How to charge 2 batteries at once (what to buy)
 
i run through 3 batteries a day on average when i cant charge my phone. i tried to look on ebay but i couldnt figure it out. what would i need to buy to charge 2 batteries outside of the phone at once? do i really have to buy 2 of those battery only chargers or is there something that can do 2 at once?

1. extra battery

2. cradle (charges phone + battery)

3. External Battery hub (equal to 2 batteries and also a universal USB device, can use for future HTC devices)

i have 3 batteries 1 in the phone and 2 extra. i want to be able to just charge one normally in the phone then have an external device that just charges the 2 extra batteries. so what would i need to just charge the 2 batteries at once?

Just curious, but what do you do with your phone that you're using the equivalent of 3 batteries per day? Most people here that posted in the battery usage thread are getting at least a full day's use with a full charge, some 2+ days, so for you to be going through 3 batteries in a day must be extremely heavy usage.

Re: How to charge 2 batteries at once (what to buy)
 
that only charges one at a time. i guess i will just go with one at a time or buy 2..

They're fairly cheap and it uses straight AC input - I don't know how quickly it charges one battery. Assuming it charges faster than you're draining, you're good with either option.

Good luck.

These charge batteries in about 10-15 hrs. These are very slow charges and cheaply made..I bought two for a HTC diamond, one broke in the first week it just came apart. The second one i still have and charges batteries in as i stated about 10-15 hrs. Last it took along time because it came from Hong Kong.

Thanks for the motivation to look for a new job! I'm currently seeking one where I can sit and smell paint dry (wouldn't want to watch it, since I'll be busy staring at my new TP2!)

First off, that cradle is for a TP1...not TP2. And bear in mind that Sprint/Verizon TP2's have an offset USB (due to the headphone jack) ...I have yet to see a cradle for those on ebay or anywhere else at this time.

So did anyone get this and/or try it? I'm on the fence and am waiting for some feedback. I found another of what looks to be the same thing, except they ship from United States.http://cgi.ebay.com/USB-Wall-Battery...item1c0bfb24e8
