Best cheap battery? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I'm looking for the best cheap battery, and possibly a charger for it. Maybe something with more power than the OEM one, and something that either comes with a back cover or one that doesn't add bulk.
I've thought about this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0069RQMWS/ref=redir_mdp_mobile but I don't really want the bulk. Any suggestions? And any feedback on the battery I linked to?
*edit* I have the white device. So if it's bulky and come with a back cover, I would prefer a white back cover.

I'm not necessarily meaning it that way. I'm meaning the best at a decent price.

I got the andida 2300mah, there is a thread about it in this section. I paid $9 and its working well for me. Does not add bulk.

3800 mah? do you think it is legit?
Im using the hyperion battery from amazon. And so far so good,
I'm using qcell batteries, there supposed to be 2300mah I think they are 2100 tho because they last as long as stock batteries and you get 2 for 25$ on Amazon I really recommend them

I saw a 4000mah battery on amazon for $16 and was tempted to get it, but just bought the flip cover for my phone so decided against it.
they don't have nfc either so, that's another downer.

a lot of the reviews on amazon say they average around 36 hrs on a single charge with average use.
just ordered this http://www.amazon.com/QCell-Extende...mobile/dp/B0074290B2/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top was able to get 2 days with the stock battery so hoping for 4 days with the extended battery
I wish i could just get the hyperion back cover without the battery because it looks like it will be better looking than the qcell back cover

Got it off Ebay for $20. After I bought it I saw a package deal on there that comes with a ton of accessories for $25.

Galaxy s3 with 4200mah Hyperion NFC battery/Tpu case (PICS)

So today my Hyperion battery with NFC came in the mail and I have to tell you I'm quite excited to see how it performs with the battery being so big I was afraid that it would be to thick but I have to say it feels great in the hand has a more premium feel to it adds a little weight to the phone also I would say I'm a very heavy user so this battery should do me while I purchased the whole set up on amazon for about $30 shipped . Now for some pictures

Unless they use some kind of new technology lol.
The cover and the battery sit pretty much flush now.
Yeah and they're never going to be putting new technology into a now "old" phone. I can almost guarantee that it will be larger but i doubt it will look anything close to the size of the Hyperion 4200.
Hooooly crap, this would be awesome!

Yeh, way too big, I bought a cheap asian 4300mah battery for $9 and it was just to chunky, now I'm back to stock battery.
3000 mAh sounds great, pushes us into razr maxx territory. Hope it's not as thick as the 4000 mAh batteries

It would be great if it fit flush

You know on Amazon these cases are cheaper. There is a thread in the accessories section with links and people discussing this case.
I bought mine for $25.00 off amazon with free 2 day shipping. Check it out.

Everything is cheaper on Amazon, you can buy toilet paper for cheap on that site lol. But ya that case seems over rated. Just a name brand. Though, I'd be all over a Nike case, haha.

The case is not at all overrated. Best case I've ever owned. Feels more secure than my seidio active case and adds less thickness. Good snug fit too.

Amazon and newegg are my go to places to shop online.
Anyway regarding the case I don't think it's overrated. It's really nice and has a unique aggressive design. It has a nice wow factor. When people see it for the first time they almost fall in love with it.
In terms of protection: if there is a bar with no protection, mid level protection and maximum protection, this case would be in mid level.
I recommend it to those ppl who don't drop their phone's too often. It doesn't add much bulk at all and still looks sleek and awesome.
If you tend to drop your phone a lot then move to the otterbox/ballistic level of cases.
