9600mAh / 6400mAh / 4800mAh Internal Battery

I am initiating my third project this winter season.
Purpose of this project:
The project is to successfully make a 9600mAh battery @ 3.7VDC.
Objective:
Use least amount of resources. Battery should be created easily by anyone. Budget is less than $100 USD.
Materials:
3x 3200mAh Li-Ion batteries
4x Copper conduit cables with plastic wrapping
- 2x Copper cables 5mm Width, 4-5cm Lenght.
- 2x Copper cables 1-2mm Width, 4-5cm Lenght.
1x Tin (Sn) Soldering Unit.
1x 2-3cm battery door.
Procedure:
1. As you see there are 4 compartments of power conductor on the battery (metal copper) where the battery touches the Universal pins.
2. Stack up all the batteries so that they are one over the other in same position parallely.
3. Take the copper cable and connect it to each batteries metal spot. Ofcourse the bigger compartment is going to require the 5mm wire and the other small ones will require 2mm.
4. Solder the wires tightly and they must touch all the compartments.
5. There should be a little bit of wire left in the end and that wire must touch the first battery a bit.
6. Make sure you do not use excess wire otherwise all the batteries wont fit in the battery door.
7. The first battery will clip into the Universal but now here is the modification you have to make to the other batteries.
Break off the clips on the other batteries. Front and back slip in clips. This will enable the batteries to fit in the case and probably make room for the copper wires too.
8. Now here is the problem. If you are making a 4800mAh battery stack (3200mAh + 1600mAh) then you are lucky and can custom order a battery door. For the other people making 9600mAh or 6400mAh you will have to make your own battery door probably by using molding plastic tools.
Now please keep note not to ever ever ever solder anything to the pins on the Universal power recieving wires. Otherwise you are in big trouble and probaly damaged the power supply but you can cut the solder off.
Results:
So this is the array of batteries you have just built. I will built a 5000mAh battery so this is how it will work for me. i have a 1800mAh battery that is of normal flat size and a 3200mAh battery. Both of same 3.7V ~ VDC. Therefore, we can conclude that both stacked. The wires were connected parallely and i preffered to break the clips on the 3200mAh battery since my 1800mAh is metallic. I asked Lion Battery to send me a battery door for their 4800mAh batteries and they arranged it for $10 or something and it fit my battery stack because it was approximately 1cm extended.
So first the wires were soldered on the 3200mAh and then they reached down to the 1800mAh. The 1800mAh connected independently to the pins on the Universal. The Universal is now drawing power out of both 3200mAh and 1800mAh batteries!!!!
Conclusion:
I saved $200 on a 5000mAh battery.
Good luck on making your battery stack. Try to post pictures and information if you to undertake this project and are successful.
Regards.

I will buy only if the size remains the same size as 1620mA original battery.
Anything beyond the size is bulky, considering Universal itself is already bulky.

I agree. The maximum available at flat size is 1800mAh. Single Battery. But the point of having the universal is functionality. I dont use it to talk. I use the BT headset.

nuclear
Use car battery and you solve all their own problems
.Will much long work!
Show us photo your super batteries!
If will be a photo we all shall believe that you technical genius!

It would be a Nuclear device...beware

You should realy start to think about your 4th project:
Making BAG for project N3

Guys be nice...
Nuclear any chance of some photos? Put them on Flickr etc.
What kind of usage time do you get?
V

YES, be nice... because in theory as long as you connect the batteries in PARALLEL you are not increasing the voltage, but you are increasing the capacity, thus longer battery life. As a matter of fact, you can stack as many as you want.
Now if you are connecting the batteries in SERIES, then you are going to fry (TOAST, if you prefer) your precious Universal.

Offcourse I'm joking - but actualy it will be powerfull Universal without chance to put him in .... pocket

i was just thinking of this last night, and there a thread.
anyone have any idea how to make a battery door, or what i call it a battery cover with ease? i do not own any plastic moulding tools

I find making a battery cover/door very easy personally. I did not post upon how to make a battery cover/door but after a lot of thinking i have come up with the procedure to do that too.
1. Order 2x 3200mAh batteries from ebay or anywhere you like. The batteries will include their individual covers. Note that you must order the battery with the square black door and not the aerodynamic silver door. You can also order individual battery doors from ebay by requesting the seller
2. Therefore you will be making a 6400mAh stack of battery.
3. This is where you have get to make a choice. Either to keep the batteries in one compartement or to keep the batteries in separate compartements (recommended).
4. Keeping the batteries in separate compartements helps in cooling effect and prolongs the life of the batteries because batteries emit EMF waves that could damage each other. When the batteries are kept separately they have no chance of effecting each other.
5. Also note that the batteries charge and discharge simultaneously due to charge distrubution factor of 1/2 .
6. Ok now to make the cover. First we will look at the single compartment where both batteries sit together.
- We have two covers and classify them as Cover A and B.
- Cover A will clip into the Universal directly.
- Cut out cover A's roof using a hot cutting knife (recommended to keep soft edges). Let the Cover A cool down and you may now throw away the roof of cover A.
- Cut out the base or rim of Cover B. You know the rim that sits on the Universal. The flat rim part on Cover B must not exist.
- Cover B must now look like a perfect rectangle without any edges because it will sit on Cover A and you will attach them by heating up Cover A and Cover B edges so that they both bond up. You can make this bond either by using permanent glue or moulding using a chisel heat knife.
- So now you have successfully made a 6400mAh battery door. Make sure there is enough room for the wires to pass. Good luck.
7. Now to make the separtate compartement battery holder.
- Cut out the rim of Cover B using the hot knife method.
- Make Cover B sit on Cover A exactly in the same co-ordinates.
- Mold them back and make the bond between Cover A and B so now they are Cover A-B.
- Make a hole in Cover A's roof so you can pull out the wires that are going to Battery B in cover B. Make sure that the battery is first in cover B and you solder the Cover A and B with the battery sitting in Cover B. You wont be able to take out the Battery from Cover B because now it is sitting permanently in Cover B fully SEALED! . Make sure you don't solder the Wires to Battery B before this step.
If additional space is needed or the batteries are heating up, just use a metallic 2-5mm stick to make a gap between Compartement A and B.
When i start doing this i will post pictures of the battery stack and my new battery door.
Good luck in making your battery door.

By parallel battery stacking i mean that 1 wire goes through all the batteries touching each batteries metal compartment, since Universal batteries have 4 of these compartements we going to have 4 wires touching each of those metal parts. All the 4 wires must run parallely without touching each other. And that is why we cover them with plastic.
Now if I am correct a series connection is where all batteries connect directly to the Universal, which will fry the universal due to excessive voltage input around 10-12Volts. When the batteries connect all in line then its a parallel and voltage input does not change. Its only the capacity that changes. But you must make sure a wire is running directly to the universal and all the other batteries are connected to that wire. Its like a branching except the main branch connects to the Universal and all the sub branches are the batteries.
I will post pictures when i get home of what i am looking for. It seems words arent enough. Pictures Pictures Pictures!! and Diagrams. I know you all want to see the blueprints. Thats why when i go home today i will make the blueprints in autocad or by hand and upload pictures here. I will also show you what series connections are and how you can fry the battery/Universal if a wrong connection is made.
I personally wont be attempting this project until i make a good cover for the battery. I will ask those 4800mAh battery sellers to give me a cover without the battery for $5-$20. Dont want the 4800mAh battery from those sellers $200 .
Actually now that i think about it i would like to stick with 1800mAh only because its so flat with the universal and not at all bulky. But i dont care about the bulk because i never use the phone to call. Like i never hold it to my ear. Always use a BT headset. This bulk battery is seriously going to be heavy.
Truly I would advice you all to stay with the 1600-1800mAh battery until a new battery is released of the same size with higher capacity.
Okay if you guys really want me to attempt this project I will. But I wont be using that huge stack. Also if someone could help me I would really appreciate it. Afterall I am trying to help you guys too. I dont want you guys spending so much money on something thats so cheap. You guys already spent a lot of money on the Universal and I suggest you dont get cheated by this battery thing. Thats why I didnt have any pictures. But i can atleast provide blueprints. I am doing all this for you guys and not personally for myself. I could have done this project at home and never let any of you know. But there are some days when I am struck and I come looking for help on the internet and i get that help. Thats why I would also be a part of that help and help other people with all I have to offer. So please dont get mad if i dont have pictures or my setup does not work. I am trying my best.

Parallel Battery Stacking
My first picture of how parallel stacking should look like. This is one of the blueprints i post. Make sure your wires are minimal. Very small wires otherwise the batteries wont fit in there. Even the cover must be able to support the wires. If you are making a twin compartment battery case, then better make holes in the partition for the passage of the wires. I will post a blueprint for that too, the cover that is. The key to success in this project is to minimize wires as much as possible.
Also good news! A recent technology has been invented that lets you charge your electronics on wireless!. Plug in the adapter into the wall and there you go. You have wireless charging. I saw this news somewhere I dont remember exactly but I know it was a valid news source.

As you make the wires thinner, they will get hotter/the resistance of them will go up, causing more power consumption

As has been asked before for your claims, links, sources... come on man, we can't take your word for everything.

Another alternative ... although not as much fun as making one
I had the same problem of not having enough battery capacity, especially since the original battery starting going bad (it would shut down at about 50% charge, lasting only 30-60 minutes). So I had the choice of getting the original battery for about $25 with shipping or getting the 3150mAh Li-ion Battery for $35 with shipping. I got the 3150mAh about a month ago and have been very pleased with it. It easily lasts 4 hours under full load and I could go a whole working day under normal use ... amazing !!! Also, it actually feels better holding onto the device, since it's easier to grab onto with the indents on either end of the cover. It's wonderful, not having to worry about carrying around my charger everywhere. I ended up getting it from www.Gizmos2Go.com (http://www.gizmos2go.com/xcart/search.php?mode=search). They were out of stock when I ordered it, but were very nice about keeping me up to date on the progress. Although, it's available elsewhere, so shop for the best price ... http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=Li-Ion+battery+High+Capacity+3150+jasjar.
Another alternative I use is to use a mini-USB "batter extender" that works with 4AA batteries. It's worked well with the Universal with Li-Ion batteries. Here's a link to one of these types of chargers ... http://www.pocketpctechs.com/main~u...ries-power+accessories~item~USB-BATADPT01.htm.
I know these aren't nearly as much fun as making one yourself, but they both have worked well for me. Anyways, I hope this helps someone make a decision.

Hey thanks ollie, this helps a lot. I really like external power, 4AA batteries are nice. I can use my AA 2700mAh battery and 4 of them will make the Universal last a long time. I really like my 1800mAh battery and with this external power idea i can use my universal for a long time. I use my universal in my car, office and work. I am mostly using my headset so make/answer calls. So I could stick to the 1800mAh and put my universal in a leather case and belt clip and carry it around. While i want to play games or chat on msn i can hook up the external AA batteries and the batteries will be in my pocket while i am using the universal.
Yes thats the one and last thing i want to know. If the cable is long enough to hide the AA external batteries... atleast 60-100cm

Pics
Nuclear,
Your project really intrigued me. Do you have any pictures of your work in progress or finished product? Thanks.

I have a Sino battery from eBay, insanely cheap (something like £16 shipped) with the bulgy cover. Works brilliantly.
I'm amazed by some of the claims of poor battery life. I make very little use of my device, but I also seem to get 4 days+ of standby/occasional use with this battery installed! As in, take it on holiday, show it to people, make a couple of calls, play a couple of games, bit of WiFi in the pub - that sort of thing - and it had 39% charge after four days.

Cameron Sino Extended Battery - Review

Thought I would write a quick review of the extended battery I just bought.
Background
I was rather unhappy with my original battery as were most people! It only lasted me a day and as my job requires me to be out and about a lot, plus to call people often, I thought something more robust would be better. My solution = The Cameron Sino 2600mAH Battery!
Initial Impressions
The battery is twice the size of stock. The battery cover did not close on my phone. Total size isnt too bad. It nearly doubles the phone thickness, but when I come onto the testing section later this is a worthwhile sacrifice.
Cover Fit
The cover didnt fit so I decided to buy a 32gb micro sd card (which works fine), and to super glue the cover on. I figured that using a scalpel I could remove the back (I tested and it works fine) if ever required. Hopefully I wont need to access it ever, or until I upgrade in 18 months and decide to sell it.
Performance
After charging to 100%, running down to 0% 3 times, I have now had the phone on for 5 days and it's current charge level is 10%. As you can see this is awesome. My settings:
Helix Launcher
Wifi On about an hour a day
Light phone calls (around 5 hours)
Light texting - 20 odd a day
3g Off
GPS off
I imagine in real life conditions 3 days moderate use would be obtainable.
Conclusion
Overall I am very very happy with this battery. It really brings this phone into the "worthwhile for daily use" category (it should have been here originally ofcourse). Hopefully will be able to use the standard UI rather than Helix when 2.1 comes out. Damn app power leaks.
Rating: 4/5 (Battery door a poor fit)
Edit: Forgot to mention at £16.99 delivered (amazon.co.uk), you can hardly go wrong!!!

Could you post a pic of your phone now please?

Unfortunately my only camera is my phone...... sorry. Maybe someone else can!?

Wow! I assume you like your phone carrier since it is difficult now to remove the sim card.

Well my carrier (Three) used to be terrible. However they appear to have upgraded their cell towers and I now have full signal most places that my friends dont! So yeah I like my carrier!

Why dont you buy the extra thick covers that are all over ebay so that you dont have to glue anything?
Edit: My bad they arent on ebay, but there is a thread in the accessories forum, I'm sure of it.

theres a couple of posts and reviews in a thread on here already and myself and several others paid just £12.99 free postage from ebay

Yeah I rarely buy off ebay - had a lot of problems with sellers before (might just be my luck ). I saw the other reviews, and just wanted to do my own hehe.

any chance to get a pic of your phone? how it looks with the glued cover?

If i ma not wrong, that battery comes with a cover for X10 right? Are u saying that that cover that they provide does not fit properly?

Mine fits properly. You just have to force the sides of the cover into place and thats it. Battery life is much better than the oem one and has a very noticeable difference.

ordered one from http://www.megacapacity.com/26985.html . Lets see how it goes

Just updating this thread for potential cameron sino battery buyers. I got the package 4 days ago. I removed my stock battery, popped this battery in, used the back cover that was provided by them. The phone became almost twice the depth thanx to the battery.
Then the issues started. Even though the green light used to come on when connected to the mains, the phone never used to start. Initially i thought the charge is low, so left it overnight, but then the next morning i saw tht I still had the same issue. After fidgeting with it for sometime, i noticed that there is a 1(or 0.5) mm gap between the battery and contacts because of which the x10 did not start. I used a thin plastic sheet(amost like a sheet of paper) to hold the battery up against the contact and it worked fine. Right now the problem is that if i shake the phone a bit vigorously, it gets disconnected because of the shorter battery.
But i want to see how the battery lasts so am using it for now. It all boils down to the time i have to wait till next charge. If it really gives around 70% more time (as claimed by many in other forums) i will use it despite the bulkiness and the smaller battery issues. Thanx for reading!!!

so this comes with a case as well for £12.99?

Thanks for this info! I was having the same issue with this battery. I thought I was having a driver issue for extended batteries but after reading your post, I confirmed that it wasnt the case. Fixed the problem but with a different approach.
What I did was I soldered a small amount of lead onto the contacts on the battery (careful enough not to short the contacts) so that it would give better contact on pins of the x10.. I know the process seems a little bit drastic but it works! I can't make the phone shutdown even when I shook the hell out of this phone.

largest battery for satnav motorbike use

hi all i have ordered one of these
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/390430333355?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
to use on my motorbike and i now want a huge or multiple batteries so that i can use copilot to navigate the uk with, i dont want to spend huge amounts but also dont want something that is crap and will damage my phone,
so please can someone advice me of big Mah batteries that will last longer than the standard and also be save to use without damaging my phone like some of the super cheep ebay ports will
thankyou

anyone could you advise me on a battery please

I think you might be better off with a power point to continuously charge it. They're just as cheap, even from the likes of Maplins, and easy to install.
I gave up depending on batteries on my bike years ago, if you have several they're fine for a day or two so long as you don't mind having to stop and change them out at random times, but if you're on an extended trip it can sometimes get tricky to find somewhere to recharge at night especially when out foreign or say camping.

the waterproof case i got only just fits the note so no room to plug a cable in, to bad as this would have been a great idea

I've got an Aquabox which is pretty much the same as yours and had the same problem, so I just drilled a hole in the thing
It's mounted to the bars and most of the rain is deflected by the screen anyway so not much actually gets to hit it, and it's survived since Christmas right on the Atlantic coast through lots of the wet stuff

you could also get something like this
Them Aquaboxes look alright ... might have to get one of them myself

External Battery Power Pack

So I just purchased this power pack: Amazon Link
Price: $19.99
I've tried it all, from carrying spare batteries to the power packs that you plug directly into your micro-USB on your phone. And I think eventually I found exactly what I needed. And for cheap too.
This thing is listed at 5000mAH...dont know how accurate it is, but compared to the other ones listed on the market (name brand ones are around $50-60), I don't really care if it was like 4000mAH.
If you're on airplanes / trips alot, let me tell you that this is ALOT more convenient than carrying around a spare battery, waiting for your phone to die, and then turning it off, taking off the case and swapping it out. And you don't have to worry about getting a third party battery that holds a crappy charge, you get to use your OEM battery for everything. Not only that, but this thing comes with TWO USB ports, so you can charge yours and a friends. Even if they have an iphone or something.
It's the only thing that ensures you can keep using your devices for hours and hours without having to worry about running out or having to stop what you're doing to make a battery swap or something.

Good find. I will be ordering one n trying it out. Thanks!!

I bought one of those probably a year ago just thinking it would be a handy thing to have & I've never used it once LOL

be sure to check out the new trent offerings. Absolutely excellent.

haha yeah like i said it depends on your situation. I always wanted something like this but couldn't justify spending $60 dollars. But considering spare batteries are $10. And you're getting enough juice to charge your phone 2.5 times over, i think a $20 price point sounds amazing. Even if you will only use it 3 times a year when you travel.
...its kind of like the tablet dilemma most people have. Most people don't use tablets enough to justify $500. But make a $200 tablet (hello nexus), and all of a sudden you wouldn't mind having it even if it sits on your end table most of the time and you have it when you want it.

Nitro HD for sale with EXTRAS!!! $85 Bundle Deal!

Hey everyone, I just recently switched over to a different device and am interested in selling my Nitro. I was planning on posting it to eBay/Craig's List but figured I'd try here first to keep it in the community of XDA members first since it is currently rooted and running the latest CM11 nightlies. I am in the US (New Jersey) and willing to ship within the 48 contiguous states ONLY for anyone seriously interested.
*MAJOR SIDENOTE*
The phone works fine aside from the micro usb port which is iffy (works when it wants to or after some tinkering with it). However, my workaround for this issue has been using Airdroid for wireless file transfer and syncing my devices to my cloud storage (if you have an SD adapter or multi card reader they work fine too, you'll just have to either unmount the micro SD card or power the device off and take it out first). As far as the charging goes since its iffy at times using a cable, I purchased the Hyperion 1900 mAh AND 3800 mAh batteries which I will throw into the deal of course.
With this configuration of wireless data transfer and swapping batteries (having an extra in my pocket was always nice, especially for long trips or days of heavy usage) I've had no other problems/complaints with the device.
As far as the physical condition of the phone goes there are two small cracks (one on the top left corner, one on the left side of the screen on the bezel...no damage on the screen itself) and a few dings around the edges (honestly I think I've only dropped the phone "naked" a total of 3 times since it was released)
If you are SERIOUSLY interested in this deal you will be getting:
- LG Nitro HD (P930) with OEM battery and back cover
- Hyperion 1900 mAh battery
- Hyperion 3800 mAh extended battery with back cover
- Hyperion external battery charger
- 16GB SanDisk Ultra Class 10 micro sdhc card (optimized for android devices for use with the SanDisk memory zone app)
Any SERIOUS inquiries please PM me, I will be accepting PayPal for payment and have everything shipped standard immediately (extra charge if you want over night or any other shipping option). I will also provide serious inquires with pictures showing the damage on the phone and all accessories.
I am looking to sell everything together for $85, shipping included. I've taken into consideration the damage and the value of the extra batteries and memory card alone are about $45 so the phone itself is only $40 and you will see it's well worth the deal when I send you pics!
PLEASE SERIOUS INQUIRIES PM ME ONLY!!!
Thanks, it's been fun being part of the Nitro community here on the XDA forums, I'd like to pass the fun on to someone else now
