Seido Battery Claims False?

[champ052005]

Hey guys, there seems to be some controversy with the Seido 1750 battery. (Which we kind of knew due to batteryboss.)

There are a ton of speculations and rumors that the battery is actually closer to the stock 1500mAH size compared to 1750.

A rep responded saying that they cannot release any information and to return the battery if you are not interested.


...Just some news I thought I would share. As much as I am not happy to hear this, I was still thinking about buying the battery.

All I see in that thread is a bunch of mud slinging without any hardcore proof.

This whole topic has been discussed extensively time and time again.

I've owned my 1750mAh battery for a year and used it with my Touch Pro 2 before moving to the EVO. It has always served me quite well, and in my usage habits, I do indeed get about 2-3 hours of usage more per day than with my stock battery. I had the same results with my Mogul and Touch Pro.

I don't really care if it's 1300mAh, 1500mAh, 1750mAh, or 3-billion mAh, just so long as the results are in my favor.

I just ordered this battery. Hope i diddnt fall for snake oil.....

Bah. I searched that part number that he had and came up with a whole slew of different values 1300, 1530, 1550, and even 1600, so I doubt it is one part number for each value. Maybe the part number has more to do with the chassis.

The guy might just have and axe to grind.

+1 here... I got the Seidio 1750mAh and am see 2-3 hours of extended play time... It's not much but really all I needed to get me through the day...

Also, just some other tips to keep your phone slim and sexy (No bulky batteries):

I have made it a point to ensure I have a charging solution at all the places I visit most frequestly. A charger at Home (of course), in the car, (of course), at work, and in my girls car... I'm also putting together a travel bag for those spur of the moment roadtrips, weekend getaways and vactions so that I have a "grab and go" solution...

Kit cosist of:
Case for all the goodies
I ordered this one from Amazon:

A/C Charger with USB Port
I used the one that came with the EVO. It's small and sleek.

Car Charger with USB Cable
I used the one for the Palm Pre pictured here. It's small and sleek as well. Cable can be used for both A/C and Car chargers.

USB to MicroUSB Cable
Used the one that came with the Pre Car Charger. Cable can be used for both A/C and Car Charger.

Extra 8gb Memory Card
In case I wanna take some pics while on the road, I have a free 8GBs to use up.

Extra Battery
Using the one from my TP2 for this kit. Since I have the 1750, I'll use the OEM Evo Battery as my daily backup and keep the TP2 Battery in the kit.

I believe I'll be able to keep all these accessories and the phone all i the case with room to spare for cash, cards, license and other smaller effects... This is a nice bundle for those on the go...

The dumbest thing is that people (myself included in the past) will pay $50 for a battery... You can get one for $10 on eBay that will more than serve the purpose of a second battery.

I am from the school of you get what you pay for. Buy cheap stuff, get cheap stuff. Buy more pricey things get better quality.
