Extended Battery Pack - 1st full day

[muddasick]

Hello all,

Fully charged my new extended Battery pack last night. Unplugged it at 7:50am this morning, with heavy use (I'm always tinkering with my phone) it is 8:38pm and im down to %. Safe to say I should make it to 8:50pm which will give me 13 hours...

This is a massive improvement from 6-7 hours of the standard battery.

Still not entirely happy, I was hoping for more like at least 16 hours..

Anyone else have to extended pack? What's your experience?

This is on a normal stock battery which gives me about 27 hours on average.

Ironass is that a battery app?

Or can that chart be found in settings?

27 hours is crazy!!!!!

The battery might take a few charges to get to full capacity. But I don't think your going to meet you 16 hour target based on the battery life you got today. Do some reading in the root section, there are better, free ways to improve your battery life as ironass just displayed.

No... not crazy... that's normal.
