Multi Function Battery Charger? - HTC Rezound

Hello, I've been looking around and I'm trying to find something that will charge my rezound's battery through an external source with out it being plugged into my phone.
So something like this:
http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/bd3-bcsi3htmec-bk.htm
The reason for this is because I have two standard batteries so I can swap a battery out whenever it dies. The problem with this is that I can't keep one charged at all times.
The seidio one looks good but can anyone find one that is cheaper than $30? I don't really care for brand as long as it works.

This one is cheaper.. Even cheaper if you buy used.

The thunderbolt and rezound extended batteries are the same just different colors (I own both phones).

I have the one from Amazon listed above. In the reviews you will see a few people stating their battery did not fit. The charger I received fits the Rezound battery perfectly. I also have two standard batteries and use this at home and in my car to charge both.

Go on vzw website and look for the thurnderbolt standalone charger I have two iof them and they only cost me 4 bucks a pop after discount

Not sure if it'll fit but thunderbolt and rezound are the same type of battery so theoretically it will correct? Well if not, it was only $4 haha, will let you guys know!

Ordered two of these. I got white ones for some reason but who cares, they work. It least it works for my extended battery. Not the fastest however.

ALL the external chargers are slower than hell for some reason.

Does anyone else who bought the seidio multi function battery charger have an issue with it only charging the battery to 85%

Gorilla Gadgets 3400 Mah Extended Battery (with a stockish cover!)

http://gorillagadgets.com/htc-evo-3d-extended-life-battery-3400-mah.html
Looks good! Not like the Seidio cover (yuk). I will post more when I receive mine in the mail and run a comparison.
Not bad for 27.99 if the battery is what its advertised at.
UPDATE 10/3/11
Received a replacement from Gorilla Gadgets due to battery contact issues and a cracking cover...BE WARNED, THE NEW REPLACEMENT IS A "Wedge" COMMON TO THE eBay SPECIALS! THE BATTERY IS ALSO SIGNIFICANTLY LARGER (in size) BUT A STICKER PULL REVEALS 1650x2 = 3300MAH (less than advertised!) NOT HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!
Man I don't like that hump at all!
I still think that the eBay extended battery doors look the best.

Mike! Long time no talk to! I ordered an ebay one for additional comparison. Can't afford nor do I want the Seidio (maybe just the battery)

Glad you hit me up on GTalk bro!
Yea I'm not a fan of the Seidio door or price tag either. The battery though is probably the best extended available. Seidio battery with eBay door would be the setup that I would like.
I didn't use my extended battery for my Evo 4G enough for me to justify buying one for the 3D though. I have 2 Galilio 2000mah ( more like 1300mah) already and 2 Anker 1930mah on the way. I'll just keep a couple extra batteries with me if I ever think I'll be away from a charger long enough to need one. I'm using WTSB 1.3 Rom and get around 20 hours Up and 8 hours Awake with my normal usage. That is more than enough for me 95% of the time..
I have a car charger in each of my 3 vehicles, a wall charger and dock at home, and a wall charger at work. Very rarely do I need more battery life than 1 full charge.

I read that as well but the person didnt back up how they know it was only 2600mah. Only way to tell is to pull stickers or test.
It is ugly, but compared to the "door wedge" from Seidio and the fact that I can put my TPU case on it (with a little modification) its a winner for me. I have the cheapo eBay cover coming as well with the "no chance in hell" 3500mah battery. Pics will follow!
http://www.expansys.com/expansys-extended-battery+back-cover-for-htc-evo-3d-3400-mah-220468/
Just ordered one of these from Expansys UK, it looks exactly the same as the Gorilla, without the branding sticker, I will be interested to see if it is the reported 3400mah especially for £11.99!
I actually like the gorilla backing. It looks better than all I've seen so far. At least the whole thing is not a brick.

Yeah me too, I think its more in keeping with the design of the phone.
I'm hoping maybe I can modify a rugged case to accommodate it like I did with my Defender and HD2.

I just got it this afternoon and I am very happy. The pics are very deceiving as this back cover isnt nearly as big as it appears. I will try to take some pics later and upload. Now to test the battery life. I did a sticker pull and found each battery has a 1700 on it! 1700 X 2 = 3400mAH as advertised. Excellent.

What is the best extended battery for this phone?

I'm looking to buy an extended battery for this phone right now online and curious which is the best and has the most life. Any recommendations would be great.
I think it would be the powerskin. It uses the original battery and a1500 mAh battery. So two batteries total.

I can't see anyone in there right mind needing 6 batteries, multiple cases, battery covers,...ect. Seems a bit overkill in my opinion maybe if you don't like something (case) return it instead of buying a few more?

Powerskin

I was just checking out dmcgrath009 wireless charging thread which is pretty cool, but it got me thinking about all the cases with wireless charging which then lead to a youtube search. This this of course side tracked me from some dude's review of a powermat of the s3 to an iguana farting in a bathtub (best 10 seconds ever) so I checked out powerskin to see if they had something and I found this http://www.power-skin.com/battery-cases/htc/one-x.php a powerskin for the one x+ and x. So it should fit but the dedicated camera button might interfere and if you can't live without a kickstand you're SOL. I personally like my evo without a case, but if you need more juice here's a maybe solution.
Are the dimensions and charge ports in the exact same place? I was gonna buy the seido one but its not even out yet and this one is 30 less I'd much rather get this if I knew for sure that it'd work

I'm pretty sure it should work, but like I said the dedicated camera button might get in the way. The one x and evo have the same dimensions accord to what I've seen, but they do have a return policy if not. I really don't see a need for it since I go all day on meanrom 6.4, but others might want more juice or aren't rooted and would want more juice so I'm just throwing it out there.
Yea I'm completely stock due to not being tech savy, so my battery life isn't great, I'm a pretty heavy user as well
Anyone try this yet? I would definitely buy this if I knew it would fit!!!
Sweet. I'm interested in this. But waiting for someone with a bigger wallet than me to test it first....

Its not about having it. I dont trust it enough to spend $40. If i made i made double the money i do now i probably wouldnt care about $40. Its just my mentality man
I thought the x and x+ use the contact pins on the back to charge the battery. If that's the case, no way it will work with the LTE.

If you look at the pictures you can see it uses the side micro port. There are no pins inside the case. I might bite the bullet and try this.

The seidio version utilizes the pins but not this one.

i compared my EVO Lte to a One X the other nioght when i stopped by frys.. the charging port seems to be in the correct place but the "volume up-down" rocker on the one x seems to sit about a half inch lower... so im not sure it will work without some modification..
For $80 bucks you think they could make the area where the charging port is flush-er, it looks like a 90 degree plug with a cord. I'll pass and see what I can do with my old touchstone.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
This one actually does use the pins in the back I've already seen it. It has two contact pins in the back that connect to the one xs charging plates. The micro USB port is wat charges the battery inside the case.
It will NOT work for the LTE.

the issue is not so much as cheap batteries, but the lack of NFC on the cheap batteries.
Samsung's site has no listings for anything of value beyond GG and S-View covers, no batteries, no cases, no nothing.

The Anker battery seems way to expensive than the past batteries I bought from them for some reason or maybe I'm used to their bundle. 2 batteries and 1 charger for $30 or something like that.
I'm not going for the anker for four reasons:
1. They're made in China, and the Samsung ones are usually Korea (still trying to exhange my Note III for a Korean Model
2. They're uglier than the OEM ones (I carry these in my pocket and swap daily throughout the day, I want them to look decent)
3. They don't include a carrying case (my Note II batteries did, which helps protect the moisture warranty-void stickers from getting wet, which happened to my S3 batteries without the cases (I carry contact cases in the same pocket as batteries at work)
4. They don't have the option to come with that super cool portable battery charger from Samsung or something equivalent. God that looks awesome for on-the-go charging!
SO Samsung, PLEASE RELEASE THE KRAKEN... err.. Batteries. Release the damn batteries already. and soon :fingers-crossed:
