Original Extended Battery for the Vogue

Hi,
I came across this battery, does anyone know how it compares with the standard battery? I want to know about the size and battery life.

Looks like it would last about 50% longer then the 1100mAh that the touch comes with. I've seen 2200mAh batteries that last twice as long on ebay for alot cheaper than that but you know that ole saying (You get what you pay for).

In my opinion, batteries are the luck of the draw. I've bought them from ebay and have had good and bad luck, i've bought them from the sprint store and have had the same good and bad luck.

The only problem with those batteries is that you have to replace the back to accomodate it (most come with a new back) and that usually means that if your using a hard skin or case, it no longer fits.

Hey do a search on here for other threads on this. I posted a few links to other vendors with this same OEM HTC extended battery and cover. You can buy this exact one cheaper from the Official UTStarCom accessories website. Telus has it listed as comming soon in their accessories.

The thing you have to consider is the quality. Those others may be cheaper, but do they include mofset chip(s) to stablize and stop charging the battery when it's full and keep it from over heating or blowing up in your device? Where do their cells come from, how long will it really last? :violent2:

Some of that is covered on other threads. And some really good information about li-ion myths..

Its cheaper here http://www.buywirelessnow.com/smartw...cessory/298685 It works better like what you would expect from a bigger battery. Your original case won't fit anymore. There are lots of cases but I found this one http://swissmobility.swissmobilityst...lity_commander to fit perfect.
