Charging dock and batteries

I found the Verizon Vortex upright charging dock that worked very well on my Optimus V. Has anyone had any luck finding one that (although not yet made) will also work with Triumph?

Also, are spare batteries available yet, if so any links. I'll pay, since I use much of the battery power in 4 hours!

Thanks
 
soundping - or anyone else - have you tried this battery?

I have an old nexus one battery - and it does NOT seem to fit, it is too tall (and not quite as wide) - also, look at the battery contacts on that picture they are flat instead of "female" - not sure if that makes a difference.

I am guessing with enough brute force I could probably jam it in there, but I'm not going to try it until I have a backup VM phone.

Damn, I was all excited too :D

I can get all the way through the day usually, but only by consciously not using it too much.

Does anyone think the LG G2X charging dock will work with the triumph??
The dimensions are almost perfectly right... the Triumph is... 4.8 x 2.5x 0.4

The LG is...2.5 x 4.9 x 0.4 in.

I'm also on the lookout for spare batteries. I found it was necessary with my Droid Incredible to buy a couple and keep them charged up because the battery life was so poor, and I'm finding my Motorola Triumph to be similar. With the Incredible, there were some OEM batteries for another handset (maybe HTC Touch 2?) and these were $5 each on eBay.

Actually the stock battery for my Triumph is acting a little odd - basically once it gets down to about 25%, it just loses the rest of its charge and switches itself off. Anyone have any idea why this might be, apart from just having a dud battery?
 
Looks like that USB phone plug is in the middle.

Yeah, I noticed that after I posted the video. I went to check mine out and realized because of the video cable out, the charger port wasn't centered.
There's still not any out for the Optimus V ... Oh well, back to the drawing board I guess.

Thanks for your help
