Re: Lovin' this new battery

After seeing his video of the size of his 4500mAh battery...
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/htc-touch-...d-battery.html

I decided to go for the Amazon.com: Seidio Innocell 1750mAh Extended Life Battery for Use With HTC Touch Pro 2, HTC Hero (Black): Cell Phones & Accessories, a little better than stock battery and it's same size. I don't got much battery problems lasting through the day, and with this new battery I can make it through 2 days without a charge now. And I got a car charger now too so I can charge it when I use gps. I had gotten battery for gps use but then I got car charger when I got a mount (Yeah I was holding it in hand before but I rarely used it). I'm quite happy with both the car charger/mount (costed my $6) and this battery ($40). Its a bit more than I would have wanted to spend but oh well, cost of being on sero plan will make up for it in 1-2 months anyways

Re: Lovin' this new battery

I got 2 of the verizon batteries (and two more later) and they work VERY well.

but it really started to annoy me how much thicker it was. not so much in my pocket (no big deal) but it meant all my cradles no longer worked. that was really getting annoying.

SO I wanted to go back to the thin battery and I found a viable compromise between the stock batter and the thick extended battery.

I got a couple ChiChiTech 1900mah (real ones not the fakes) batteries that fit behind the STOCK casing IE not thicker.

they work WONDERFULLY. not quite as long a life as the extended battery (its 150mah short of that but still 400mah more than the stock battery) but really darned close. more than close enough for me.

I easily get through a full day even of really heavy usage without a problem.

I did 2.5 hours of GPS and otherwise decent usage and still have 50% on the battery when I plugged it in at night.

Very impressed. so if you want more power but not thicker order a chichitech battery. I got 2 batteries and an external charger (a nice one actually) for $35 on amazon.

Just make sure its the "real deal" and not a fake (there are a lot of chichitech fakes floating around) on amazon their seller name IS chichitech.

Amazon.com: CHICHITEC Sprint HTC EVO 4G 2x1900 mAh Battery Slim Design Longer life than OEM+Wall Travel Dock USB Charger also for EVO Shift 4G,Verizon Droid Incredible 2, Touch Pro2, myTouch Slide, Google DesireZ, G2 by CHICHITEC ONLY BEWARE KNOCKOFF

They also have just a single battery for $18 if you add something else to get over $25 it ships free.

Good deal. I am very pleased with them.

I also bought two of the 1900mah batteries by chichitech. Easily get 15 hours with moderate useage. And it fits behind the stock battery door even though it seems 2-3 millimeters thicker than the stock battery.
