Hello, has anyone tried the mugen power 1550mah battery? Does it make a difference to battery life and is it reliable? (its the same size as the stock hero battery)

1550mAh isn't much of an increase over the 1350mAh standard battery (only a 15% increase actually). You'll only see an increase in battery life of 3-6 hours.

There is, however, a 1750mAh battery that fits with the standard backplate. 1750mAh offers a 30% increase, giving you 7-10 extra hours of use.

Here's the link for the 1750mAh Battery

Hello, thanks for the reply.

Is that for the GSM hero and do you have it? If you do, have you experienced an improvement in battery life yourself?

Thanks again for the link!

Yes, it is designed for the GSM Hero, but no I do not have it, nor any extended battery. I can't really speak for the quality of any of them; however, they claim to be using "the highest quality Japanese cells."
