Aftermarket Extended Battery RECIEVED

justtom said:
I felt the same way.I returned mine the next day for a refund and picked up two stranded replacement batteries along with a wall/usb charger and i could not be happier.If i am heading out for a hike,run or bike ride and will be using the gps on Endomondo Sports Tracker along with my Bluetooth stereo headphones then i just toss one or both in my backpack,saddle bag or armband case and im good for the day this way its still sleek and comfortable and its not looking like some old outdated device,I knew as soon as i received it that it would not fit in my armband case and be to bulky to fit in my handle bar mounting bracket so that was the deal breaker.Its a good concept just not functional for my life style.

Yup, on my old HTC I had spare batteries that I could change out and not make my phone any more bulky, I'll probably do that. The extended battery does add about twice the battery life though. I was hoping it was smaller than what it looked like, but it's about an extra 1/4" thicker so thicker than an old brick Nokia.
 
Funny enough i switched back to my stock battery for a bit haha finally juiced my extended batteries up going to drain this one first :D
 
I have had about 2 weeks now. Was mostly charged when I received it. Did a full drain (turned everything on) then it took almost 24 hrours stright to charge. I now can talk for 4 hours and only have about a 15% drain. And that is using Bluetooth. This thing is greeeeeaaaaaaat.
 
I think a trick to this bigger battery would be a stable OC kernel. The over clock actually speeds up your charge. Granted it drains just as fast, but I would honestly love to just increase the charge speed.
 
I've gotta say this thing is great! I don't mind the extra bulk at all. Very happy with this purchase and recommend this battery to all. :thumbup:
 
So this battery is awsome. Lasts forever but the charging is semi slow but to be expected but the heat has kept minimal even while online or gaming with full brightness irecomend it
 
Mine was a 2 pack and 2 cases with I wall charger for 22 buck. I think the wall charger definitely charges these batteries faster than leaving it in the phone but I dont not even care anymore I just always have a battery that's gonna last all day that's why I got the 2 pack. While ones in the phone the other is on the wall
