I see that Mugen have updated their website to say that standard size and large capacity batteries will be available for the TC at the end of April
Reteb
Looking forward to the OEM sized high capacity battery.
Thanks for the heads up.

thanks matey
Nicely spotted Reteb. Thanks. I've been hoping for this for a while
I see the capacities are still TBD. Judging by the currently shipping TyTN II batteries it would be reasonable to expect at least the same, i.e. 1500mAh for the same-size replacement and 3000mAh for the over-sized replacement.
Does anyone have any experience with Mugen power batteries? I came here from the PalmOS world and my previous device was a Sony Clie TH-55. That had quite an active forum and one thing we discovered there was that there were a lot of third-party batteries out there for the TH-55 which, if you just looked at the manufacturer's claimed mAh ratings, should have delivered between 15% and 20% extra battery life per charge compared to the factory-fitted battery.
What we actually found by running standard battery discharge test programs on many devices was that in real life the replacement batteries at best only just matched, and in most cases failed to match, the performance of the factory-fitted battery. Whether this was because of dishonest labelling by the manufacturers or whether it was because they had sat on shelves in hot warehouses for too long was never determined.
I just hope that Mugen power label their batteries honestly and store them properly before shipment because even a 1500mAh battery should in theory be an 11% increase over the factory-fitted one and that would give me another 80 minutes of music playing time on my device so definitely worth having.

Here is one new extended capacity monster for the Touch Cruise.
http://www.boxwave.com/products/hig...ty-extended-battery-htc-touch-cruise_3046.htm
Have you seen this one?:
http://www.netimes.com/shop/replacement-battery-for-htc-touch-cruise-p3650-p-1028.html
Is not extended, but I think, the cheapest...and it works as the original one!!!
I bought two batteries and a lot of more things (cases, car support, protectors, cradle, stylus..), and I have to say its a very serious shop..
Wow, that's pretty cheap, I prefer to have one or two spare if I'm away for a while rather than having a huge bulge sticking out of the back. No catch? Will this also be the replacement battery for the Orbit 2?
Spare Battery - Cheap.
Found this on eBay, and checked just now (August 4, 2008) and they still have them. Ships from Asia, but arrived in under a week and is absolutely dirt cheap and perfect quality. The wall charger is the only convenient way to charge a spare battery, and the battery plus the charger together for $7 + 6.50 shipping is amazing.
And, of course, i do realize that i sound like the spokesperson for the seller - but it's really an amazing deal and i wanted to share witcha

Hi,
are there stronger batteries for the Hermes device available?
Shipped one is about 1350mAh, maybe a third party offers 1900mAh.
I have seen a 1500 mAh ones, but I think some 3rd party battery manufacturers are a tad "optimistic" when they state their batteries capacity, so i dont know if they last much longer than the original battery.
There are indeed some compatible and HTC original batteries (same as for HTC Apache) with capacities up to 2800mAh, but there are no compatible battery covers for the Tytn yet, since the batteries need extra room, thus battery compartment extension.
3000mAh soon: http://www.lionbattery.com/description.php?noproduit=473
Boy! Can't wait til they come out with that one!
More Power More Power !
WOW They even have a 4800mAh now
http://www.lionbattery.com/description.php?noproduit=324
Could you imagine.. This would be a small heavy weapon sorta.. You could throw this and really hurt someone.. Just the weight of the unit with this power pack.. YIKES..
4800mAh is for Universal.
Mugen Power Netherlands rep say they are working hard on a same-size-as-original power battery with around 2000 mAh. Waiting for that one. Of course the price needs to be right, not 1/10 of the device´s price.

which one is it? and how would you buy it?
A stronger battery would be great.
I got one of the advertised 1500mah batterys off of ebay today for $20. When it gets here i will do a battery comparison and update you on the resaults.
is it physically the same size as original?

i believe the one i bought is the same one as kramer11's but it's about the same size as original. seems slightly thicker but you won't notice the difference.
you probably won't notice the battery life difference either as it is only 150mah difference. i ended up purchasing a 3000mah one and have started using it from today. it makes the device thiker but it's a great stuff that comes with a replacement battery cover. recommended for anyone who wants longer battery life.
I dont understand why the hermes battery is twice the size as the htc wizard and is only 100mah more.
Anyone ?

Can you post some pics regarding how does this battery look on your TyTN? And how is that working out? Would really appreciate some more details .. Also, where did you buy it from?
How about this one?
http://www.boxwave.com/products/hig...ded-battery-htc-wizard-cingular-8125_1160.htm
It's for the 8125/Wizard
Would it work in the 8525 / TYTN?
--sorry some how i missed posting the link, how useful was this post?
Boxwave battery response
I requested that boxwave look into compatibility of the ElectraSpan Extended Battery (which allready works for the 8125/Wizard) for the 8525/TYTN.
The response I received from boxwave was they would look into the request but it depends on requests (demand) received as to how quickly they will develop/offer the new products.
So here is the link to request the extended battery for the 8525:
http://www.boxwave.com/community/request/request_model_103.htm
Fill in your name and email and then a quick note telling them you have the 8525/TYTN and hit submit. If enough of us request this battery they'll probably bump it up on their priority list.

Done. I used one under which I've ordered from them before, so maybe that'll pull a tiny bit more weight than a random e-mail address....

Nice capacity (2500 mAh) but it blows away the same leather case they sell that I just got for my Cingular 8525 I'll wait for battery technology to get slimmer, thank you very much. In the meantime, I just acquired a second 1350 mAh battery so I can pop it in if needed.

I searched but did not find much current information-
Has anyone gone to an oversized high capacity replacement battery for their wizard? I see several on ebay from $17 to $30 delivered and doubling the battery capacity has to be a good thing.....right?

i was thinking about it as all wm devices suck on battery life... but i charge mine all day at work and on my nitestand, and it usually lasts about two days without charging anyways....
i figured my brick is already big enough i'd just buy a second battery and keep alternating the two (keep one in the car or something with a car charger)...
I did purchase a large / double capacity battery - and am very happy with the purchase. Yes, it makes the brick a bit larger, and does come with a battery door as the original will not fit.
I was having charging issues, believe my battery was at the end of its lifespan - was having to charge every night, and if battery got below 51%, my wizard would continually loop at windows mobile flash screen.
I've gone as long as four days without a charge with the new extended battery - that is running some of the XDA WM6 roms - using wifi, etc.
I find the phone easier to hold with the larger battery
Just my .02 cents
Have a good one
does the phone with the bigger battery still fit in the regular case?
Thanks
The phone still fits in my holder - that was a big plus for me.......
The holder I have is a brown leather one with the logo Reiko on it. Came with the phone when I bought it on ebay. It has elastics on the side, so not sure if it is a specific holder for the wizard only.
Can't really help much more than that
Have a good one
Thanks for the info, bill_in_mtl.
I have decided to buy one. Hopefully it'll fit in the case.
What's a good place to buy one?
I found someone on e-bay selling them for $12 shipped.
http://cgi.ebay.com/2400mAh-Ext-OEM...ameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem#ebayphotohosting
It says it's by Celxpert.
Is this battery to be trusted, or could this turn out to be a cheap, low quality product?
I purchased mine on ebay also - for just about the same price. Have had no issues whatsoever with the new battery.
One note is that you need to ensure you identify which model you have - the different Wizard models have different battery doors.
Cingular 8125 and TMobile MDA have different battery doors. I noticed that the ebay item you linked shows it is for the mda.
I ordered and received the correct item for the 8125.
Thanks again for the info.
I just ordered the one I linked to.
I do have a T-mobile MDA.
I'll report here how it works out.
After one day of using the high capacity battery I got from e-bay, I can say so far it's performing great. The phone is bulkier now, but it can still fit in the original case that T-Mobile sent with the phone, although barely.
I may start making a lot of voip calls over wi-fi, so can't do without a high capacity battery.
"Yoobao Motorola Droid X2 Extended Battery Door 2600mah" from Ebay. Anyone tried it?
Has anyone here tried this yet? How is it?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Yoobao-Moto...S_Batteries&hash=item19c6481d6b#ht_500wt_1413
I understand why people want extended batteries, but that just looks ridiculous.
I think im gonna order one of these today
Buddy of mine has a Seidio extended battery for his Evo 4G. He says it's great. Here's one for the X/X2 and the better priced one.
Never even heard of Yoobao. So I think I'm going Seidio.
I had a Mugen Power extended battery for my HTC HD2 and couldn't live without it.
When I considered one for my X2, I looked at the ones offered by Seidio, Yoobao, Gorilla Gadgets, Mugen Power and generic eBay.
Yoobao and Gorilla Gadget reviews were the most positive; experiences with Seidio and the generic eBay batteries were all over the board and the Mugen Power batteries were just too expensive.
I ended up purchasing a Yoobao battery (which comes with a grey battery cover) - that does not match the phone - a plug-in charger and a rubberized case which fits the X2 with the extended battery/cover in place. Total tab with priority shipping was somewhere between $40 and $50, if memory serves.
I've been using this combo for about a month now and am generally pleased. Since I'm rarely on the same ROM for more than a week, battery life is hard to consistently rate. Today, for example, I'm going on 7 hours of steady texting, email syncing, alternating 3g/wifi use, 'net surfing, tinkering with Root Explorer/Text Editor, and playing music on PowerAMP -- remaining battery power is at 54%.
All the extended batteries in this class make the phone huge. Make no mistake, the photos you see are spot on. Some people like the increased purchase on the phone, some people bemoan the loss of that sleek, sexy chassis. It's a personal decision, to be sure.
At any rate, you'll need to calibrate your battery reader to get anything close to an accurate battery power reading. If you aren't rooted, I don't know how you would do this. If you are, you can simply erase batterystats.bin in your system folder, go into bootstrap recovery or use an app that does it for you.
I also alternate between more standard-sized BH5X and BH6X batteries. With these, I need to carry a spare, which invariably gets used sometime at the midpoint of the day. The greatest upside with these batteries, obviously, is in the case selection. I have 3 cases that I rotate, as my mood sees fit. For power users, this is a viable alternative to carrying around a slump block.

Yup, exactly what I thought ...
People are under the mistaken impression that Mugen Power batteries are Japanese, so the cells used are superior to the Chinese batteries. That is not correct. Mugen Power uses Chinese batteries, just like everyone else.
Based on my research, all of the major resellers use Chinese battery manufacturers. Quality control for stock Motorola, Yoobao and a few others tends to be much higher, so the possibility of getting a bum battery is concomitantly lower.

went to the real mugen power website, checked on the extended battery, it is out of stock, you can order but wont receive until november
ordered my seidio extended battery for the photon 4g it will arrive tomorrow. there are a few counterfeit mugen websites on the web so be careful, mugen power batteries are quite good.
as for cheapo chinese batteries you get what you pay for, many chinese batteries are labeled with exaggerated claims as to their mah rating, several of these batteries have been found to be no larger than the standard ones containing weights to make them feel authentic, never trust chinese knockoff batteries, some will also damage your device and some have been known to catch fire, saving a few bucks on a cheap chinese battery that saves you a few bucks today and ends up costing you your device.......suddenly not soo cheap anymore you know the old saying....you get what you pay for
When I first saw this post, I was all over it until I saw the extended door. I do not want any battery (or accessory for that matter) that adds size or weight to the device. With that said, for my and other members knowledge, will it fit in car dock?

They are awaiting shipping of the batteries so anyone who orders them from the genuine mugenpower site will not see their product shipped until some time in november.

I find extended batteries dont add that much bulk and actually make the evo and now my photon easier to handle, most people who try an extended battery for a week tend to keep them and love them, you'll just have to find a diffferent case to carry your phone in, easily solved at best buy or other stores that sell generic cell phone cases for phones with larger screens. As noted before, this battery is extremely light compared to the evo's extended battery, I was surprised really. As for a car dock? not sure if the extended would work or not, but you could always use the regular battery for that purpose and swap out the extended when not using in the car dock. These batteries WILL get you through a day, people tend to complain about the bulk havent tried one and lets face it, your carrying extra **** now ..........another standard battery or a charger and charging it up throughout the day or in the car, extended batteries free you from that burden. if you dont like it you have 30 days to return it if you buy it from seidio, best buy also sells seidio products so the battery may show up their, the retail packaging at best buy does not bear the seidio name but they carry the seidio extended battery and several of their cases, very fancy packaging, certainly not rocketfish lol.
Hi, I saw this in eBay , will it be of any serious issue if I use this battery with my photon , I just ordered for one , thought it was a good deal coz my battery hardly lasts for 5 hours , thats it. I'm an entrepreneur and I need to make lots of calls and emails . Like 7 hours a day I need to divert my photon's number to my BB coz the fone lasts literally 5 hours . Any suggestions .,

that battery on ebay is a chinese knockoff, I wouldnt trust it, also look at the back cover, the speaker grill looks like it will obscure sound, I highly recommend the seidio extended battery for the business man who needs extra power, ebay batteries seldom live up to their claims, I have taken some apart to find that they have no more cells or fewer cells and power than a standard battery, some of these can also damage your phone, seidios battery is only 69 dollars, thats twenty bucks more than a genuine standard motorola battery and you get 3500 mah instead of 1600. when it comes to after market batteries I only trust mugen power and seidio ( beware of counterfeit sites imitating mugenpower) the seidio extended fits the phone perfectly, much better speaker grill, had to turn my volume down, mugeenpower batteries are generally good with fit and finish as well. at the official mugen power batteries site you will find that these batteries are currently not in stock, only the counterfeit sites have them "in stock" so heads up if you go with mugen, the official site says you can order but will not be shipped intil november 4th.
The Battery is on its way , I'll buy a mugen itself as u have suggested, I wont use this ebay battery then .,
i bet ur phone case wont fit with that

This is totally legit - there are many mugen fakes out there. I'm posting a lot of news about mugen cuz I'm in touch with their representative. They are quite open for communication so if you have questions, just shoot them a message or add them on Facebook.
mugen claims
According to this web site mugen falls short of it's claims often enough.
http://batteryboss.org/
Just ordered a 3600mah from MUGENBATTERY.com. Hope that is the legit site. Price was $88.00. Anyone know of an app that will let me know how much juice is left in the extended battey? I'm running CM9 Alpha...
Battery circle might help. I've heard problems with the photon not reading battery percentage correctly. That was on the seidio battery tho. It would stay at 1% for like 5hrs. Any issues with the mugen one?

Just got my 3600 Mugen Power extended battery last night. Came 100% charged out of the box. I love this thing and can tell it is quality built. Phone actually feels better in the hand with it as opposed to with stock battery & cover. I'm running CM9 Alpha ICS (not so great with battery consumption) but my phone lasted 12 hours with heavy use. Still need to break it in too (instructions said 4 to 5 100% to 0% runs)!
Also got my battery indicator to calibrate with it as well...
Here is the trick: You must charge the extended battery to 100%, power off device, boot into recovery and then wipe battery stats and reboot phone. Leave the phone on until the battery drains totally dead and the phone shuts off automatically because of it. After this charge the phone back to 100% without removing it from the charger (took 4 hours for me) and enjoy, you're now calibrated to the extended battery.
Nice I just got the trexcell one off Amazon. Reviews were good. If it is crap then at least it was cheap lol. I over night it. Should be here tomorrow
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
You said it actually feels better in hand, I'm sure the added weight has to do with that. What about pocket size though? Is it a pain to get in and out of a pair of jeans? Just flashed CM 7.2 and I'm doing the whole calibrate thing. I hope what you detailed works, good thing I've got all day to play with it and run it down from 100% to 0 before I have to go out with it tomorrow.
Hey,
I made a thread yesterday about the possibility of me getting a 3500mah extended battery. But there were lots of mixed reviews (mostly about ebay batteries not being the mAh advertised).
Now i'm thinking should I get one of those extremely cheap 1600mAh batteries £2.99 (like this one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/High-Qual...ultDomain_3&hash=item43ab4ef97d#ht_2079wt_805) and swaping it out with the original when it gets low (even if it is only 1000mAh) or should I fork out a bit more cash and go for a £12 (4x the price) 1900mAh Anker
If i'm going to use the battery as a secondary what clear advantages does something like the Anker have and what are you recommendations? and how much more life does the Anker have over stock.
Thanks,
Louis
I would just go with the cheap ebay battery. Its so cheap, you can also buy two if you like.
I also just use them as spare batteries, I got one spare battery now myself, haven't used it though, but its just meant for when the original battery runs out off juice then I can place the spare one in it.
Why don't you just get a GENUINE OEM battery ? I wouldn't even consider getting a slim battery that wasn't OEM to be honest (Unless the OEM version was stupid money).
Downside of an extended battery: Can't fit a protective case on it, unless it's one of the stupidly expensive innocell/seido ones. The ebay 3500/3600mah batteries in general at around 2000-2500 in capacity and cost as little as £5 in the UK.
You can buy at least 10 cheap ebay batteries for same price as an original HTC Evo 3D battery, so even though the capacity is false most times, the one I bought it said in advertisement 1600mah, but when I got the battery it said 1800mah.
I don't know how much capacity it really have, but it will serve good enough as spare battery, its not meant as replacement, its only meant if i run out off juice with the original battery.
http://cgi.ebay.nl/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190652254118
$3,18 that is less then € 2,50
get this for $8.99 plus $2.99 shipping. i have the same one and i get great battery life. theres others on this forum also that cosigned this battery.
http://www.amazon.com/Premium-Extended-Battery-HandHelditems-Universal/dp/B005G6571U
The cheap 1600mah seems to be 1000mah.
Yeah,
I ended up going with the cheap £5.99 3500mAh extended battery from eBay. Even though it's probably not 3500mAh more like 2800mAh (according to tests from XDAers) it's still better than stock and only £5.99.
And I 100% agree with Dexter. Why buy another OEM battery for 10x the price when you can get a cheap one with roughly the same power. It's not there for a replacement just as a backup.
Some even dare to call it an scam that they advertise the mah rating falsely, but you don't pay much for it so I don't consider it as scam.
You just get what you pay for.
i got this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2200mAh-G...316853?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item415dc8d435
turns out to be 1700mah but not bad for what i paid $6 or 4 gbp
