Question Seidio battery opinion?

Very interested in seeing just how bulky/heavy this battery is and if it provides as much power as they're advertising.

I would NOT trust Seido AT ALL after all the battery lies they have already been caught up in. Search around to see for yourself.

Default Innocell 3500

The 3500 battery is physically about .030 inches taller than the Verizon 2150. The backing from the 2150 will not work with the new 3500. The new cover comes with the 3500. It is sweet and has good finger protection for the camera lens (preventing normal finger contact with the lens. I got the wall charger, and 2 of these batteries. For the road warrior time it is great. The charger also allows both phone and separate battery to charge simultaneously. The charger also comes with another USB power cord similar to the one shipped with the incredible w/o the wall plug. Great if you have the car lighter adapter that allows you to plug in a USB device and have it run and charge from inside the car while traveling.

I'm using the product pretty heavily and trying to pay attention to the reviews software that drains battery power. I ran for approximately 31 hours the 1st time out before it told me I needed to plug the phone in for a charge. I will try to improve this.

What is the size difference of the 2150 and 3500 cover?

For the battery, did you mean .30, since .03 seems to small for such a big mAh difference?

Default Reporting power usage 3500 MaH and Dimensions

Just sent back the 2150 yesterday and really we are talking about .030 inches. A very slight difference. I could get 3 of the 4 sides of the back cover for the 2150 to come down on the 3500 but you could see there was some strain. If the difference was .300 that would have been totally impossible. Using a caliper the height of the cover when measured on a flat surface is .591. The mating surface when measured on a flat surface is .168 = .759 total assembled height

3500 Mah thickness .395. I would need someone with a 2150 to measure the thickness of it to complete the comparison.

The phone finally threw up the I need to charge it meaning 15% or less battery remaining according to what it displays. The screen is still showing 2 of the 10 bars at an up time of 60:50:03 and an awake time of 9:55 It is still going as I am typing.
Cell Standby 37%
Phone idle 29%
Android system 23%
Display 7%
Voice Calls 4%

I'm not going to run it until it is 0 but I was wanting to hold out for 1 bar. I guess I've seen what I wanted to see.

Default 3500 Mah performance Awesome!

Completed the testing of the 3500 Mah down to 4% of remaining power Watched 4 full length movies each over 2 hours. People who take long flights Get ready for fun. Phone at 4% remaining = 1 bar of 10 on battery screen.
Uptime 26 hours 45 min.
Awake time 13 hours 18 min Based on this a single battery would allow only 1 battery to be used for an international flight from Chicago to Hong Kong and still have plenty of battery left to get to a charger. The bad part is this Verizon phone will not work in HK or China. Different frequency from what I have been reading.

Cell Standby 23%
Android System 21%
Display 17%
Phone Idle 12%
Bluetooth 11%
Wi-Fi 10%
Mediaserver 4%
Voice Calls 2%

Rating "Best Battery for the HTC Incredible Power User" A+

Default I've had it from day 1

I pre-ordered mine and have been running it since 6-24 and I can tell you IMHO, it is everything I had hoped for. I can now get through a day with extensive use and not even wonder or worry about the charge... AND even make it through the next day too if I were to forget to charge at night.

I have push mail, listen to streamed music all day and just generally use my phone a LOT.

The battery is a winner for the DINC, just as it was for my xv6800
