Extended Battery

[h4waii]

Well, I've gone ahead and pulled the trigger on an extended battery and back cover for my S710 since I got it used and the battery is half way after a full day usage and I need more since I'm not always near a charger for a few days - though I am happy it can charge via miniUSB since most people have one for their digital cameras.

So I shall update once I receive it and we shall see truly how uncomfortable it will be with the larger battery door. And it was only $25 shipped on eBay. 2250mAh of goodness will soon be arriving.

:D

you mind putting up some pictures of how it looks with the extended battery? side views, and comparisons with the orgiinal side by side shots if possible. :D

oh and what kind use do you use it for, do you have bluetooth on, wifi on? or both off? etc.

I have mine already a couple of days. By mistake they send me the wrong lid :), I got the one from the S630. Wow, what a biiiig device that is. I'm happy having a Vox :D

So, they immediately send me another cover, waiting for it now to arrive....

Woah, looks big with the extended battery and cover on it, lol. Hopefully it's still useable. birdibird, when you get your cover - post up some pics, also if you could tell us where you got it, how much and if your new cover still has the rubbery HTC feel to it (when it arrives).

I'll post up some pics of mine when it comes in!

I was wondering how many days of use do you have with those 2250-2300MAh batteries??

I read that someone bought them from megacapacity, others from eBay, others from gpsforless, and others from BoxWave

Can we make list from what of those batteries bought from where, went good and waht went bad?? also advising the other from wich ebayers we should not buy?
Is it allowed by the forum's rules?

Think it would be usufull to everyone

[h4waii]

I bought one from eBay and one from BoxWave. They are both the exact same thing. I also still have mine for sale, used for roughly one week. The only subtle issue with them both - is that the contact pads are recessed too much. I had to pad them with copper in order for the pins on the Vox to reach properly. You can also pull the pins out of the Vox a few mm which will assist.

Thanks H4waii

for your cooperation!

Hello! I use extended battery for about a year. What to say... It gives me a chance not to think bout battery at last one day using Vox (calls, GPRS, music, reading and also playing games). :)
To say, I'm going to buy one more extended battery, because ... I like my Vox :) but such battery can disappear from the market...
