Mophie Powerstation isn't 4000mah? - General Accessories

I'll try to keep this short. So my external battery started having horrible battery life. I received it as a gift in May of this year so it's not old. Now because it was a gift I don't have the receipt mophie requires for warranty claims. Therefore I decided to take it apart and see what was inside.
I found two 2000mah cells wired in series giving a total of 7.4v and 2000mah.

This is at least the third electronic product with misleading or fraudulent advertising I've gotten this year. All items from respectable manufacturers not cheap Chinese knockoffs. Makes me wonder how many more over my lifetime.

Does your Excalibur Need a Facelift?

Rakicomputers an ebay seller, is selling brand new replacement parts(T-mobile Brand)for your Excalibur. This is the complete shell casing minus the battery door, not a bad deal for $27.95 shipped to your door. This seller has 164 of these ready to go.
I thought this would be some good info considering these cases go for $80.00+ and It's not a bad future investment, I purchased my Excalibur used and the screen is the only part that flawless so I'm in need of a face lift. I just ordered mine, I posted quality results when it arrives.

Waterproof see-through case?

I'd love to be able to use my A100 in the hot tub for reading, browsing, whatever.
I see a few advertised on Amazon, but the reviews don't really address issues of things like whether the touch screen works.
Does anyone have experience with any similar products and can provide some insight?

Another cheap case

I haven't tried them, but they do look useful for the right situations.
I have seen an almost identical product on sale at the local Fry's Electronics. IIRC it's about $20 dollars.
I suppose 1-2 heavy ziplock freezer bags carefully sealed with maybe a binder clip over the zipper would do perform the same duty for less than a dollar though.

$38.99 for a 10000mah Dual Output power bank. Kidding?

i was looking around on amazon for an large capacity external battery for my Galaxy S3, and suddenly found this one:
http://www.amazon.com/RAVPower-RP-P...e=UTF8&qid=1350022245&sr=1-1&keywords=RP-PB04
Only $38.99 for an 10000mah power bank, may be the lowest price for the same capacity on Amazon.
Have 10 reviews and almost all five star. Shall i have one?
Any opinion...
No, I have no opinions. But I have Starbust liquid filled gummies and a RAVPower battery.

I have to say this price is attractive! And add $1 can get a free charge adapter!
Click in and found the price is $36.99?
Thanks for sharing this! I too, would love to get one and I think the price is good for what it can do...

[Buyer Beware] Fake Quickcover from eBay

So a couple of weeks ago I thought I'd do my mom a favor and get her a Quickcover for her N5. I ordered one from ebay (this one to be more specific: http://www.ebay.com/itm/201139288838). It's advertised as being a Genuine Official case, which turned out to be a lie. Here's the difference from a real one:
*The official case will be on the left and the fake one on the right*

If you have any questions, let me know!
Good to know. Thanks.
But i like the one with the "Nexus" mark more
it's common knowledge that ebay is filled with counterfeit products. If it comes from China, it's probably fake. But some of the stuff is actually good quality such as the Nexus 5 bumper cases.

Choetech 15600 powerbank. The best and fastest

So I was in the market for a powerbank and I got this 15600 mah powerbank. It's powerful enough to charge both my Nexus 5 and Oneplus together 3 times. That's a heck of a lot of power. It supports quick charge 2.0 so it's future proof and charges my devices at full speed. This thing is a beast haha. Here are some pictures I took.

Here is the one:
http://www.amazon.com/15600mAh-Port...ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&sr=8-1&keywords=power+bank
I found a $7 off code: 9M6S4OJW on the landing page.
'Save $7.00 when you purchase 1 or more Qualifying items offered by CHOETECH-Official. Enter code 9M6S4OJW at checkout.'
