ElectraSpan Extended Battery - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories

Just curious if anyone has bought this battery..
http://www.boxwave.com/products/hig...acity-extended-battery-htc-blue-angel_460.htm
It shows it for sale for $.99 hah...that cant be right..anyone willing to give it a try?

well i just took the plunge and ordered 2, at that price i figured why not right? total is 10.43, shipping was overpriced obviously but whatever. Maybe they just cant get rid of the damn things and thats why they were so cheap (also they arent exactly big batteries). Seems our beloved PDA2k is being forgotten

so i got them today. They're OK, twice as thick as normal batteries, hence the 200% normal battery life, it hangs out a bit on the bottom, and the little push up clip is still what holds it in. Havent stress tested it yet. Made in China, for the money could be worth it. OH before i forget, if you have a normal cradle, itll push the BA into an awkward position but it doesnt seem to do any harm.

hi seargent007. is it possible to post pics with the battery on the BA? you say that it hangs out a bit on the bottom. how much? is it safe or it could fall down? could the weight of the battery make harm to the clip?

2400 battery ? from china
after 2 weeks old one <ph26b p/n 35H00032-00 - (new one is ph26bxl -26b/26e)> battery went in the local recycling facilities bin.
don't have cradle, have aussy usb 3in1 sync/home charge/car charge -under 15£ , the battery was under15£ both with P&P !
[incedently have U tried the special rom ugrade 1.2 <via cradle? - works?>]
_d.b_ jus seein' works/not

So the battery is slim enough to fit in the craddle? I almost decided to buy two or three pieces...It's awful, shipping to Bulgaria costs 10$ but the battery only costs 1$

well i just orderd one wish me luck, though i have to wait like 10 days to get to were i am lol

ill post pics when i get home in a few hours.

I also ordered one battery and I hope I'll receive it in 2-3 weeks. But I'll be glad to see pics of the battery and soon results with it

ElectraSpan Extended battery pictures
As promise here are the pictures enjoy

I got mine today but it's kinda weird..I charged it until the orange light changed to green, and left it for a couple of hours, and after that when I looked at the status it was at 97% already? In comparison the old battery (1490 mAh) needed about 7-8 hours to go down with 3% :/ Has anyone got problem like this or this is a reaction because it was charged for the first time?
After all it is not so fat and you can use it with your craddle and the default leather case

At first I had the same problem but it seems the battery life has gotten longer since i've been using it.

Thanks for the pics rafyvitto - I just ordered two myself (i guess I didn't need two, but it is nice since they are cheap). Its good to know it fits in the cradle, since that is all I have now (my wall adapter broke)..

I wonder how long these batteries have been sitting...

Things are normal now, I can say but it I don't find any big difference between the stock battery and this extended. With quite a lot of working with the ba, chatting and with about 20 minutes per day calls the battery lasts 3 days and a half which is not too bad For the price it is quite good But I'll think about buying a new one - this time 3200 or 3600 mAh despite of the sizes and weight

I too don't notice any significant difference over the stock battery. Now, two extra batteries for $2 (or $10 including shipping) isn't bad, but I am bummed that they don't last longer..

I don't notice a difference either.. It's possible these are just crappy batteries. The engrish on the back might be an indicator of that.

What is the biggest standard size battery for the Blackstone?

I found one on eBay with 1700 mAh are there bigger ones??
http://cgi.ebay.de/Power-Akku-f-HTC-Touch-HD-Pro-HD-Blackstone-1700mAh_W0QQitemZ390061743029QQcmdZViewItemQQptZDE_PDA_Zubehör_KM?hash=item5ad17ddbb5&_trksid=p4634.c0.m14.l1262&_trkparms=%7C301%3A1%7C293%3A2%7C294%3A30
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!

[Q] Any one tested G1 1700mah battery?

Old battery is running out of juice. Recently found some 1700mah drea160 g1 battery on ebay. Any one tested them yet?
What happen to the ecell 1500mah battery? couldn't find it anymore.
By the way, I'm looking for a standard battery (fits in original housing), please reply if you have something to share. Thanks
Don't know if its the same battery i bought about half a year ago at ebay germany but i had no luck with it.
It was labeled as 1700 mah battery... now, 7 month later the battery has power for about 6 hours in standby (think about 500mah rest capacity)
Even in the first months the battery had not more power than the original htc 1150mah battery, the standby time was about the same.
I recommend not to buy it... better get one or two cheaper standard capacity batteries
Sent from my T-Mobile G1 using XDA App
well I just ordered mine off ebay, total came to a lil over 5 bucks.
Im guessing its not gonna pan out, but hopin it'll be at least as good as stock, and if its either of those, im getting my money back and keeping the battery. So tis a win for me no matter what.
I'll do review.

There's a flood of standard capacity battery on ebay that I can't tell which is good and which is bad. I'm just wishing to get one that will last slightly longer than stock or as long as stock. Guess I will have to look around for a bit.

Thanks, hopefully it's not one of those that do great for the first few days and degrade quickly afterward.
well just recieved my battery, its fake, and came with a sticker stating 2500mah! Lmao. same size as stock. But im gonna try it out for a week, and as long as it works better than my old battery, i'll give positive feedback and not request my money back.
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.27003
This battery works great for me, have had it a few weeks now, has easily doubled my battery life and standby time is crazy it never has come close to dying while on standby.
The one I received is a little different than the one pictured, my backplate has just the camera recessed and not the whole area around it. So the back is even throughout.

Guys,
I found a 1700mah battery on ebay (restriction on new users stops me from providing the link, but it's from Seller austintexwireless ( 18439 sales))
Do you think it's fake at 1.60$?...
I am looking to buy a bigger battery, but I do not want the extended packs with thick back covers, so would prefer one that fits the original slot.
Any advice?

Here you go http://cell-phones.shop.ebay.com/i....kw=&_osacat=20336&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313
I ordered three batteries off ebay. Two of them were delivered and I'm waiting for the last one. One of the batteries is 1050 Mah and the other is 1150. They both hold equally with a little edge for the 1150 one. I'm really sceptic that in this thickness the battery could have a larger capacity than the stock one. This is a limitation of the Li-Ion technology. However, both of those batteries are much better than the swollen stock one after 1,5 years of use and do a great job. One more thing. The 1050 one was from HongKong and cost me about $3 and the bigger one was from UK and cost me about 7-8$, but was delivered much much faster. I think that you can't go wrong with a battery for 3-4$ but I recommend getting two batteries and an external charger - it's a must have for power users. That's it.
My ANDIDA 1600mAh battery begins to show its age (used to last at least 1-day of use, sometimes 2-day if use is light, now barely make it over a whole day) after 11-month of use. So I got a new 1700mAh (by SCUD) battery.
I shall report back how it performs after a few days of use...
ANDIDA 1600mAh
SCUD 1700mAh
P.S. They both weigh 24g.
A quick search finds that lithium ion's specific energy density ranges from 150 to 250 W·h/kg. If we take the highest specific energy density, so 24 / 1000 * 250 = 6W·h (WHr). Divide 6W·h by 3.7V * 1000 = 1621mAh.
So it's THEORETICALLY possible that these batteries can contain 1600-1700mAh of juice. Whether they can actually store as much is, well, another matter.
Of course, the above calculations haven't taken into consideration of the weight of the housing and the circuitry so the figures should be a bit off.
P.P.S. I remember the original battery (1150mAh) weighed a few grams more through.

that pictures even says 2500 mah, I wouldn't trust it.
so, after a few days of use, it isn't as good as the andida when it was new. the andida surely lasted me at least 1-day of uses (unless i'm using gps the whole time, which drains the battery in a few short hours). this one, it lasts a day of moderate use but not much left.
i'm hoping that with more uses, it will be more "warmed up" and last longer.
i'll report back if this happens.
Looks like the SCUD can last 1.5 day of use mostly.

[Q] Whats the best battery?

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?

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.

will these work?

looks like they are starting to hit ebay - though smaller Mah

Just for the battery charger itself is worth it to me. I think I will go for it.

hopefully these don't turn out to be like the evo 3d ones. i bought the same setup and all the batteries were really 1000ma. if you pulled the sticker up it said 1000ma under it. i could get about 3-4 hours out of one.

2-3 batterys and a charger for around 10-12 bucks. You can't expect to get close to the stock battery for that price. 4 hour emergency batteries for that price is well worth it. Had them for my Epic and already ordered for Photon even though I'm not getting the phone till next week, takes a few weeks to get them.
These will work. The problem is that once they charge they discharge from 100% to 50% normally, then the battery dies. How much do you want to bet that the rated mah is nowhere near 1500. I got suckered in. I might as well keep these for emergencies.

Just noticed that I never reported back on that first post. Well the batteries are good enough in a pinch but they certainly drain much faster. I just might try the one that wagonattack just posted.
Only wish I could find a good battery charger for these batteries.
TS
I got some of the ones from Newegg. It is actually sold by a "marketplace" vendor, so not newegg itself- shipped from California, USPS was the only option.
The batteries themselves are almost exact replicas of the original battery so the fit is great. They are flat black on one side and the label on another- so there's no mistaking it for the original. I have a few dud batteries for my HD2 that look exactly like originals so it's annoying if i put one of them in and forget to bring an extra.
The rating is 1700mAh @ 3.7v versus the HF5X's 1650+ @ 3.8- it ends up being pretty much the same number of Watt/Hours. I'll be able to see this weekend if the same on paper equates the same in real life as far as runtime goes.
After a trip this weekend and some normal usage the past few days, the newegg batteries are definitely as good as the original battery. It's definitely not a one or two hour battery, all day usage from 9-5 with over 60% left, similar to the normal battery.
Again- the only annoying thing is that they don't come with an external charger... but oh well.

I just recieved this in the mail today and am charging them as I write this. Seemed like a fair price for what I hope are quality batteries. If they last a year I'll feel like I got my money's worth.
I'll post updates on their longevity compared to the stock battery once I go through a cycle or two.

I got this as well and it's on its way. I hope to simply rotate them well enough that I get good longevity between the three (the two from this purchase and the OEM one).
i also got them they seem to work just fine
I trust that these batteries will work just as well as the OEM one...in terms of both battery life and overall longevity. Based mostly on the fact it's a US based company.
Unlike those HK ones...that sell for cheaper...but they're lucky to even hold a normal charge for like 3 months. Basically, we get what we pay for...more often than not.
I just ordered this off of Amazon. I figured for the low price it was worth the risk.
I've had them since Note Day #1 (2/17) and they are def worth the money. I just can't say how long they hold a charge, since I haven't kept track yet. My guess is that they don't last quite as long as an oem batt. But they don't seem horrendous and 2 batts and a charger to your door for about $30 is hard to not be happy with.

I had an issue with mine today...
Left a battery on the charger overnight and got up and the light showing it was still charging the next morning....Tried another battery and over 4 hours later, the same thing happened...Put another battery in there, and within an hour (battery wasn't empty), it turned blue letting me know charge was complete (and phone showed 100%).
Got another one in there now and it's been there for about 2 hours, and the light shows it's still charging.
Is there a charger out there that has a display so you can tell what's going on??

you cant buy cheap quality batteries and expect the performance of quality batteries it just wont happen, thats why you need 3 instead of 1

I think the charger is the issue...not the batteries...
Take a look at this calculator:
http://www.csgnetwork.com/batterychgcalc.html
The charger this comes with outputs DC4.2V~350mA~±50mA. Using the link to the calculator above, you should expect a 2600mAh battery to fully charge with this charger in about 9 HOURS!!
I'll post updates as I find out more.

i use this one but havent tried it with the note battery since i had the iPhone but let me find it and see if the battery fits and how it charges. i know its adjustable and charges most cell batteries but the note battery is kind of big

That charger charges at 550MA(MAX). That should take 5.37 hours at best. Still a far cry from the 1000mA that the stock charger uses.

Thanks!!!
Sorry..Duplicate!!!

consider the fact that you should not drain a bettery beyond 25% or you will shorten the life of it because the work to hard and overheat beyond that so your talking about 75% of 5.37 hours = 4.0275 hours and i dont think thats a big issue unless your battery doesnt make it 4 hours and trickle charge is better on a battery??

I was under the impression (maybe mistakenly!!) that for the first few charge cycles of a battery, you wanted to fully discharge and charge it...then after that...you can you can go back to the 75% rule.
At least that's the way it is with Lithium Poly Batteries.
Am I wrong?
Please Help
I guess this thread is dead?
It would be nice to get an update from those who bought these batteries 8, 10 or 12 months ago... to see how they held up.
I've been researching Hyperion and I've found quite mixed reviews... Several places I found photos (obviously can't be truly verified) of Hyperion batteries with the labels peeled back to reveal the metal shells which appeared to be stamped/marked (presumably by the ORIGINAL manufacturer) with different product ID codes, serial #s, as well as significantly lower mAh ratings than Hyperion's outer sticker.
I'm curious if any of those who started this thread still have their batteries... How have they held up? Are they still good?
Does anyone still have one of these batteries that they're no longer using? Would you be willing to try stripping back the label to check to see what you find under it...
I do believe that there probably are some companies that actually do make good, less expensive alternatives. But the scammers need to be exposed...
