Rubbish Battery Life & Extended Battery Opinions...

Hi All.

HTC Wildwire S unroot and no special ROMs or anything.

Mobile Network=off
Bluetooth=off
WiFi=off
etc etc etc

From a full charge the battery only lasted 5 hours.

In those 5 hours the phone was idle for an hour, then for 4 hours following that GPS was logging for 4 full hours, camera used about 20 times with about 5 shots using flash.
No sms, calls or mms or emails sent or received.

I know 4 hours is a long time to continuously use the GPS but I expected more even though the screen brightness was on auto as outdoor.

Any opinions - is this normal for this battery?

***and secondly***

Anyone ever bought one of these...

and if so - does it double your usage time and are they safe/any good.

All comments appreciated folks. :-)
