3 days? Thats impressive, I get 1 day if I use it normally, half day if I use ut heavy and 2 days if I use it lightly..
Does this come with a extra back case? anyone tested it and see if it really works? are Mugen a reliable company?

Thats about the normal. Dont worry about the 3 days thing. If you shut all the radios (BT, GPS, Data, etc.), shut it down at 10 in the night and power it up at 7 in the morning, and just use the device as a phone... I am sure your battery will also last a week.
I am very happy with the HD battery... I use cooked ROMs on my deivce. No doubt some of the ROMs have some battery leak, but the newr versions are very stable.
I commute One and Half hours to work each way daily. So, I watch movies on my phone for 2 hours every day. I have Exchange sync and 1 Gmail and 1 Yahoo mail accounts checking mails every 1/2 hour. I have automatic Weather and Sotck updates set up (for some reason, until I initiate the app, they dont get updated though).
I usually power my phone at 11 in the night with the battery ranging from 25% to 30% still available.
Having said that... I would definitely consider a Hi-Capacity battery as long as they are the original battery size.

it says
Height of Original Device : 12 mm
Height with HLI-T8282EX battery : 30.3 mm
but here
www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/18489.htm
it says
Power-Cell pack a huge amount of mAh into their batteries and recognise there are times that you need to use your handset extensively without having to carry a spare charger or battery.
Keeps you connected for longer.
Comes with a new battery cover to match your handset.
Battery thickness: 10mm.
Size of phone with back cover fitted is 102mm x 51mm x 17mm.
Huge difference, as 17mm is much more acceptable than 30.3...
But the pricetag?
We need a picture to speak a thousand words.
I wouldn't mind getting one as an emergency pack or for trips abroad.
Interesting.. I think the www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/18489.htm has the wrong size, or dont you think its strange that according to the Official Mugen page the size is 30.3 and on the mobilefun its only 17mm.. Doesnt feel very likely.
Can anyone confirm that www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/18489.htm really has a 4500Mha batteri at 17mm size? In that case, Im a buyer!

Doubt it very much... How can our phone shrink in size?
Blackstone dimensions: 115mm x 63mm x 12 mm
With 4500mah battery: 102mm x 51mm x 17 mm according to mobilefun.
With this battery the phone has shrunk by over 10mm in height and width. Unless these batteries explodes in all the right places I don't see how this can be correct.
Bad joke...
bigger capacity = bigger dimensions...
except for the momax battery...
i recently purchased one (1500mAh) and seems to last 25% more than the original...
and the dimensions are exactly the same as the original battery...

Allow me to disagree...
First of all i have been using it for a few days and therefore i cannot make safe conclusions...
BUT the phenomenon of showing for example 40% for a few hours and after a soft reset dropping to lets say 10% has been the rule with the original HTC battery.....
i will keep anyone interested informed.....
I ordered the 1500mha Momax battery yesterday and it was so damn cheap too! So even if the battery sux it really doesnt matter
my battery lasts for i'd say 1.5 days with few usage. semi heavy usage with music and some other stuff is not even half a day...
if the price wasnt to fricken high i'd buy one of the big ones ^^
or not... i just saw a picture and dayum -.- ugly thick ****
does this thing even fit in the pocket once its so big??
damn, who the hell pays so much for making such a beautifully looking device into such a Brick, damn you could kill someone with that xD

I found one on eBay with 1700 mAh are there bigger ones??

uh, 1700mah would really be worth it...
has somebody already tried those?
just curious if there might be risks in getting 350mah extra..dont want to brick my hd ;D
there are no risk in changing the size but if it is a cheaply made battery then something might go wrong.
yeah, thats what I meant..i'm a little bit scared of such batteries unless I got a positive review from someone ;-)
I use the 2600mah battery. Remember this refers to the storage capacity of the battrey, not how much juice it puts into the phone. My battery (from ebay) gives the phone at least twice the life. I use the GPS (tomtom) a fair bit and it makes a big diffrence. Before this I used a large aftermarket battery on my trinity for at least 2 years with no ill effect.
Note: these batteries need a larger back on them which is supplied.
I will eventually buy this 1700 mAh battery in the next weeks and post short review if it's worth the money. Actually there is very little risk to use a aftermaket battery, dasferg is totally right is't just the storage capacity it's practically the same battery with more juice!!
This one don't need a larger back on them!!! It is standard size, and you will
not need a lager back cover!!
Please send a feedback after you have test it
I've also ordered this battery, it should arrive very soon.
Ill make a review aswell
got it yesterday, recharged it to full while being off.
28 hours later its on 99%. Havent used it alot tbh.
20 mins of phone calling, and 40 mins of music.
Why not buy a second 1350 mAh to replace whn the other one is empty?
Here:
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.23961
for just $4,90.
By the way. I don't think the battery you mentioned really stores 1700mAh.
They just print 1700mAh because it sells and nobody ever checks if it is really true.
I also found a 2500mAh battery, obviously larger than the stock one. It comes with a replacement cover as well, also larger than the normal one, to accommodate the larger battery. I'm planning to buy it tomorrow, I'll test it and let you know how it works.

What a good idea, I'm waiting !!!
as far as ive researched the best battery atm that fits in the original HTC cover is the 1500mAh mugen power..
there are ones like Power Akku that is 1700mAh but arent CE approved or properly tested...
seems to me akku are like a cheap dodgy no name brand which is why i wouldnt recommend it
is it worth the cash for 11% more juice?
Sure, there will be situations where you need to do someting and you curse yourself for not buying another hour of power, but it won't change your charging habits. 33% might, 50% would...
[tho @ £9.95 from blueunplugged.com it wound't hurt to have a bigger one to swap out with]

Just got back home with the new 2500mAh battery. First impression: the device looks bulkier with the larger battery in place and is, obviously, heavier. There is a small advantage here, though, you can stash up to 4 extra microSD's between the area below the battery (sim and microSD slot) and the cover. I'm charging the battery now, I'll stress test it when it reaches 100% and post the results.

The 1700 mAh has about 26% more juice over the 1350 mAh, i won't change my charging habits. But i hope my HD will have juice for a whole day... i'm permanently running Skype in the background an this eating up my battery like mad!
Yesterday evening I turned my HD off and charged the 1700mAh to max.
Turned the phone on again yesterday at midnight.
I've used it alot today by using coreplayer to watch an episode of Sopranos, and like 1 hour of music. Called for like 30 mins. Used MSN for like 3 hours through HSDPA and Opera for about 10 mins. Now, roughly 26hrs later, it's at 70%.
note, I have HSDPA always on.
I bought this and used it for a month now, happy with it, performs like my original HTC battery.
Looks almost identical, but 1500mAh instead. Like to have the 1700mAh, but difficult to justify the price difference!

Anyone know of a seller that ships to the US? The above seller only ships to Europe.
I usually wouldn't care about the size of my G1 and adding thickness to it for the sake of adding battery life but as of late I gotten a hold of a nice plastic cover for my G1 which also doubles as a neato belt clip (for only 10 bucks... flirtin with them T-Mobile ladies does me good ).
Thus, now adding thickness to my phone in exchange for getting rid of this hard cover/belt clip isn't a option I'm very likely to take up and last I checked up on high capacity batteries it would add sigificant thickness like a 2100mah (or was it 2400 *shrugs*). Was wondering if there's any batteries that doesn't add to overall physical size while giving me better then stock life of just 1100mAh. Thanks!!
I know how you feel, I have a sexy ass neon green hard case for my g1, make it look sick. I had the same problem and tried three different battery retailers online for an extended life battery. The one that I settled on was the Andida: check out this post. You can find the eBay seller most of the people in the thread bought it from, good seller but ships from Hong Kong so shipping takes a while. I'd solidly recommend the Andida, I've had nothing but excellent performance out of it, considerably better than the OEM battery from HTC. Some people had mixed reviews about it, but in my experience, it was an excellent purchase.
I'm also using an Andida battery I bought off of ebay for just under $10, and it works beautifully! It's a 1600mAh battery with the exact same dimensions as the stock 1150mAh battery HTC provides, giving you 40% more battery life between charges without adding any thickness to the phone. It's the highest capacity battery I've found that doesn't require you to get a deeper back cover.
I've been useing the Innocell 1400mAh battery and its worked out quite nicely.
i use the regular battery, and it works for me 2 days, with lots of use and 3g use

I bought a Seidio 1400 battery off eBay and now I carry an extra battery in my computer bag.
Another vote for the Andida. It's SO much better and no added thickness

Not necessarily lies. Battery life is heavily dependent on your particular rom.
Hero based roms seems to suck battery like no tomorrow.
If you are running a hero based rom, try running the latest Cyanogen rom and post back results.
I get a couple of days on my Fommy 1700 regularly.

Screw it, I'm ordering one, and I'll let you all know how it does. I remember how much I loved the heft of my treo 755p... still miss that phone sometimes, but the g1 does all the things that I loved it for and more, all it needs is the gigantic battery life, and now it may have it.

The big question is, DOES it really last 2 x longer
will it work with the TILT2 from ATT in the US?
Bulky
yeah i understand it 2x capacity meaning two standard 1500mAH battery combine to = one 3000mAH battery.
Have you seen any battery that the same size as the standard battery but offering at least 20% more battery life?
It's not the same size, it has another cover and the size is almost double...

Seidio 1750mah is about as close as you're gonna get.
This will not work with the US-version of the phone.
2000mAH for less than $10 including shipping and it is std size.

Just took the plunge, ordered two of these as well. The seller seems to be very reputable. Will post when the two arrive that I ordered.
Just ordered 2 as well (And I live in HK so I may very well get it before you ehehe )
Given the price it's worth a try. The seller looks serious, but it's very possible we end up with a lemon battery which doesn't perform much better thna the original one (Again given the price it wont be a terrible loss...)

You can check their website, there are batteries for each type of TP2 (Sprint, or HTC original, etc, etc). I don't know if the shape actually differs but it's the same price and this way you are 100% sure to order the right one
I am a bit pissed off, ordered 3 days ago and though I live in HK it has still not been delivered...

Hi all,
at the moment, my hero sprint (I think this is the proper name) is running on the factory 1350mAh battery. I am pretty content, but I am reading about 1800mAh batteries that should live a lot longer! But on the batteryboss.org I see most are just rip-offs.
Whats the battery of your choice? What are your results and: where did you order it?
I am more than open for all advice about this subject, as long as the battery fits in the stock opening. I do not want my hero to become any bigger than is is
htcheroblog.com/2010/02/14/mugen-power-1550mah-3200mah-htc-hero-battery-review/
Read the five pages and it should give you an idea as to which battery (if any) you want.
Unless your away from your charger for more than one night then the standard htc battery should be sufficient, although I personally have the huuuuge 3200mAh battery which is amazing and lasted over 40 hours for me even with wireless and gps pretty much constantly on. Hope that helped

I also have a 3200 mAh battery and its lasted 14 days on minimal use! That's how good the Hero can be! I use the stock Battery for day to day use though as I get 2 days out of it usually.
I use 2200mAh purchased from Clove uk (part number is HTC-BATEHEROW-B15).
My battery goes down to 60-70% after a day use, WiFi on all time and quite a lot of calls.
It used to go down to 20-30% with the orginal battery.
The real good thing is that the phone has now taken an extra 5mm of thickness and this extra bit makes it much much easier to hold on my hands.
The cover color is real white and does not match the white Hero color, no big deal.

I dont expect many will have a much higher capacity worth buying if you dont want to add depth to the phone soory
If anyone is interested the Clove batteries (2200mAh) are only £7ish delivered to the UK now!
It may be a pricing error? no idea, either way Ive ordered!
Only available in white though... but almost twice the power for less than a 10er! Im in!
(I will probably cover the back cover in stickers anyway... its what all the Apple people do so its easily acceptable for a Android user to do it lol)
I also bought one And thank god i ahve a white hero
i bought one too...
Well my order just got cancelled by them because apparently they arnt in stock (even though they have been on the site listed as 'in stock' for the past few days) and they have removed the item from the site!
Havn't responded to my email asking if my money has been returned either!
Very professional...

and i've been using the phone quite a lot, including a couple of full wipe-flashing-backup
I have a 3200 mAh battery somewhere. But I really don't like the bulky back. When using Froyo, I had to use it as my phone wouldn't survive 12 hours with the stock battery. Now, running Gingerbread, a 1500 mAh battery I bought from DealExtreme for 5 USD lasts about 20 hours normale use.

You do have to cut away a little bit of the plastic though. But they are cheap, I've got two of them now, one in the phone and one charged in my pocket.
I think this is as big as it's going to get without having to replace the backdoor?

wich one did you guys bought: the 2200mAh or the other big one?
kudos
Can anyone link me to this clover batteries for the Hero, please?
Digging up old thread but just wondered,has anyone used those 1550 mAh replacement batteries.
I'd like to buy one from ebay but i don't know if it is worth it.
Thanks in advance
There's 3200 mAh, 2200 mAh, 1550 mAh, and the stock 1350 mAh batteries.
I have the 2200 mAh version.
Its only $13.75 USD and is smaller than the 3200 mAh version.
It comes with the back case and lasts almost twice as long as the stock battery.
I wouldn't spend +$79 on just a battery. I'd rather buy 2 2200 mAh batteries. Cheaper and easier to carry.
I found this battery : cgi.ebay.co.uk/GOLD-2430mAH-BUSINESS-BATTERY-HTC-DREAM-GOOGLE-G1-/110629829852?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item19c20d3cdc#ht_2657wt_905
Anyone tested it? Worth?

Interesting. If nobody replies I think I will buy one in a week or so.
Great! I haven't got any money, so I can't buy this battery, but I hope so you'll write what about this battery you think
interesting, thanks to someone who buy this ;P
Could do with a bigger battery, might buy it.
Price is pretty decent. All battery prices for G1 batteries have dropped compared to a few years ago.
The price for this one is probably less than I paid for my 1st replacement.
Its price is a lot less than the 2600 mAh one from Seido http://www.seidioonline.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=BACY26TMG1-BK The Seido battery makes the G1 even look more like a brick then it already does
Looks like a good alternative if the claims from the manufacturer are correct.
Usually they are not....
I hope that after three months, battery does not begin to lose their power.

Got it a while ago. Not actually performing that high, more like 1700 mAh. Still a nice improvement. This battery +14 MB ram hack + way underclocking when screen off = ~2 days use.
So.. Better to buy 1700mAH battery? I have a Eclair with Sense on my G1 and I have underclocking when screen is off. 2430mAH or 1700mAH ?

Well 2 days use is a lot more than what i get.
I used gps logger from fully charged with screen off. It lasted 12 hours to 27%.
If the battery under performs, you can always send it back.

Yes and no
I bought the battery off ebay and it said (in the page desc. and on the battery) 2300 mAh, but I asked the seller and they said it is a 1700 (don't think we can get li-ion that small for that much juice for that price...yet). So get the biggest you can get. I also bought a big-ass battery (one that doubles the thickness), and that is a true 2400+ battery.
*I should clarify. Use for me=calls and texts. Wifi is almost always off and no data. Sorry, I know nearly no one does it like this. I have no data plan and got this phone for really cheap to mess around with android. Now I have a nook color that I'm using for everything
Before the nook color I could last a full day (7-10) and maybe be at 10%, but I never did too much surfing or anything, just email and whatnot.
The super large battery could easily last 2 days of heavy use (on it w/everything on for 7 hours?), if you don't mind a pocket bulge.

I have that one, except with a white battery cover that I can see shipped for $7 if interested. Used for a few days, then didn't want the extra volume. PM if interested.

The guy told me, in not so many words, that performance depended on how you use it yada yada yada...
