I am not a big fan of extra batteries. The idea of doing a battery pull and replace another is not pleasing.
I got a rechargeable charger at Best Buy, an Energizer charger for $19.99. Provides 6 hours of talk time. They also have a $39.99 charger for 12 hours of talk time.
I find this to be a great alternative for extra batteries.

Those are certainly good options which don't require you to reboot or buy a charger to charge your batteries. Luckily the Evo boots much quicker than the Pre.

I picked up a 5,000 mAh dual USB charger at Costco for $15. I don't know why it was so cheap (it will completely charge my phone ~3 times). It was a few months ago so YMMV.
any idea who makes this? I have a 2000 mAh one, but would like a bigger one.

Found one by Brando http://usb.brando.com/usb-power-station-5-000mah-_p01468c035d15.html
Found this on ebay looks like a knockoff of the brando http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...370391817008&ff4=263602_263622#ht_3088wt_1137
I've been using this forever:

I use it on all of my electronics and it holds a charge for weeks in between use
I just found out they have an 8800mAh one - just ordered that sucker!

that 8800mAh one is kick ass.
lol but i'll settle with my Energizer one. Used my Best Buy gift card when I pre-ordered the Evo.
But these are definitely better than extra batteries IMHO.
Is there any place that has these things(either the 5000 or 8800 maH) in a store like best buy or something because I'm not a fan of buying off the internet

I'm sure you can find one somewhere. Just not the Trent Imax brand most likely. You can get energizer ones at BB.
i know i went to best buy and looked at the energizer 2000 maH one for 39.99 but for anyone that has it how much does it recharge your battery? because when i had my G1 the porrtable charger only filled it up about 30%(im talking about the portable charger sold at t-mobile)
I bought the IMP880 portable charger, 8900 mAh. I like it, although I haven't really used it much yet. But it should in theory be able to charge my phone about 5 times. It's not very big, or to heavy (to me) but it does have some heft. I wear cargo pants, so I just keep it in a pocket with me where ever I go.

It would charge it a little over 1 time. How come you don't buy things online? Generally you pay about 40% extra at stores.

does the IMP880 come with a microUSB adapter as part of the original package or is that something that has to be bought separately off New Trent's website?

Aw crap, I wrote up a reply to this earlier today on my phone, and then before I submitted it I did something, and my internet task got killed forgot about it. Yes it does come with a microUSB adapter (as well as a miniUSB and a USB splitter, and some proprietary thingy). There are 2 outputs (USB and D/C out) and one input (D/C in for charging). There's one hard button, for power or to check the power level (have to hold down on the power buttron for 4 seconds to turn it on/off), and 4 tiered power LEDs for power level.
There's a USB cable that comes with the charger is a special one that the other end is a female plug and the micro, mini, and proprietary adapter things are male, and so are interchangeable with the cord that comes with the charger, although the data cable that comes with the phone will work, and mine is actually longer than the cable that came with the phone (if that matters)

Sadly added this to my Amazon cart last week when it was $33. It went up to $43 in a couple days and I unfortunately pulled the trigger at the higher price. Looking forward to getting this in the mail today. I'll monitor the price over the next couple of weeks so I could hopefully request a credit from Amazon.
This is what i use http://store.goal0.com/index.php?p=product&id=12 , may be a little overkill but it gets the job done, I can charge my phone almost 50 times from empty to full... its also great for laptops, and small microwaves(j/k) kinda pricey but well worth it if you find yourself in the middle at the bottom of the grand canyon a lot, or the middle of the Atlantic ocean....

I have one of the energizer ones, It never does a "Full" charge to the phone, it tops it off to about 60-70% and then when the phone dies some more, it will have a little more juice to give the phone. Not exactly as advertised, but I keep it in the car for an emergency battery so it works great for that, and for note I dont have the 19.99 energizer one I have the bigger more expensive one. Also, they are put together worse then most remotes, I split mine within a week from just dropping it into the door pocket of the car.

Here it is: http://www.amazon.com/Sanyo-eneloop...TF8&s=electronics&qid=1277406229&sr=1-2-spell

I don't know if it has been discontinued or what - it's not easy to find online. $46.99 is also much more than what I spent.
This one looks awesome though: http://www.amazon.com/New-Trent-IMP880-External-Battery/dp/B002YFDRHW

I have this: http://www.buy.com/prod/motorola-p7...k/q/listingid/76445460/loc/111/203472669.html
It doesn't hold that much power, but it's cheap and convenient. Enough for one charge, or somewhere close to it. I also have a little mini to micro USB adapter, as the charger itself has a mini port.
I just ordered this from the T-Mobile website. I had the same thing with the vibrant and even with this bigger battery I need a second to get through a full day. I'm terrible on battery life on every phone though so it may not be a necessity for most. On my Sensation I was able to get two Anker 1900mah batteries and charging station for $20 on ebay but I can't wait for those for this phone. Hope this helps others.

It is also a dock for your phone so win win...
It would be real cool if while phone was on dock it charged it too! OP could you let us know if it does. Thanks!
i'm also looking forward to order this set as well
i'll definitely need at least 2 more spare batteries and charging dock
If it's the same as the samsung vibrant which I believe it is then no it does not charge your phone. You'll have to have your phone plugged in separately or just swap fully charged batteries.

Ya figured as much... I could do fine with just the two bats. but little worried about how much abuse the back cover can take, the way it clips in is fine but after daily or twice daily seems like it might wear out mighty fast since its so little material already!

Yeah I like that dock but I don't mind paying $50 for a battery and sort of a dock, but cant pay $50 for just a dock. I can play my videos through my hdmi or wifi so no use for the stand alone dock.
I really like the official Samsung dock. Can't justify $50 for it though.
MediaDock does not allow data connection
Heads up on the desktop media dock. I picked it up thinking it would allow a charging/ubuntu connection. Nope. Charge only.
Ordered the charger w/spare battery. I had one of these for my Vibrant and am already missing the spare battery... Exchange push email + the other items I run on the phone make a evening battery swap inevitable...
Just ordered one. A spare battery will be great on this phone, not to mention 2. I could go 2 days without a charger.
Deebo took your bike too?
Just got mine today. Pretty good quality and is what you'd expect from Samsung. The part that holds the phone is decent but far from a dock. Id be worried somebody could bump the table and knock it over.
All in all, its a external charger and does what its designed to do - charge batteries. I can cycle through my 3 batteries evenly now and not have to worry about juice from here on out.
Deebo took your bike too?
The Nitro battery is model number BL-49kh. Not many cheap OEM options out there right now, but an "official" spare can be purchased from AT&T store:

Well Tokie, for your car, u can use something like this:
http://www.amazon.com/Energizer-Universal-Car-Charger-Pc-2ca/dp/B004YZI1T4
One of the ports will have a 1.5amp output and will suffice to charge your battery quickly.
And if you have a tablet or wanna go ultra crazy in charging your battery n burning it U can use something like this:
http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0364269
That one has a 2.1amp output as well, enough power to burn a hole in your phone's battery LOL!!

For those of you who are getting an external battery charger, will you let me know if it manages to charge the batteries to 100%? I currently use a universal battery charger, which worked great for my other phone batteries (would charge them quickly and fully, so when I popped them into my phone, it showed 100%), but for whatever reason, when I try to externally charge my Nitro's battery, no matter how long I leave it or put it back on the charger, it will only reach 88% or so. Then I have to fill up the rest by putting the battery in the phone and charging through USB. I know it's not my battery (I have two, and they both do it), so I'm just curious if other external battery chargers might be better. Let me know if it works for you! If it does I'll get whatever kind you have. I'd be super grateful, thanks!
I'm getting a legit LG battery charger specifically for the nitro. It'll take me about 2 weeks to get it (coming from LG itself in Korea) but when it gets here I'll try it n will let u know how it goes.

I ordered 1 extra battery AND the battery/batterycharger/cable from the ebay seller I mentioned earlier.
The batteries seem legit, they last just as long and have identical plastic casings. However, the two batteries I bought from ebay have a different sticker/label on them. They do not have the "FCC" markings on them or any other american legalese on them.
As far as the charger goes, it works great. I carry a battery in my wallet, one in the phone, and one in my backpack. I really like the peace of mind!
I also got mine from that Ebay seller. I'm confident it's legit. The build is identical, and it maintains charge and behaves exactly the same as the one that came with my phone. It's just probably the battery for the Asian Optimus lte, hence no fcc and different labeling. I'm not worried, and I'm pretty careful about batteries.
@red solo cup, do you know if the charger manages to bring the battery to 100%, ie, when you pop it in the phone and turn it on, do the battery stats actually say 100? My current charger brings it to around 90%, which is not bad, but if I'm going to buy another charger, I'd like it to max out the battery completely =) Thanks!
I have not checked Battery Monitor Widget immediately after putting in the battery, so I cannot absolutely confirm that the battery charges to 100%. However, I have noticed that the battery in the notification area was completely full, including the little "nub" on the left of it.
I will check this out when I get back from work tonight.
If the nub's full, it's at least at 95% I'm pretty sure.
Damn, I don't mind getting it from him, but he posted that it will take almost 20 days to a month for the item to get to me! That's frigging much too long for shipping something overseas. Things I get in China or HK doesn't even go beyond 2 weeks the longest.

@aquariuz: I really cannot recall how long shipping took as I ordered the battery on the 15, and the battery+charger on the 21st. I was away for the holidays, but by the time I got back to my place on the 28th they were both in my mailbox.
You're the best! Thanks a bunch! Ordering mine ASAP! =)

Has anyone found any dual USB (2.1a and 1a) with 12 - 24v input? I run crane and sadly in most of our cranes the Cig Lighter socket is running 24v.
I have a few 12 - 24v input single USB chargers with 1amp out but.. I'd love to find a dual. I have to run my speakers and charge my phone or mp3/RADIO -- seeing as how Optimus doesn't have a FM tuner

I found this on amazon. The specifications specifically state: "Input: 12-24V DC; Output: 5.0V DC 2.1Amp" Plus it is only 5.99+free shipping.
I have this and the specs on kensington's website state "Input: 10V-18VDC, Output (30pin/USB): 5VDC-3100mA.", So I assume that will not work.
so if i have to buy a car charger, what is the MAX specs i can use for the LG OPTIMUS LTE?
Does anyone have a link to one compatible with the battery for the Verizon Nexus? I have an OEM extended battery, but I wanted to be able to charge my standard battery in case I need it. Anyone have any suggestions?
you mean something like this.
this one is for samsung batteries, and will fit most sizes with the adjustable slider, i'm using it for my Galaxy nexus, i'm sure if the pins are right the verizon battery should work too.
it comes in a package with a 1450mAh battery and comes free when I purchased the Gnex
this one on ebay should be ok, works with any battery, adjustable pins and slider for different battery size.

the one on ebay is a safe bet, works with any brand of batteries and has a USB for phone charging, but i'm sure the USB isn't powerfull enough, should be the usual 5V 500ma.
if you're not in a rush, i'm in china from 7-8, ill check them out for some better quality ones, and report back, as the ebay one is just a very cheap one in comparision to those that i've seen in china before.

Are you referring to Part#: SAMI405BOC? Verizon's (US) site states not compatible with the SGN but i'm sure it's the right one. There is even a review about it with the SGN. I had to switch my device to the Samsung Stratusphere to add it to my cart.
Might as well get the one that Verizon sells to ensure nothing goes wrong. I got it and enjoy it...very useful with phones like this. It comes with an extra battery, the external charger itself, and a splitter so you can charge your phone at the same time.

sorry it's kinda late, the yoobao is a more realiable brand, and getting one of these will work for all batteries.

YB307 cost USD 7.20
DC-IT007 cost USD 5.50
both can use for any phone battery, any brand, so you dont need to buy a desktop charger for every phone.
YB307 also has a USB socket to charge your phone or any USB device, connects direct to the mains through a 2 flat pin plug.
DC-IT007 connects to power through a nokia mini pin connector/microUSB/miniUSB, so you can charge using your PC or mains socket.

Unless I'm overlooking the obvious, I don't see any way to order this charger directly from Yoobao? I was able to find a variety of Yoobao chargers on eBay / Amazon / etc, but none of them appeared to be the YB307.

If any of you guys used any of these, what is your experience with it? Also if you could provide info on whether or not the Nexus 5 will stick on there until a certain angle or will it slip right off even if you move the charger around. Asking this because i'll be using it in the car also.
Thanks
I have the Lugulake one. It's good, works well, charges the phone in a very similar time to the wall charger and has a decent grip on the phone, not sure how good it'd be in car tho. But.... I also want one of these which I'll be ordering soon for the car -

I also have the Lugulake and I'm quite happy with it.
I think both of those devices are available on Amazon and for under $50. I'm thinking of getting the first one. Vent mount and I can use my SGS3 with it.

I have the Lugulake one. It's good, works well, charges the phone in a very similar time to the wall charger and has a decent grip on the phone, not sure how good it'd be in car tho. But.... I also want one of these which I'll be ordering soon for the car -

I have one I got on ebay that is 10,000mah and looks identical to the first link. (http://www.ebay.com/itm/141047804367) It cost $37 (looks like the price dropped a little since) and so far I'm very happy with it, though I've only used it a bit when traveling. It does take a while to charge since 10,000mah on a 1A charger is 10hrs. I haven't really carefully tested its functionality though. I wonder if its current discharge limit is lower than it says, though, since I noticed when I had my n5 plugged into it the 2.1A port and under heavy use (games) the phone battery didnt charge, it only discharged slower... I'll have to test more.
