1500 mAH is the biggest slim battery to get..but users state no real benefit from the 1300 or 1350mAH. I am would buy what ever is cheaper since I dont really think any are better...it is how you take care of the battery by fully discharging before charging, etc..

Actually lithium-ions do not like to be fully discharged before charging. Charge as often as you can.

I read that before but I still get better usage if I fully discharge...there is no memory but per daily use if I charge from dead it just lasts longer.
thanks for the tip on the extended mega-battery, wpbear.
i'm going to give it a shot.
with football season approaching, i like the idea of having a super power battery for those looooong days of college football.
Whats a good place to just get a OEM replacement battery that isnt going to charge me $40 like an AT&T store?
U should be able to find a competative variety on EBAY. That's where I find a lot of accessories..
I really like the Sedio brand, 1500mah slim batteries, have 2, fit perfect and work well.
Saw this on ebay

Given that batteries have been exploding all over the place, there definitely is something that could go wrong 8(

Which one and where? HD2 high capacity batteries

Recommendations?
I recommend a Mugen 2600mah battery off ebay. I have one and you can leave it one for several days without fail.

Innocell 1900mAh Slim Extended Life Battery

1900 mAh battery that fits with stock battery door.

Sure am hoping this does the trick. Maybe I'll be able to make 4 phone calls and send 10 text messages without a charger!

50 bucks for a battery? It had better be able to do a lot more than make a call!

So far all aftermarket batteries have been 1000mAh.
Waiting for someone to do a sticker pull on this Seidio 1900mAh and the BestBuy Platinum Series 1900mAh.
Then we'll see.

Well I used the 3500 mah on my EVO 4G and I got 36 hours on light to moderate use (not hammering it with playing games)
Worked really well for me, and I paid $58 shipped for mine.

Well, the guy even tested it, and it came out to almost twice the original battery, at about 2900. That's definitely a plus. Problem is, it only tested at 81% of advertised... If the 1900 comes out to 81%, it'll be 1540 mAh, smaller than the OEM battery.
Hopefully someone grabs it and does a real test to see how it stacks up.
Got a set of Chichitech batteries for my 4G off Amazon a couple months ago: two batteries and a charger for $28.99. They are advertized as 1900 mah. Not sure if they are quite that but they definitely last longer than the stock Evo 4G battery so I was happy for about 14 bucks per battery. This looks too much like "early adopter ripoff" where people charge high fees for being the first out the door.

The lazy bestbuy bums here in Orange, ca. STILL DON'T have this battery yet.
No knowledge, no eta. Ship or Die basically. I hate waiting on **** that should already be here.
BOoo!

If anyone gets it and could do a gram weight on the battery. That would be great.

He is no doubt talking about the Chichitec batteries from HTCexpress (31.49 shipped with off10 coupon)
So far they work perfectly for myself and a bunch of others.

Innocell 4000mAH Exteded Battery
I just ordered the Innocell 4000mAH Exteded Battery off amazom. It was $69. I got tired of my phone dying all the time. Most people won't like this battery because it's makes the phone bulkier.

Do you think it's worth paying $20 more to get external charger from China right now?

Even though I've had good luck with the couple of things I've bought on amazon from China, my common sense is telling me to not be so impulsive. I found someone in China that has the Samsung external battery charger even though just about everyone has it sold out for now. What are your thoughts? I an getting tired of charging the phone every day because the only battery I have is the one that came with the phone. Ordering from China, you always have the risk of being scammed. It will also take at least a week or two to get here from there. Hmm. Wait a month or two to get it twenty dollars cheaper and from a more reliable source...
Go to the play store and download DS battery saver. It works so good I bought the pro version. I have no need for a spare battery with it

I got this external battery after i saw it in another thread its got enough to charge the phone twice and it saves me buying a wireless charger as well.i think it is a great deal to share it with my friends here.

2600mah wont even fully charge your battery once. Your battery is 3200mah.

I picked up a real OEM charger from a sprint corporate store last week. Buying anything from China is always a risk you'll get scammed with counterfeit hardware.

i have me632,BB9930,droid and i9500, my friend.

Need GOOD external battery.

Going to be spending a week in the mountains in NC. No power back in the woods. If anyone has personal experience with a GOOD external battery pack I would like some input. I take the kids camping and that's why I have spent so much time trying to get the max battery life from this phone. I can make it 4 days. Not 7 though. Lol needs to be durable of course. And reliable.
Coming from some one working on a project that will make this phone last a month w/o charging I thought you would know the answer to this lol

Lol never had a use for a weeks use before. I seriously doubt it could make it that long regardless of what I did. The most on screen time is going to be about 24 hours. And that is with inside and low light conditions. Gonna be outside so screen would drain it.
I don't have personal experience with it, but this should definitely be worth a try. Make sure you use the correct code.

It's kinda funny that they show the 13000mAh battery for $45, but it's actually $30 on Amazon and has been since around January .
The 15000mAh battery is $40 on Amazon vs their $54 listed price when you click the link and has also been $40 since around January. Not sure why they claim they are on sale today ......... maybe cause it says " Gawker Media may get a commission" in the fine print.
Still a seem to be a good deal though.
$5 Below has 6600 mAh batteries for $5 each. Not sure how good they are. Someone I know has one and says it works well.

Works great! I've used it to recharge coworkers phones and it used maybe 10% off my battery but gave them about 50% enough to get by and took about a half hour. And the charge cable is small and fits in my wallet very handy indeed.

Can't remember if it came with it or I got it separately. I got 2 ham2s and got the Bluetooth speaker with one of them. That tiny charge cable means my phone's basically an external battery (but just for other phones with a micro USB port).

Looks like the hurricane is going further west than I hoped. Trip delayed. Will give me chance to test out the battery pack anyway. Lol.
I borrowed a 6600mAh power bank purchased at 5-Below (haha) and fully charged it, then used it to charge my HAM2 which was at 4%. Power bank crapped out at 77%. Will repeat the experiment within a few days and post back. So much for 6600 mAh, more like 3000 mAh.
How's the solar power bank your wife found? Probably another scam unless you paid a lot for it. Look up reviews on YouTube.
