Just the title is a mouth full haha. I bought a powermat from a buddy without realizing how they work. I found that i can Wireless Charging Inductive Battery Cover from vzw and still use the powermat. But then i would have to trade in my extended battery. I searched fro quite some time and found nothing anyone know where to find a Wireless Charging Inductive extended Battery Cover for the vzw extended battery?? I really can't tell what would be better charging wirelessly or keeping my extended battery haha ahhh decisions decisions...
found a solution also a solution for anyone who wants an extended battery but wants a case or doesn't want the bulky back. Sedio makes a 1750 extended battery that is the same size as the original battery and CHICHITEC makes a 1900 extended battery that is the same size as the oem battery.

I was reading some reviews on the CHICHITEC 1900 apparently they make the same battery for like 9 different phones and it leaves a gap, it works but i dont trust it. If you want to snag one its on amazon pretty cheap to its 39.99 for 2 batteries and a wall dock to charge one battery and a usb to charge the phone. the sedio you can find on htcdepot. I also read about the mugen 1800mah, but i could only find it on ebay within a few minutes of searching. I also heard it wasnt to great.. Ahh decisions decisions haha..
Yeah, I'd like to get a stronger battery but I like my otterbox too much to give it up for an extended battery. So if I can get an extended battery the same size, I'd be all over that.

Whats the real benefit of a power mat? Yeah it charges wirelessly, but doesn't it have to lay on the mat? If you pick up your phone to use it, it stops charging right? Doesn't this make the cable superior because you can still use it while it's charging without messing with the powermat?
pretty sure the battery door for inductive charging is bulkier than a normal

well, i posted in another thread but basically i have the seidio 1600mah battery and there's practically no difference in that compared to the stock 1500 battery. that being the case, i highly doubt the 1750 is going to be much of a difference either.
then again, i am a heavy user and can kill my seidio 1600 in just over 2 hours of solid activity.
I post the same question in another forum but I guess nobody haven't try it yet....
I was wondering about this one, or the mytouch 1650. Can people please enlighten us?
From the research I did before buying the VZW extended battery the actual life of the Seidio batteries appears to be less than the stock battery, regardless of the claims.
That being said I do own a Seidio battery but have not noticed an increase in battery life.
My roomate just got this battery so I can ask her if she is noticing a difference. I personally just bought another stock battery and swap out when they die. I can usually go through the whole day if I switch 4g off when I am not using it.
I did however, buy the Seidio battery charger which works great with the stock batteries.

This is what I just did. Got my spare stock battery in the mail today and I plan on swapping the batteries when the other dies and then using the seidio wall charger to keep them both juiced.

not sure how great it is, and i considered buying it for myself, but i am semi-content with my battery life. 3800 mAh. only one, so have at it.

Only problem is itll make our phones so much more thicker....jus by the looks of the back cover
Ugly... i'll rather get used to my stock batteries life and tweak a little, before i make this device thicker and ugly.
I just picked up 2 of the 1900 mah batteries with the same generic label off of amazon for $20 and a Anker slim battery charger for $10. The batteries last as long as the oem battery with the Nitro.
I thought about getting one 3800 mah pack but didn't. It would of made my nice case useless and not to mention the extra thickness and weight. Changing batteries is a breeze on this phone.

Welcome.
For some time, I looking to buy extended battery, because the stock battery works for me too short.
Already considering increased battery 2000 mAh Samsung, but that does not give too much more than stock.
The second idea was the Seidio 3800 battery, but this expense is getting a bit too big.
And the third idea is to External Battery Case.
Cost is much better than the Seidio, and if I'm counting (2200 mAh Extended Battery + 1750 stock battery) it even gives you more energy.
Can anyone use it already?
How is it exercised?
It seems to me to work like as a charger permanently connected, so it is not an additional battery, but charger, which is non-stop charge the battery.
Do not destroy / reduce battery life?
And did this significantly increases the size of the phone?
Is it possible to choose the cover?
As for the Seidio, a little do not succeed in choosing the right kit.
The manufacturer's website there are several, and I myself do not really know what they are different.
I need one that will enable me to mount the 3800 mah battery and attach the phone to your belt.
Thank you
I have had sedeio extended batteries before and they where great. I have also has a charger case it was powerskin brand but I must say it sucked. The charger case I had made my phone really hot. I'm planning on buying the extended battery and convert case since I need battery life and protection. And I believe it comes with a belt hook

Care to share where you got it?
IMO with the added bulk I'll just stick with my extended battery and have 4200mah in the phone.

I have always heard these will actually output less than that as it takes its charge and moves it to another battery. -Cannot transfer from 1 battery to another 100%
$45? ...How about $22 shipped

FYI, most of these external battery setups do not recommend charging the external battery while it's on the phone.
Wouldn't touch this with a 10 foot pole. This is similar with a crappy cover put on it.

Maybe the OP can vouch for the one he has, but I'd be hesitant. I went with the Qcell 4200 extended battery myself.

Yes, after testing was done, it was found that not only is the 4200 hyperion battery (and case) smaller than these, and cheaper, but they have 4200 MAH while these equate to considerably less... depending on when you switch on the external batt case. There is a point that battery can't drop any lower when charging another battery, and you loose some just in the transfer anyway.
the only advantage of this is that you can easily take the phone out and go caseless, for less bulk. but now you are caseless, unless you always carry an extra case around with you.
For me, the hyperion (being smaller than this, cheaper, and more power) was the way to go. and if I wanted to keep slim, but was going camping or something, I would bring an external USB pack (heck i even made a couple: google minyboost).
but hey, if you like it, OP, each to their own.

Kickstand is sturdy enough to watch screen. But If you touch screen, phone falls.

Trust me, Hyperion Battery isn't more powerful than this. The real 4300 mah battery is Mugen Power batteries. And The Mugen Power Batteries is $99. So Hyperion isn't a good battery. If you think 4300mah battery better than this, you should buy Mugen Power batteries.

No need to hate, just because you got less, and paid more.
Well, then the samsung OEM battery must suck too... because i am getting over twice the on time with my hyperion battery. Over 1 1/2 days, with HEAVY use (over 8 hours of screen time, plus 3 hours of bluetooth, and GPS). Hyperion have been making GOOD quality batteries for years (they used to make them for RC cars, now they do Cell phones too) just because Mugen overcharges, does not make others of lesser quality. Also, hyperion has some of the best customer service i have ever dealt with.
perhaps you should research before you make unfounded claims.
I didn't say bad things to your battery. I'm sure Hyperion batteries good too. But my case isn't bad.
your case may work, he was just saying that you will not get the full charge to convert over as i had said, plus you now have no case for your phone unless you leave it in that 24/7 or carry one around. MUCH simpler (and bigger ACTUAL AVAILABLE battery life) for cheaper with the extended battery. -plus they have 2 different types of cases for the extended battery!
I got wife and I each a 4200mah NFC capable battery and TWO backs for each of us (QCell comes with 1 blue and 1 white back per battery) and TPU cases for them for $5 more each! -and QCell offers a discount for 2+ items!
Hey, as long as you like it, more power to you!

I haven't charged fully yet. But in the morning My phones battery was at %3. I attached case to my phone. Case's battery was at %75. (3 Led was glowing. Case have 4 Led) And I used my phone for 6 hours. (And heavy usage) And case have still one led. So i think its good.
(Sorry for my bad English. Hope you can understand )
I tried googling, but to no avail. Does anyone know of an Extended Battery Kit for the Active?
I've yet to see one because I doubt anyone (meaning a company) will be able to create one that retains the water-resistant capability of the GS4A. Your best bet may be the Mugen 2750 mAh battery for the GS4 which appears to be the highest capacity that still retains the stock battery size. That's pretty much the best and only option for any "extended" battery runtime.
Oh, and if you see anything on eBay or wherever that claims higher than the Mugen at 2750 mAh run from 'em 'cause they're BS as always.
Extended battery
Its not even available on Amazon....waiting for Anker to launch one...
A little pricey, and not sure of the actual specs, but here is one I found on Ebay:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-3700mAh..._Cell_Phone_PDA_Batteries&hash=item338648e7ab
I just did a quick glance. You can look around more if you please.
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trk...ery&_nkw=S4+active+battery&_sacat=0&_from=R40
I wouldn't trust that any further than I could throw it.
If Mugen can't get 3700mAh into a standard size GS4/GS4A battery, ain't nobody else going to be able to do it either, that's my position. Mugen makes a 2750mAh as I noted above and that's pretty much the best we're going to get for the GS4A. That so-called 3700mAh model, nah, I don't believe that capacity for a single moment.
If someone wants to take a chance on it, however, more power to you (pun very much intended).
For us GS4A owners, the Anker or Hyperion dual battery (meaning you get 2 of 'em) and charger setup is probably going to be the best for 'extended' battery life most likely. I'm still considering that myself but I've got 3 batteries already (one Samsung official that's a few weeks old and 2 cheap Chinese counterfeit ones without NFC capability).
Just buy a new baterry
Zero Lemon 3000 for I9295
I tried Zero Lemon 3000 for I9295 (Galaxy Active), but it too sick for this model.
Even when i removed paper from battery it looks like no 100% feet.
You won't retain your water resistance, but I've used the ZeroLemon 7500mah in my S4 Active and wrapped electrical tape around it to keep it in place.
Not the prettiest looking, but the battery life is out of this world.
I bought the S4 Active for the LCD screen anyways, not for the water protection.
