Accessories Are the 2600mah & 3500mah battery thicknesses the same?

Pretty much what the title says, I'm looking to squeeze a 3500mah battery in the OEM extended battery back door, but I'm not positive on the dimensions.

From the research I've been able to gather the 2600mah batteries are 8mm thick and fit the OEM extended door. I'm not quite sure the thickness of the OEM HTC 2150 that typically comes with the OEM extended door.

Can anyone confirm the thickness of the 3500mah?
 
I can confirm that the Seidio 3500 will NOT fit in the OEM back door.
But....to go off topic for a moment.
I just received mine a little over 4 days ago.
Charged it overnight, and at 4 days, 3 hours and 15 minutes, with 30% battery left.
Usually, it dies at about the 16 hour mark with the original battery.

Everything is turned on, including GPS, and am not running anything for battery management except the stock applications.
I know there have been many threads about the extended batteries, with a ton of technical information in them.

All I know is, I can't seem to kill this thing.

Ye, the phone is thicker, and heavier.
But it still fits in my pants pocket.
And I actually have come to prefer the more substantial feel of the thicker battery.

Glad to hear you're having good results with the Seidio.

Just to clarify, I'm curious about fitment with the oem EXTENDED back door and the 3500mah battery.
 
The HTC 2150mAh battery is 9mm thick. I don't think a 10 mm thick battery would fit into the extended back cover that came with my 2150. I know the Seidio comes with its own back cover though.
