Now we're talking about high capacity:
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/mugen-battery-back-cover-htc-touch-diamond2-3200-mah-p20775.htm
I've seen discussions in other posts regarding the 1300 mAh and 2200 mAh and I've seen that not all agree with larger back covers.
I personally think that TD2 is too slim and would be better fit for women but with this 3200 mAh battery + back cover, TD2 can serve men as well !!
Edited:
I've also found the producer's website:
http://www.mugenpowerbatterijen.nl/
sad...the picture is not really good. I think it will enlarge the thickness of TD2 extremly...or does it just seems so?
The producer's website says:
Code:
"PLEASE NOTE THIS BATTERY INCREASES THE THICKNESS OF THE DEVICE TO 23mm."
Now, the original TD2 is 13.7mm thick, so the increase is slighlty less than 1 cm.
Its a trade off on size over usage isn't it.
I used to have a Dell Axim x50, with the supplied batt you'd get about an hour of usage, not good.
With a big meaty 3000mAh+ batt, 10 hours of mp3 playing no problem but the unit is over twice as thick. But the unit is far more use. . .
I'd rather have the larger batt. . .

There is a new double capacity 2200mAH battery in Expansys website:
http://www.expansys.com.hk/d.aspx?i=183044
Wonder how is the thickness increased by this new battery? Is there any impact to the GPS radio as seen in some extended battery in original Diamond?
I'm sure that the thickness increased!
Otherwise not be sold with cover. It is like the diamond 1.
This one is much more modest (1350 mAh), but seems to fit within the original back cover:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/DIAMOND2-LONG-LIFE-BA-S360-COMPATIBLE/dp/B002AANPYG
It seems that extended batteries are appearing on the net already, nice, I would like to have something a little bit more beefy than the original one (2200 mAh may be overkill), to be able to use my TD2 on the move while not worrying about saving battery (GPS and wifi while away from plugs for 1 day for example). A battery slightly larger than the orginal, plus the original as a backup, should cover all my uses cases...
The website mentioned the extended battery only price at GBP8.90. Wish buyer may get the goods.

Interrested about your test too: how does it fit, how long for charging it (compared to standard one), and of course the most important thing: does it offer increased battery life

I bought the same one, but the size is much smaller and a bit wider than the original, as I explain in my post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3943769#post3943769
I told the guy, and he told me there must be some mistake, and he' ll send it again. How does yours look like size-wise? Is it working properly?
any news on the 1350 battery?
The issue is solved, as I explain in my relevant post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=525090&page=2
The battery I was given was wrong. The guy sent me the correct one now, and everything seems fine.
Does anyone know if it's on the market extended battery original size?
I think that would be like trying to get a quart into a pint pot!
Unless someone comes up with more advanced technology larger capacity will bring larger overall volume.
Batteries with the same size of the original one have a maximum of 1.300-1350 mha, like this:
http://www.wireshop.it/prodotti/cd_...uch_Diamond_2.html?zanpid=1290949067714601984
But I don't know if it really has a longer life duration than the original one, because I don't never try it.
However its purchase could be useful, because it is always a replacement battery.
I've found this battery, don't you think that the price is too much low? I could face fire on the phone??
Well i recieved today my 2200 mah battery with extended cover i buyd on Ebay it came from england and i payed 10 € for it.
Its marked made in China but the original marks the same so ??
Greetz Andy.
But I would to know if anyone had a good experience with a slim extended battery....

Same here... no picture posted yet, but i am sure it is going to be a very big one indeed.
It says it is 2.5 times more powerful than the original.
Though could be very indispensable for summer travellings and countryside picknicks far from civilization, but still to enjoy connected and secure feeling
Well, the 1900 mah one works great so far. It's quite possible that it will work as advertised.
Dang I'd buy it if it were in stock

The OEM Extended battery is big enough and I believe that was 2700mAh? I couldn't imagine how monstrous this thing must be, even if they do find a way to slim it down.
I suppose they could pull it off if they punched more holes in the layers and stuffed in some silicone. They'd be able to make it nearly the same size as the original OEM battery. I just don't think battery companies are doing that yet.
That's one enormous and expensive battery there. Having the oem extended battery, I don't know if I could take a much bigger battery, but it would depends on exactly how much bigger we're talking. The oem one gets me through 98% of days with absolutely no problem. The price would have to be a major consideration as well at almost 100 dollars.

wow epic battery life. Lol. My OEM extended battery lasts my just about 48 hours, I could only imagine how long that one would last, idk maybe 72!

I hope Mugen comes out with a battery that lasts a full year without recharging. I would pay $45,000 for it.
I wish they wouldn't charge so much for extended batteries.

i think we're getting somewhere...
That'd definitely be useful for people like me who love to run their phone at full speed and full brightness, but aren't near a power source most of the time. I only use my extended when I know I'm going to be out for awhile since it's such a beast, I can't imagine how huge this thing is going to be!
I just put in an order for mine should be here by end of april
Are they trying to bring the bagphone back? That's gotta be ginormous.
Thanks! gonna order a 1900 as soon as they are available
I ordered a Mugen Power 1900 mAh battery from a reputable vendor on ebay. It shipped and should be here by Thursday. It was even a few bucks cheaper than what the Mugen Power website was selling. They have over 10 of them in stock, according to the listing.
I also ordered the Mugen Power 4000 mAh battery from their website. It won't ship for a few weeks since the battery is on backorder.
I hope to do some comparative tests, like I did for my old Droid Razr, as well as a video review. But that will be next month, likely.

here's to hoping it's just creatively shaped... I feel like there's a lot of unused space behind the extended battery cover that a manufacturer could take advantage of (albeit a bit costly...)
UPDATE: Mugen says 4000 mAh battery is strong enough to power your car. Details here: http://www.thatbatteryistooEffinbig.com
how does this battery compare to the normal extended battery? would it fit in the case for the extended battery?

Dunno, 4000(mugen) - 2750(oem) = 1350 advantage(almost a standard battery) ...no pictures as of yet for size, but trust me I'll post a decent review when I get it sometime either this month or next. When ever the hell they get it to me.

Edit: math is off, I've been up for 30+ hours its 1250 advantage
why are some replacement batery's bigger than the stock that samsung delivers whit their devices
the s3 has a 2100 mah batery
but online i found batery's that are 2300 mah and even one that is 2850 mah
they don't add any bulk to the device
but my real question are they save to use ?

If u buy batteries from good brands they shouldn't harm your device... Just check the product. . There are enough and more reviews on you tube about replacement batteries. .. look at them and choose one... personally after rooting and using the brilliant ROMs made by devs here , I've never needed an extra battery :thumbup:
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
because they're not. The manufacturers are just lying to get more sales out of it, it's not like they have a reputation to defend
The power/size ratio for Li-ion is fairly linear, it isn't possible to get a greater mAh rating without also increasing the physical thickness of the battery. Sellers claiming 2850mAh in the same package as standard are actually selling you a normal 2100 (or less) battery. These types of seller are unlikely to worry much about the correct safety devices the battery should contain - Lithium fires are really bad news.
If you need a greater mAh rating, buying it from a reputable seller, then you'll need to get a new back cover for the hunchbacked profile your phone will have.
Instead I have two normal batteries and swap them over with a desk charger when empty.
You can buy normal stock batterys for the s3 from any phone store. Bigger capacity batteries (otherwise known as exteneded batteries) provide longer battery life providing your kernel doesnt prevent your phone from using more than the stock 2200 mah. Typically batteries bigger than 2700 mah will require a modified back case which you buy with the battery. Because it adds a little bulk to it

Hello everyone!
First and foremost, I would like to once again thank Zerolemon for sending me yet another product to review. As the title states, it's a 8500mAh extended battery by ZeroLemon for the LG G3 that also comes with its own ZeroShock rugged case.
I only do honest reviews to help companies improve both their current and future products, but to also give an idea to others of what to expect, but also what I think about the product and how well it works.
It has been around one week now since I received the Zerolemon for LG G3 and so far i'm very impressed! It's meeting up to its expectations, both with normal and heavy uses. I'm getting more than double the battery life (compared to the original LG G3 battery) on heavy use and the phone lasts me for about two whole days in standby mode with a full charge (that means charging the phone to 100% and then leave it without touching it until the battery is fully discharged). So as of now, I can't really complain about the performance as it is doing as expected. I previously did a review on the Zerolemon for the Nexus 5 and the material that they used for the case was actually worse than the one they used for the LG G3 case. The LG G3 case has more of a soft and bendable plastic compared to the Nexus 5 version which had more of a stiff/harder plastic. The ports are much more convenient to use on the LG G3 due to the softer plastic material, on the Nexus 5 on the other hand, the plastic seems to be stiffer so the port protection plugs tend to bend back after a few uses and hardly stay back in place (I found that to be very annoying!). All the buttons work like a charm (like always, so far on all the Zerolemon products that I’ve had).
Here are the PROS and CONS about the ZeroLemon for LG G3.
PROS:
* Good grip! Almost impossible to have the phone slip out of your hand(s).
* Does a good job taking a beating! You can basically drop it without worrying that it will break. Just like they state “Double Corner Technology to reduce shock from natural drop angles”. However, it might still shatter the screen on impact since it’s glass.
* The phone lasts more than twice as long! Battery feels like a thing of the past and the least of my concern both after normal and heavy use.
* The port protection plugs are doing an amazing job due to the quality and is no longer a pain to deal with! If it takes softer plastic for better performance, then please stick with that as I’m very pleased.
CONS:
* Too thick? It doesn't feel that comfortable to walk around with and after a while it will leave a mark on my jeans. The phone is clearly sticking out on my jeans (I also have the Zerolemon for the LG G4 that I purchased which has the same problem when it comes to thickness). I do understand that the thickness is mostly because of the battery size and the way that the phone was made, but I think that we can all agree on thinner batteries that does about the same job by taking less volume and possibly more area (kind of like the Zerolemon batteries for the Samsung S6).
* Heavy. This is not Zerolemon’s fault, but it's still a CON in general. I personally wouldn't like my phone to become heavier, bigger and/or thicker just so that I can get more out of the phone. I personally hate limits and like to get as much as possible from a phone with as little weight and thickness (I would say size, but that doesn't completely apply since screen size is important).
I personally can’t wait until Zerolemon releases an extended battery for the LG G5!
If there are any questions that you have or if there is something that you feel like I missed mentioning, then please feel free to leave a comment below.
Please support Zerolemon so that they can keep making great products for our phones as most of their products are worth it!
can you post a screenshot of SOT of your usage with this battery here.with heavy and normal usage plz
I've been using this ZeroLemon extended battery for my LG G3 for almost 6 months now and I liked it very much. Not only it extends my phone's battery life, but most especially, it resolved my G3's "rebooting" issue. After using my G3 for more than a year, I noticed that my phone reboots several times in a day. Most of the time, its when I use the camera and when I open several apps at the same time. After I changed my original LG battery to this ZeroLemon extended battery, I never encountered this same issue anymore.
However, the CONS for me when using this extended battery are the bulkiness and most importantly, you will lose your phone's NFC feature.
This product is great. I get my nfc and wireless charging back on my phone by removing the nfc and wireless charging receiver off my original case and attached it at the back of my phone. I was to purchase a receiver online but I was thinking that there might be compatiblity issues so why not use the original one. I also bought an I-ring and placed it on the bottom part of the phone (because of wireless charging) so that holding on to a bulkier phone wouldnt be much of a problem. =)
My Zerolemon's charger port flap already broke after a year.

Ive had this battery for about a year now and have to say that the battery cells are surprisingly low quality. Mine started degrading after close to 250 charge cycles and now I can barely manage 4hr SOT with this thing. When I first got it I could easily push 10Hr SOT.

After a year I'm still getting between 10 and 14 hours of SOT depending on usage. I think you just got a bad battery. Either that or something is wrong with the phone.
I had this zerolemon battery as well. I thought it might be a good idea for australia to have a long lasting battery. Problem is that my g3 refused to recognise the batterie. I always got a message after booting " no genuine batterie, will shutdown to prevent damage".
I told zerolemon about the problem (seems to be a well known problem) and i did try the "trick" to slide it in slowly with some pressure to make sure all pins got contact, but it didnt help.
Their customer support is hopeless, at least in my case. I didnt get my money back and so i left a bad rating on amazon as well.
I ended up buying a cheap heliotion batterie from aliexpress and this one works amazing, just 27a$ and 8500mah. It lasts between 3 and 4 days, medium to heavy usage.
