Is anybody using the Seidio wall charger to charge the battery out of the phone?

That is a waste of money when you can get a Chinese one off Ebay for $6 shipped that works just as good been using mine since the Eris was released then on the Incredible and an EVO and multiple people charging extra batteries on that thing. It was pretty much charging a battery 18hrs every day and it's still working perfectly

Do you see a difference in the battery life when you charge it on your wall charger?
I have the Seidio wall charger for my DI and got a longer charge out of both the OEM & Seidio battery over using the charger in the phone. Is anybody else getting there results?

A huge diffrence the external charger is really the only way to give the battery a full charge even bump charging doesn't fully do it

I mean that's going to very user to user but I've never seen under 10hrs and I'v eseen as high as 30hrs out of one charge ..

I've only used my phone after charging it normally a few times but I'd say you get an extra 2-3hrs

Not a Seidio hater. The extended battery for the Incredible was very good (3500 mAh) although the very long life didn't last more than a few months, still far better than the stock battery. The extended battery the same size made some difference but wasn't worth it. Let's just say that assuming the Seidio has within 10% of its stated capacity you're talking about practically the same battery power, give or take 20-30 minutes max IMHO.

Bluetooth and WiFi are both off unless I'm using the hotspot (which, I guess is a different kind of WiFi...)

I'm getting much better time now. On a day when I do not use the hotspot or navigation, I'll be at 35-40% after 10 hours. I'm not going to try and A-B with the HTC battery for awhile. I'll let the Seidio burn in for another week and then maybe switch.

So far I'm happy. That doesn't mean that I would have been less happy with the stock battery.

Well the battery died. I charged it overnight Monday and Tuesday morning the phone was nonresponsive (it would not turn on.) Popped the factroy battery back in and she worked just fine. I tried a couple more charges, but no luck. Fortunately I bought from Amazon, so back she goes.
