Cases with Battery - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories

I was wondering if anyone had any experience with cases that had batteries in them like powerskin or mophies. I don't like extended batteries because I still like to have a case on my phone and usually you can't find one for extended batteries. Has anyone seen anything like this for the GNote?
This is the closest I've gotten, but I wish it had more protection: http://www.amazon.com/Hyperion-Battery-Rechargeable-International-Samsung/dp/B007Z1Y7T2
Although I've also found this so I might get the Hyperion battery: http://www.amazon.com/Hyperion-Exte...ernational/dp/B007R5I8KA/ref=pd_sim_sbs_cps_2

I Dont Trust Hyperion they are fake with batteries

Yeah their extended batteries are cheaply made. But that's how they can be cheaply sold. The weight is what ends up really bothering me though. I might try one of these actually

Is This A New One?

Anybody know if this battery is any good?
http://accessoryone.com/htc-evo-4g-...ith-back-door-wireless-c-831-p-1-pr-9100.html
this seems to be the same ones that have multiple sources on ebay.

The good things is that it looks like there are only USA sellers, so odds are your going to get a better product than a chinese knock off. Not a guaranteed winner, but possibly better than most. If you like a suggestion on good batteries, ive had a wonderful experience with these here http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw=ev...2200mah&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313
The galilio ones. I own about 3 and i can noticeably tell they are superior to my OEM battery and they are no extra bulk and super cheap.
These batteries look good but I was wondering about the the battery cover that is shipped with them. I have a seidio 3500 right now and the way the battery cover for it is tapered, it will still fit in my holster that I bought for the evo. I wonder if these battery covers for the 2200mah batteries will also allow it to fit in the holster.
I just wish someone would make a 1750mah or 1800mah that ACTUALLY tests at those numbers. That would be good enough for me and would fit under the OEM cover.

largest battery in otterbox commuter?

what is the largest "good" battery available for the evo? I love this form factor and do not want to make it any larger. What battery are you guys running? With and with out mods. I am currently running caluks latest and love the better battery life, but why cant we hope for more?
Im not afraid to trim a bit here or there to make a larger mah battery fit.
I have contemplated seeing if a larger battery will fit without the back and only the commuter case.
Thanks
My favorite batteries are these guys: http://cgi.ebay.com/2x2000mAh-Batte...Accessories&hash=item483dafbe5b#ht_5045wt_907
I've got a few of them, and I've bought some for my friends. Positive reviews all around. They are standard size so they fit in the phone with the existing battery door and in turn all of the regular cases. I'm sure they aren't really 2000mah but they do seem to last longer than the stock batteries.
OP, just get one of these: http://www.amazon.com/XtremeMac-IPU-ICP-11-InCharge-Portable-US/dp/B003FVRYBE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1294354173&sr=8-1
i just ordered two.

[Q] Case for Sprint 2600mah battery

Hi,
Wife loves her Evo, but hates the battery life. She really uses it, so she has to keep it on the charger. I have a Platinum (aka Seidio) 3500mah battery and love it, but she doesn't like how it makes the phone "huge". So I got her the Sprint battery. It's not much smaller, but apparently it is good enough. But she won't use the phone without a case. This is probably a good thing, because she drops it. Much more often than I like. I've been looking for a good case that will fit the battery. I've seen several posts that say that Seidio's Surface extended case will work. But I was thinking about the purple Laza case for Laza's extended battery (can't post a link. It's on Amazon). She loves purple, so this would be perfect. Does anyone know if this would work, or if there are any other cases that I should consider for her phone?
Thanks
In terms of cases your gonna be limited on what you can get . In the case of the Seidio (which I have) I had to cut the back out of a TPU case and more or less make a bumper case on my phone . Essentially you could do the same with the Sprint 2600 and its backplate . But you will still have a hump coming out of the case . The Laza case I believe only works for their backplate unless you are planning on getting that with the purple case . Like I said your options are gonna be limited . In terms of cutting a case like I mentioned before . If you take your time and measure it out very well you would almost believe it was part of the extended battery back and one piece .
Can you buy the backplate separately from the battery? I didn't see it for sale anywhere, but might have missed it. I'd be fine doing that if I could do it and if it would work with the battery. I'd also do it for my Seidio battery as well. I'd rather have one of the silicone cases than the Seidio case.
More than likely you should be able to buy the battery back by itself . I know Seidio sells their battery back as a seperate part . As for other battery manufacturers I am not sure about .

Right. It's just a question of finding one that will fit the Sprint 2600 battery. It has an oddly shaped battery cover. If I could replace the battery cover with something more common, then the world of cases would open right up...
May this help you decide
For what would be cheaper than the cost for a back elsewhere I thought why not just get a cheap battery for the price.
The 2600 battery I have is a cheap chinese version its the same size as the 3500 I got from Amazon, they fit the same back... Appears to be the same size as sprints 2600.
http://www.amazon.com/Laza-Sprint-Extended-Battery-Silicone/dp/B004LOBXZ2
The 3500 (generic, not laza) was 8$ and some change, comes with a back (exact size as lazas 3500 battery back) and fits the laza silicone case (you mentioned) that I also got (14.99) and it fits perfect, so you could use both 2600 and 3500 batteries with same back..
Those and a 6$ hdmi cable qualified me for free shipping (took about 2wks)... but all for under 30.
Backing fits case, contours and protects well, awesome battery life
after calibration. I been using for about 3 wks now.
No complaints ...it is bulky but I got big hands and it feels sturdy.
i bought my case from gorillagadgets.com check it out. pretty nice and fits the phone w/ extended battery

I have the 2600 from amazon and I wanted to get a silicone case but if a 3500 is that cheap and both batteries can fit the case I'll get the battery too and go with that!
-thanks for the heads up
I have the seidio innocase extended and it works with the 2600 battery.

Do you happen to have the link to the battery that you bought. Buying an ultra cheap battery for the back sounds like a good idea for me. I already have the 2600mah from Sprint and it's too late to bring it back. I used it for a while, and I liked it, but in the end, I opted for the Seidio 3500. So I want my wife to use the 2600 from Sprint.

this one..price fluctuates a buck or two...it's cheap but holds up well!

If ur wiling to do a bit of modification, you can fit the sprint 2600 battery inside of a ballistic case.... I have it and its a beauty, no one ever knows that theres an extended battery inside unless i pop out the cover

Mugen Extended battery - Cases?

Just purchased a mugen extended battery, but having searched there doesnt seem to be any cases available that will fit it?
Have i missed anything or is nothing available?
So everyone thats using the mugen extended battery dont have a case?
I would like a rubber case like the PDair ones if available...
Have a look here:
http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s2-international/388120-case-extended-battery.html
This is all I've been able to find so far. But I've only started looking a few minutes ago. I just got the Mugen, and I need a case that will fit it (and one I like the look of) immediately.

Opinions on this battery?

I always used this website for batteries and always they were great
this one is estimated to ship on Feb 21 just 2 days before my bday i might treat myself!
Code:
http://www.mugenbattery.com/mugen-power-extended-2000mah-battery-for-verizon-samsung-galaxy-nexus/
it says it's 2000mah how much more battery usage i can expect?
before i flashed franco kernel (which was about hour ago)
my battery would hold around 12 hours on 4.0.4 i always listen to music text and do some web browsing. Thanks guys
You get ~14% more capacity compared to the 1750 mAh battery. So don't expect too much.
Why wouldn't you get the OEM Extended battery? It's half the price and holds more charge. If you're worried about the case the difference is barely even noticeable, most cases fit with the extended battery.
I get about an hour more on average compared to stock battery, which makes a huge difference for me. It's also good having an extra battery anyway.
If you've got a Verizon version, just buy the extended battery straight from Verizon its 2100mAh and comes with a proper back cover for less $$.

Thank you, forgot to mention that...like I forgot to mention since it's OEM you don't have to worry about the build quality being too poor, like you do buying from some unknown company such as the one in the OP

The OEM extended barely makes it thicker, it keeps NFC, and it is cheaper with more capacity.
You're going to put a case on it anyways, so why do you care about thickness? lol.
if that mugen battery is not larger than stock one i can assure you that you are not getting more capacity. mugen batteries are decent as far as aftermarket ones goes but they over advertise their capacity and charge more than oem but dont take my word for it. check out this website that tested some mugen batteries actual capacity. mugens 1800mah is actually 1400 and thier 3600 extended is 2500. http://batteryboss.org/
