Which one did you get?

I have the Motorola one. My battery life has close to doubled. Plus I was able to use my original battery door with it. Which means I am able to use the same case. Although not everyone has had the same experience with the oem battery door working.

Many people have reported problems with their screen from using the stock door with the extended battery so just be careful doing so. Hopefully it works good for you! I also have the motor extended battery and my battery life has significantly increased by several hours a day.

I really like my Seidio 2600, I just couldn't get by on the stock battery. The replacement door does not really affect anything for me either.

I'm gonna have to risk that...I'm in an Otterbox. What exactly is the model# of the Moto extended battery?
Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk

I really don't see why anybody is even bothering with the stock battery door with the EB??? The "proper" door is 1mm. Lol, come on. 1mm for 20 hours between charges is well worth it in my opinion.

I have the Moto extended battery and love it. I bought it before a business trip thinking I'd swap over mid flight to the stock battery when I ran it down. I havent swapped back to the stock battery since. I unplug from the charger at 6:30a on day 1. I usually plug back into the charger around 10p on day 2 unless we're going out in which case I'll charge the phone around 5p on day 2.

i can confirm accounts of this happening to people, just saying

The extended battery is great only adds a little bit of thickness with new door. I tried using stock door but it caused problems with my screen.

I just received the otterbox defender(vzw rugged) and the moto eb today. Using the eb door with the otterbox just fine. But because I have to mod everything, I did shave just a little off the inside of the otterbox. Fits like a glove. Oh and the eb is the best. Love it.

Just got an extended battery, any tips?

I seen somewhere tips for calibrating an extended battery, I was wondering if I could get some advice. Also I'm running Synergy RC2 GOD MODE.

I had the extended for awhile i couldn't get over the bulk of it .
Have a hero and a TP2 so i just keep 2 charged batterys at a time and switch
I found the cheap ones work just as-well as the 60 dollar ones at best buy aslong as you condition them

I only paid $13 for this battery. I haven't even seen it's full potential yet. I'm a bit worried cause now I cannot use a case for it..but gives me more reason to try going red with it. Anyway, I was switching between 3 batteries and it wore out
My back. It was convenient yet annoying. So these batteries just need some conditioning?

I got mine for 8 dollars on Amazon lasted 2 days all i would do is calibrate at 100% completely drain then repeat for the first few charge cycles.
Worked like a charm just couldn't get over the girth

Hmm I see. I can get used to it, I just cannot have it in my pocket at work anymore. And its no longer protected so it is risky but I needed a change since I'm not getting the 3D right now lol

Battery help

If a Chinese extended battery swells a little in the middle but works fine should I be considered about the battery burning up
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

If a battery is swelling, you should be very concerned, and stop using it immediately. It could explode at any time and the acid inside could seriously burn you or others.

K thanks
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

Even if it doesn't explode, it could crack and cook your phone. Dispose asap!

The best one would probably be a stock one made by htc.

I used a generic branded 3500mAh battery bought on Amazon.com from a seller called Quickshippers. It works out wonderful and is only a fraction of the cost of the expensive Seidio ones.
The only reason I went back to stock is because I'm getting fantastic battery life with evodeck. And I'm usually just plugged in and charging while at work. I missed the sheer thinness of the stock battery.

How long does a extended battery take to fully charge
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

3500 BATTERY takes about 6 to 8 hours to charge. But if u dont use an SBC kernel, it will never fully charge.
I am trying this new kernel release from HTC now, and it looks promising, but only on second day. Too early to see if it actually fully charges 3500s

Seidio Slim
The Seidio Slim battery is slightly better according to some reviews I have read, but then again I don't believe I have read enough of them to lead me to believe that is better than just buying the Stock from HTC which is more durable. Just a thought not a proven fact.

Selling Seidio 3500mAh batteries + 1 cover

Sold my EVO to upgrade to the 3D, and of course the extended batteries aren't compatible with the new phone. Looking to sell these, thought I'd check on here before going to eBay or anything else.
I have two 3500mAh batteries, official Seidio brand. I also have one back cover. Only used one battery for a few months, the other one was used maybe once or twice at best. So essentially one is slightly used and the other is practically new.
Obviously selling these all at once would be ideal. But I'll sell just one battery too. I'll take PayPal and I can ship them (unless you'd want to pick up in Chicago). Let me know if you're interested!

Oh fyi the 3vo is a great phone but also a battery hog. You will want extended batteries for it. I bought one for my gf and even tweaked out I could get no more than 12 he's of normal use between charges.

Oh trust me I am very aware... Unplugged my phone an hour or two ago and I've already lost 20% (and I wasn't even using it). My plan is to sell these and buy new ones compatible with the 3vo.

I'll pretty much take any reasonable offer. For reference, they go for ~$50 each on eBay right now. $80 shipped for the lot?

Extended batteries are nice, but they add a lot of bulk to your phone. I switched to my stock battery because having a phone that doesn't feel like a heavy brick is so much nicer.

If only it was possible to get that kind of battery life without turning the phone into a humpback whale.

Just to let you know,
the chinese makers of many batteries like to lie about the MaH ratings - it's easy to tell if you weigh them. Also I've seen them set it up so that power depletes slowly for the first 100-60% and then rapidily drop within seconds when the power is running out.
I recommend looking at reviews from phones in general and find a maker that isn't a scammer - one that takes pride in their name and quality. There are plenty now and they're about the same price if you buy direct from china. I thought a few times about selling them but then I relised that people are too dumb and just look at the price so I couldn't be bothered. There are some countries where it's not even possible to buy a decent replacement battery - Latin America and Spain for example.

Exactly. These make it hard to put the phone in your pocket.

IMHO I'd rather carry around a spare Samsung Extended battery with me and just swap it in. Saves a lot of money. I got mine on Amazon for like $10. Plus I can use any case with it.
