Extended Battery for Motorola Droid X2 - Motorola Droid X2

There are 2 extended batteries worth checking out in case if you are looking into replacing you original battery and improve your battery life.
If the goal is to replace an original battery, keep the size of the phone and encrease some extra 3-4 hours of battery life I would recommend Mugen Power 1800mAh Extended Battery.
If the goal is to charge your phone once in 3 days with a heavyweight usage, and the bulkyness is not an issue, I would recommend Mugen Power 3600mAh Extended Battery.
Both of these batteries are compatible with Moto Droid X.

Just wanna throw this out there as well. If size isnt an issue and you wanna get a 3600 mAh batt, I *highly* suggest you check out the Tritan Elektra series cases. They're expensive as **** on their website, but I got on one ebay for around $35 bucks (with free shipping <3 amazon prime) and the case is a BEAST! I accidently left my phone on top of my car while filling up for gas, took off down the street and heard a sound as I went over a bump (probably going around 35-40 mph) and watched as my phone fell off the back of my car. Ran back to it, and the only visible damage was a few scuff marks on one of the corners of the skin. Totally worth it.

Case for Topaz with extended battery

Hello,
I've ordered a 3.200mAh Battery from Mugen Power.
Now the Phone thickness increases to 23mm, so the original case doesn't fit.
Is there a case like the original for this brick?
Regards
Wiesel
Sorry for out-of-topic question - but how long does this battery last after full charge? -Thanks.
"PLEASE NOTE THIS BATTERY INCREASES THE THICKNESS OF THE DEVICE TO 23mm.
REPLACEMENT BATTERY COVER IS INCLUDED. "
So you don't have to order another one, isn't it? ^^"
My current stock battery lasts for about 2.5 days. If the above mentioned battery lasts for about a week I would definitely consider buying one and keep the stock battery as a backup
but the price is crazy..$96?!?
I hope somebody can review a yoobao 2200mah.
The battery arrived, few minutes ago.
So I can give some statement in a couple of days.
Mugen is very expensive, but the batteries are high quallity.
I have a three years old 3300mAh in my tytn and have power for over a week
with bt on and mutch sufring on it.
hi,
Can you please let us know the results with your new battery?
sweet I would have loved that much juice in my toy too!! I can't wait for batteries powered by nuclearity! (there are those now, read it in a magazine) They can actually make them much tinier yet safe enough for daily use.. hell, even the older pacemakers were powerd by splitting atoms
BATTERY
The battery will come with a new back cover included
DasWiesel, do you recommend this battery? is it worth the $100? how much longer battery life are you getting out of it as opposed to the original battery? is the extended thickness noticeable by a lot? do you like chocolate chip cookies? oh sorry let's just stick to the subject
isn't it very heavy????
it seems the phone will be like a brick! no?
I should buy one battery...
see here 2200 mAH
it contains back cover too...
please write a review here...
thanks

devices with new batteries are all bricked or are there actually some results on the duration?
I just purchased the Mugen 3200mah battery for my HTC Pure. With the original battery, I'd get 15 hours of moderate use. I'm now on my second charge on the Mugen and it looks like it will run for 30 hours. That means even with heavy use, I can easily get a full work day out of it. Weight with the new battery - 5.4oz (155g). That's up from the original 4.15oz (117g).
Update = after 24 hours, the battery is still going strong and is at 49%. So looks like it will run for more like 2 days in moderate use !
2nd update = After 49 hours, the battery is at 2% and I'm going to recharge it. So, 2 days of moderate use !
As to size and weight, I previously had the AT&T 8125 and 8525 (HTC Wizard and Hermes) and the HTC Pure with the extended battery is about the same size and weight as these. So, I don't have the hardware keyboard those units had, but I do have a phone that will last through a day of even high use (push mail, web use, phone calls, etc.) ! Worth it for me.

i too just purchased the mugen 3200mah and have one question. on their website it say's that it's for the t5353 (touch diamond 2) and does not mention the st6356 (at&t pure). i know they are both the same phone, however, after seeing pictures of the t5353 back cover, it looks like it covers the entire back of the phone from top to bottom, while the st6356 has a back cover that only goes three quarters of the way down. did i just pay $100 for nothing or will the back cover fit just fine?

The back covers do look quite different so I can't say. I bought the mugen for the HTC Pure - http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-3200mAh-MUG...ewItem&pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item45f022bfc9
I recommended this battery to a friend and she got one as well from eBay and loves it. She was going to pitch the phone and buy an iPhone till I got her to upgrade the battery and then installed an Energy Rom for her.
i just saw some more pictures and yes, they are different. so the question now is, is it possible to buy just the mugen back cover for the pure without the battery?
[edit]
never mind that. naked cell phones from ebay offered to sell me the back cover alone for $11.99. but there was no need since mugen power batteries were kind enough to cancel my order. so i purchased the whole thing and received it today. i hope it's as good as everyone claims.
Can somebody post a picture of his Topaz and the mugen some that I can get a expression about the new look?

[Q] Extended OEM Battery or Seidio?

Which one to get? I am really tired of the battery life I am getting from my current batteries. Also where can I find either one of them for a cheaper price than paying out the nose for one?
Extended OEM all the way. It's made by HTC, and you are getting what you will pay for. As for best price, look online, don't think you can find it any cheaper than $50-$60. But you could sell your stock battery for $15-$20 on eBay maybe and recoup some of that money.
+1 definitely go with stock. The Seido battery is junk.
Go for OEM, I got one with my Thunderbolt and have been using it constantly since launch day. The only annoying thing about it is that where the sides jut out, it squeaks a little if you squeeze it, making it feel cheap, but I get over 6 hours of hotspot usage on a single charge.
aftermarket batteries
I got two 1700ma batteries and a battery charger from a place called chichi tech with HTC branding about a month ago (with much apprehension) . All was about 43.00. Don't know about the ma rating butbatteries last about 20% longer than stock. Just my experience fwiw

"Yoobao Motorola Droid X2 Extended Battery Door 2600mah" from Ebay. Anyone tried it?

"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.

Semi slim 2600mah extended battery

See I had you wishing there was one .....
I was thinking why doesn't somone offer a slightly oversized battery for our phones or any phone for that matter. ... I mean you could make it fit with allot thinner back cover and I bet convince just about everyone to convert to an extended battery ...
Instead of doubleing the capacity just add another 800-1000mah that plenty for the average- heavy user to get allot more enjoyable battery life and not have a huge bulky phone.

I agree. Though it seems like I have seen that mah advertised before, but I could be completely wrong. I know that I would purchase it if the extended battery door was in between the stock size and the fat Seidio door. I had the Ebay 3500mah battery and door for my Evo 4G, but rarely ever used it after a couple weeks. For that reason I decided to pass on an extended battery for the 3 D. Personally I'd rather have the ability to use any case I want and carry an extra battery instead having a fat phone with few to none case options. That said, if the bulk was minimal for a reasonably longer battery life then I would probably give it a try.
Swyped from my pimpin PG86100 using XDA Premium, boiiiii!!!
I felt the same way, but have a simple solution- ebay! There are slightly extended batteries available, but they work about the same as the stock battery. Just throw the extra battery in your pocket. Still thinner than an extended battery and door, easy to change, and lasts much longer.
I see it the opposite way. If you are going to bastardize the look of your phone by putting a big wart on the back, might as well really extend it and put a 3500 mAh battery in there. That way if it's going to look like Quasimoto and not even sit on a desk properly any more, might as well last forever. For me, if it requires a new back cover, no thanks.

best extended batteries

hi, i'm looking for extended batteries that come with replacement back cover for motorola photon
can anybody give me input ?
on how the battery perform
and how good the quality of the replacement back cover ?
actually i'm leaning towards seidio because i've used them in may blackberries and they are good.
and also the other option that i found is
either the cheapo ebay stuff (where i'm afraid about the quality of the battery and the quality of the back cover
and also the Mugen power battery (i found the price is too steep for and extended battery)
so please advice
thank you.
I've been using a TREXCELL 3500 battery from AMAZON.Pricing is in the $20-$25 range & this is definitely a solid choice over SEIDIO.
I get a solid 10 hrs of moderate to heavy use & 14-16 hrs. of light to moderate use w/o re-charging.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1526066
No problems with them yet.
Can anyone give a link to a decent external battery charger?

I got 50 Hours with light use on my TREXCELL 3500 mAh =D Favorite battery!
hows the quality of the back cover on trexcell ?
do they feel flimsy ?
I've got both a TREXCELL & INCREDICELL(don't recommend the INCREDICELL).
The battery covers are equal, if not exactly the same.
Care does need to be taken when removing the cover, especially around the kickstand area, as that is the weakest point on the cover due to the contours that are present to accommodate the extended battery thickness.
Not a big deal, or, deal breaker. You can get replacement covers by simply buying an el cheapo extended battery for a few $ on e-Bay, AMAZON, etc.......
SEIDIO will sell the extended battery cover by itself, for $14..95.
You simply just have to call & ask for it, unless SEIDIO has begun listing them on their website.
Anyone ever try the Droid Bionic battery on the Photon? I am thinking about getting it.

hi thanks
this is what i really want
a hyperion battery and a seidio back cover
do they fit ?
why hyperion, cause i've heard good reviews of it on this forum and the seidio battery doesn't get good reviews
and also my friends buy the hyperion battery with the replacement back cover, but thte cover is very bad, he broke the clips within 2 weeks, so i supposed that the seidio back case is supposedly better.
the only question for me now is , are they compatible ?
i mean will the seidio back cover accommodate the hyperion extended battery ?
