be able to get a replacement under warranty

Thanks for the heads up. I have ordered a cheap case from amazon but still desperately want to find an otterbox. Their cases are so amazing, it sucks there are so few out there for the G2. I am a mission now, seems every store online that lists it says its out of stock once you buy and send the money..
I wonder how good the battery life on seido batteries are, currently I'm using a 1520mah oem battery.

I've heard conflicting reports so good luck. I might try on eventually but I'm getting solid life out of stock for now. Finally found an otterbox on eBay and it's coming next week can't wait. .

if someone could help me out with sizing I woukd be willing to buy an extended battery and modify my commuter box to fit it.
I dont mind the size of the commuter. its great. so bonus if a bigger battery can hide in there.
seen the 5200mah battery and thought maybe? I have access to all the tools required just need the info. the case utself is about 15mm thick. with some sticking up above the screen of course. it seems to me that zerolemon one might fit. but likely not. or else the plastic would need to be planed down very very thin.
thanks in advance

thats for a defender though. I really dont want to use it. and they cost a lot. the commuter was thrown in for free with the phone and is a good size and provides the level of protection I need.
I guess I will go ahead and find a good extended battery and start engineering. I realize now the zl battery is obvioisly too big among other things. a size of 1.5 times stock battery would be perfect. will wait. and read reviews in the meantime and come back when ive built something.
