reflash the RUU at 100% battery, and see if you still have problems
I'd rather get a powerskin with an external battery that I can choose to use or not(or remove)... but the powerskin won't be as efficient as you need to convert from 4.2V->5V(USB) back to 4.2V

How I am using my phone is like this, pick up off charger phone has full charge, go to work, listen to music from phone, once I arrive at work I put it into airplane mode (this I believe kill's all the radio's ) then use the phone as an mp3 player every once and a while waking up the screen to pause etc. the battery is the original that came with the phone I got this phone like on the 2nd day it was available from T mobile. I am sure the battery by now should be suffering from constant use. I have the full version of juice defender and I have that killing everything I can think of to save power.
I can't remember the name of the ics rom I have on it now but I did install the new graphics driver as well. the phone is rooted ,s-off and has super cid.
I am waiting for a newer stable ics rom with jellybean hopefully with a kernel that I can play around with under clocking.
With my current financial situation i can't afford to make a mistake on this purchase so I am being extra paranoid about checking all my options, thank you for your suggestion.

Haven't used that particular battery, but used mugen with g2 and didn't notice much of a difference. It was 1800 instead of 1200

hello mate! i would suggest getting rid of sense as much as possible there are about at least 3 senseless roms out there,or at least the launcher, it uses to much resource with all the pretty animations and widgets! but there is something wrong with you phone somehow, i get up in the morning around 8 and go to work with my phone fully charged, listen music in the car for about 40 mnts until i get to work! after things settle down i watch at least 3 50 minutes video on netflix, youtube, play listen to music again, i'm on fb, instagram, skype chatting with some friends outside the country, texting and a little more, back to listen to music on my way back home, by 6 o'clock i'm with 30% or so! i'm running energy stock look rom, tweaked with ultrasmooth rosie, and the only widget i have running is the clock and music with 3 home screens! good luck

batteries like those usually are a completely rip-off, so watch out!

Mugen is not a rip off dude.

if you really can, try to reflash the RUU(charge your phone to 100% first).... this resets your phone entirely (radio, ROM, kernel)
I had that battery problem when I got my phone from someone else: less than 8 hours of uptime even without much screen-on use... I installed the Energy ROM and faux kernel, didn't fix it
now, after reflashing RUU, then installing Energy ROM and faux, my battery is better than before... 15 hours uptime with 1-2 hours use...
if I don't use it and keep it on standby-idle, i'm sure it,ll stretch more than 2 days
(55%, only about 15 minutes of screen-on use, data on, autosync on)

I don't understand what flashing the RUU means. I will look around on the forums to learn what that means, or if you would tell me I would appreciate it.

Just buy this http://www.amazon.com/Anker-1900mAh...345472451&sr=1-3&keywords=1900mah+anker+amaze
2 1900 mah batteries with an external charger, charge the spare and your phone every night, put the spare in when the battery dies.. MOST of us have these batteries, they are a little higher capacity than stock- the ONLY issue I have read and experienced, the first 10% goes quickly.. but overall it always outlasts the stock battery.
Plus, that is $30 for those batteries, rather than $100 for the one you posted.
Plus stalk the posts I make, I've posted plenty of ways to increase battery life.. and if you can figure out what paperwastage was saying(hint:look at the bible posted in my signature for EVERYTHING you need to know), it will make a big difference. Plus, if you are in airplane mode while at work and have big drain, that means some app is running rampant in the background, keeping your phone from "deep sleep". Get an app called betterbatterystats(paid on market, free if you find it on XDA, but worth the money) and after a days use(BEFORE you plug in or switch batteries), look at the top apps listed when you select "partial wakelock" and "since unplugged"- whatever the top apps are are the ones keeping your phone awake all the time.. either change the settings of those apps, or remove them if you don't NEED them as that means they are poorly written.
Without getting super technical and by stalking my threads, the bible in my signature, and using betterbatterystats, you MAY not need new batteries anyways.. but having a spare fully charged battery gives you a freedom that you really deserve anyways.

You can buy extended batteries and multiples of them with a charger. You can also buy external battery packs/chargers (amazon search for Anker Astro). They are a bulkier solution but versatile as in they can charge almost anything that takes a usb plug.

Was being cheap and trying to wait for price to drop but has stayed the same. Now $30 doesnt seem so bad
