Re: Need a spare OEM battery? $22.99

My bet (and I mean that literally, since I ordered one) is that the 1350 mha is a typo, and it really is an OEM 1340 mha battery. I've seen reviews of the phone that state it has a 1350mha battery, too, so it's a fairly common error. If it isn't an OEM battery, the seller is deliberately misrepresenting the product-- and since he has a pretty high feedback rating, that doesn't likely.

FWIW, I have a spare battery that I bought directly from HTC (that has a slightly different part number than the battery that came with the phone, BTW), and it cost almost exactly double what this ebay seller is asking.

Re: Need a spare OEM battery? $22.99

I almost bought the cradle/battery yesterday but couldn't use the Live/eBay 25% off since they accept PayPal, but through a 3rd party checkout system.

Re: Need a spare OEM battery? $22.99

I contacted the seller and they assured me that this battery will charge in the phone. I guess I will find out soon enough but they responded immediately to my question.

sorry how do they charge then if you cant charge them in the phone. are you using a docking station? Also, did you purchase them from the same seller that is on ebay and we are talking about? thanks.

i picked up this one (discussed here) and have been pleased, though that one looks smaller which would be nice.

Re: Need a spare OEM battery? $22.99

I'm gaining confidence that the batteries being sold are, indeed, the 1340 mha OEM. Mine has shipped and here's the page on them from the shipper's web website:

How are you going to charge it? While in the phone or do you have a separate charger?

Re: Need a spare OEM battery? $22.99

Yeah I ordered mine an hour before I posted this, it sounds pretty legit to me, and I agree that it might be a typo. I'll post my results immediately once I receive the battery.
