this is what they said to me:

Dear iviyth0s,

Apples and oranges. This is high quality Mugen brand. This is better than oem battery and less extensive.
thanks,
ncp

Who's to say the other brand isn't high quality??

I feel compelled to summon all the equipment necessary to challenge their claim, maybe the other one is a dud but justifying the cost because Sprint's price is too high doesn't suddenly make it ok.
And if the other company is high quality (as it also claims) than everyone wins by not patronizing the mugen sellers

I'll kick around the idea of gettin the Li-ion test equipment, then I could be the goto guy for where to get the best battery for the buck :D

like no...just no! $40 for 1800mah?

I complained to them since leading up to that the best extended I found (mind you I'm looking for one that will still fit under the standard battery cover) was a 1700mah for only $10.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=STRK:MEWAX:IT

I messaged them and said I'd buy the 1800mah for $15, but any higher than that is preposterous and I'll be giving good ol' china some business :angry7:


i paid $20 shipped for a decent 2000mAh one from ebay. took 3 weeks to get here from china but it's a bit better than the stock battery.

Yup, I bought one of those too for $10 w/free shipping on ebay. I'm getting around an extra 4 hours out of it compared to the stock battery with no extra bulk added to the phone.

I'm assuming that one doesn't require a different cover too?

Good to hear :), maybe I'll wait for the 2000 to reappear than shove it down that sellers throat :evil4:

Just buy the ebay 2000 mah battery. you won't get the mugen for $15. That guy didn't pay less than $15 for the mugen. If he's selling it cheaper than you can find mugen batteries eleswhere, than you are getting a deal. No point to harass an ebay seller just because....

I'm not harassing the guy just to do so, there's just no reason that he, and more importantly Mugen should charge what they do for what little more they're offering


Edit: I've found it, it goes under the name of Touch Pro 2 battery (since our phones have the same battery form factor)
More about it here:

Here's a buy it now that ends the 24th of April for ~$9.70

Ya I did eventually find it once I learned the secret....but I appreciate the effort and you've been thanked accordingly =D>

Anyway I bought one so I'll give my full review when I get a hold of it for a week
