New battery time

I purchase my rez on it's release date. I'm using the stock battery with a wireless charging system. Lately I'm struggling to make it through my normal day without a bump charge. I'm satisfied it's time to get a replacement battery.
Who has the hottest deals on the oem battery? And, before I buy, was a larger capacity battery with the same footprint as the oem ever found? Thanks in advance for lending your knowledge.

Best deal I have found on a battery that is "stock sized" is by Laza, you can actually get a really nice little kit with two batteries, and external charger, and a case for about $23.

Amazon.com: Laza Zcell 1750mah HTC Rezound 2x Battery + Charger + Travel Case Combo: Cell Phones & Accessories

The batteries themselves are rated a little higher than stock, but I never noticed a real difference from the OEM battery in run time or charge times, and they don't get any warmer than the stock ones. Been running them for about 8 months now (alternate roughly weekly) and no issues whatsoever. Plus being able to swap in another battery when needed is nice, I actually have 5 batteries and can go an entire 3-day weekend without power if needed.

For the money and quality, it's a good deal in my opinion. Grab an extra microUSB cable for the case, throw it in your computer bag (or whatever you carry around all the time), and you can charge a battery and your phone at the same time whenever needed.

Thanks for the post. I ordered this today since my upgrade isn't till October so the Rezound will be my phone still ill then and probably longer.
 
I bought the Laza combo based on acejavelin's post, and am totally satisfied with it. I only charged one battery (out of the two that come in the combo) and have been using it daily for about a week now, and noticed a significant improvement over the original battery that came with my Rezound (which I bought new in Nov. 2011).
