HTC Branded 2150 mAh Battery??

BillJr106 · #1 (**permalink**) 06-17-2010, 12:11 PM

I have seen one for the Incredible, as well as the TP2. I was wondering if anyone knows if these are compatible with our phones or if an EVO specific one is in the pipes. I also saw that the 2150mah battery was one of the few batteries on Battery Boss to get the true mah rating they advertised. Personally, I would love to stick with a stock battery size, but if I have to ugly this thing up a little to make it EXTREMELY useful ( currently, I would only say it is useful, since full use of the device will kill it in an hour or 2 ).

Anyway just asking the question and adding my two cents.

if it fits and is the normal size then it will work

LOL, the site claims you have to buy a new battery back, which means if that's true it won't be compatible (the back door that is) with the back of the Evo. Plus, they're SELLING the back of the battery door for an additional $17.95 (+shipping and tax I assume).

The cojones on these people. I mean really sell us a battery, but don't charge and additional $18 just for the door.

You could just use a silicone case and some rubber bands....

Somehow I knew that...I'd rather just make a few tweaks and charge overnight. Even my 16 year old daughter, who treats phones like rented mules, is getting a full day from the stock battery. I'd take more power in the same package, but it ain't worth walking around with a tumor on your EVO.

I dont think it comes in sizes. I believe its only stock and jumbo. That would require "slightly larger than stock but not quite a medium". That would be an ideal size for all those that refuse to do the 3500.

But keep in mine the 3500 mah battery was rated somewhere around 40% if I remember correctly... whereas the 2150 HTC battery was rated at 99-100%

Which means the 2150mah battery actually holds more power than the 3500mah since the 3500 mah battery was only getting rated around 1800-1950mah according to battery boss
