Mugen Power batteries in early 2011?

According to a rep I emailed, Mugen Power is making extended life batteries for our battery eating HTC Glacier that should be released sometime early 2011. For those who don't know Mugen Power, they have a reputation for making extended life batteries for every popular smart phone on the market.
Typically they'll make 2 different batteries for each phone, one that aims to fit like a stock with an added 400 or so mah, the second tends to require a custom backing and can often be double the stock mah.
Honestly? I can't wait. ^.^

In the tests I see Mugen did absolutely terrible. In my experience they *can* make good batteries, but have terrible Q.C. The 1st batt I received for my N900 only lasted about half an hour when fully charged. The second lasted over two days on a charge, when stock couldn't even last one.
They seem to be very much a "luck of the draw" kind of company.

posted this in the seido innocell thread as well:
dunno where i saw it (somewhere here on xda prolly N1 forum) but some guys put every aftermarket battery for MANY phones up against HTC's stock batteries the astounding results:
NO aftermarket battery from ANY mfg. has EVER beaten HTC's stock battery...
(this is referring to batteries that fit in stock battery enclosure)

I disagree fella, I myself can verify that Mugen power LiIon battery is superior comparing mAh to mAh against stock HTC batteries. I mean its not just BS they do have respected branch in the market when it comes to manufacturing batteries which is durable and long lasting which is tested by many. But for it to work you have to completely discharge it few times I normally do it for 2-3days before actual use for optical performance.

Okay so this morning after I replaced the Mugen battery with stock battery I fully charged it and took this screenshot.

Now keep in mind the stock battery is 1230 mAh and the Mugen power stock size battery was 1300 mAh. So the only difference here was 70+ extra mAh yet after extended test and usage I can respectfully say I got 3-4hours extra with Mugen than the stock size which is alot when you compare the batteries and its only 70 mAh extra which is nothing.
Now keep in mind from those SS the TBattery 0.60 does not verify the actual full mAh as its preset to the max of stock battery which is bug in the program. At the beginning to me it did seem the stock battery was superior as time went on and after many full discharges, Mugen power battery come on top.

It's here

Both battery's are listed but aren't shipping till Feb. 18th. They could be manufacturing them. 1650mah is the normal sized one. I think I will get that one.

Wait for sometimes as 1650mAh is selling for $47 ATM which is a lot considering mAhs per dollar count, also they are out of stock. Trust me guy I am pro mugen fella as you can see my SS few post above, ill wait till it hits 30s.

"sprint" oem 3500 bat w/door?

i just bought the following for like $25 bucks.. any thoughts?

Well ill find out with you, I bought one to. :-o
Sent from my rooted EVO using tapatalk!

I mean, its a measly $25... couldn't find any proof this is a genuine sprint oem or not... also picked up a HTC incredible 1800Mah for $6.
Sent from my EVO (iPhone Slayer) via XDA App

Nice find. Got my Platinum 3500mAh for $21 shipped
Found it at amazon for $49. There is one review.
http://www.amazon.com/EXTENDED-HTC-Supersonic-T-Mobile-35H00124-12M/dp/B004OTNHTO

I don't want to be a pooper, but the battery in that Image looks like the stock evo battery which is 1500mah.
I also don't think sprint sells an OEM 3500 mah battery, they do have an extended 2200mah, and even that is larger and comes with a door. Also I've NEVER seen a 3500mah that small.

The Sprint OEM batteries are black with a white label, not red. So it definitely is not a sprint/htc oem battery. They also don't have any 3500 mah batteries for any phone that I could find.
Checked HTC, and they also only sell the 1500mah battery. They don't have any others at all.
Not going to say your not getting an actual 3500 mah battery, but I will say for certain that your not getting an OEM sprint or HTC battery.

Yeah i dont think this is real either, Sprint already has a extended battery and htc does not sell any extended batteries , if they did it would show up in HTC's online store.

I did a google search for the model number in the Amazon listing (BTE6300, BTE6300B, 35H00124-12M). That battery is only rated for 2150 mAh.

When I get this battery, is there a way I can charge and take a multimeter or something to test it?
Sent from my EVO (iPhone Slayer) via XDA App

The stock battery that came with my original Evo was red. HTC makes red batteries. Not to say that this battery is legit, though...

It's not OEM, there is no OEM 3500 mah battery. Here it is from a different seller, same battery. Most of these "3500" mah batteris are the same battery just with different wrappings.
http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Acesoft-350...ccessories&hash=item336560a609#ht_2595wt_1141

This should probably be reported, since they are trying to sell it as Sprint OEM, and it doesn't seem likely that it is. Or at least tell the seller to remove those words from the listing.

It's fake, htc doesn't make a 3500.

you would have to charge it full and for lack of better eletronics experience. You would need to use a resistor that would pull the mAh of the battery.
take for instance the 3500 mAh battery that battery can give out 3500 mA over an hour

Not to mention that the Sprint extended battery is not red....... Its black with a silver sticker.

i got mine today, its a daily pc battery and cover. Everything fits great. Ill get it charged up and let you know how it preforms. I like the cover better than some others Ive seen much cleaner look and a good feel. I think its a good price $25 shipped.

i got mine last week as well,. currently off charger, heavy to mod use, (fb, ebuddy, some birds, BT and wifi).. 4hr50m off charger @ 69% left..
def worth the 25.

Only official Sprint extended battery is the 2600mAh.
I also have a Seidio Innocell 3500mAh which is awesome. If you want official go with the Sprint 2600mAh otherwise, I'd go with the Seidio 3500mAh any day of the week.

70$ for the Seidio 3500mAh battery wow, I think I'll hold off a bit longer. LOLz

Guys when will you stop posting crap batteries?
It is so cheap that there is not a slight chance of being exactly as described...
And it is ridiculous to believe that, this battery even though it is the same size with the original, has a 2430mAh capacity!
Big capacity automatically means bulky battery.

Clearly the writing on the outside of these batteries are lies, since they do not last as long as they should.
However, for the cheap price - it does supply you with those extra critical hours you might need.
Also, the charger is very handy and also works with the stock battery! (hopefully does no harm!)

I ordered a 3600mAh battery from eBay last week. I don't suppose you have tried one of those yet have you?

Upon receiving yours, I suppose you should calibrate it using Battery Left (there's a free version) and I could add it to this thread for others to use as a reference?

Heey Navalynt!! Good to see you here man, rocked a couple of your mods for the Atrix!
About this battery, do you seriously expect it to make a difference? You won't be able to fit any case on the phone either. On the other hand, 16$ isn't the end of the world..
(Also, how do you charge them both, suppose you'll need a cradle of some sort?)

Thanks for posting, never did think these sketchy batteries were any good.

I ordered a 2 billion mAh battery from a Chinese located eBay seller, it doubles as a car battery too. Should probably last an extra 30-40 seconds longer than my OEM 1750 mAh battery from Samsung.

Re calibrating the 1900mAh battery today, will post updated stats later.

Added the re-calibration of the 1900mAh. First reading wasn't bogus, the battery lasted even less second time round! ~6 hours!

So in other words, whatever it's rated at, cut it in half if its cheap crap.

Any chance you going to do the Official Extended Battery for GSM?

I will probably order one in the future but not immediately. However I would appreciate if someone calibrated their extended battery and posted a BatteryLeft screen here, as it would most likely incline me to buy one quicker!!

4150mAh? That is more than my laptop's battery. I would love to see what kind of runtimes you get with that beast

Wow! Thanks for the heads up on this. Ordering one of each.

Would love to hear the results on the slim battery - wonder if it really reads higher than the stock 2500mah battery.

These seem awfully cheap. Is QCell a reputable manufacturer of batteries?

omg it looks so ugly and for sure it will burn your galaxy note... have fun ^^

Waiting eagerly for reviews of both ...
Somewhat dubious at that price though

Can you please post some picture with the extended battery and cover attached to the Note

Voltage * capacity = total power
Your laptop battery is around ~15V, which is 4 to 5 times higher than the battery in the note.

the lack of the polarity signs on top, and the price , and the fact that they are chinese batterys http.. etc etc ..superexporter.com/suppliers/quality111699398794775225-ningbo_qcel_battery_co_ltdDOThtml (can´t post links) makes me believe that they are just like all the others chinese fakes in ebay, worth the buy .. but don´t be expecting big mah numbers.. in fact don´t even expect 80 % of the mah of stock battery

Agreed. I get about 50% of 'stated' mAh on my Chinese batteries. Still a good buy, don't get me wrong, but I am going to pay the extra $15 to get a stock battery now.

Did the 2800 give you more time or its fake?

isn't those chinese batteries harmful for the device .... and can any one post an image for the battery usage

4150mAh @ 3.7 volts though. I bet your laptop battery runs closer to 15 volts! THe more important figure is how many watt/hr's the battery can supply.
4150mAh @ 3.7v = 15.2625 watt/hr (4.125*3.7)
4150mAh @ 15v = 61.875 watt/hr (4.125*15)

anyone with the test reports of the same

not worth it.
I bought one of each and the slim one did not even last a day. And the thick one lasted exactly a day. I was surfing the net for about one hour constantly texting maybe a 2hr phn call total. And some games like temple run and asphalt. I still recommend the mugen 3400mah this lasted me a day and a half doing the same things.
