My results and I've had this battery since last November. May be time for a new one? I used it a lot today. Constantly.

Default Generic Battery

I have this same battery. I've had it since May 2012. It took me about 4-6 charge cycles to reach optimal capacity. And I always discharged to <=10%, than charged on a wall dock charger to 100% uninterrupted.
It is now October 2012, and the battery maybe lasts 4 hours longer than the stock LG battery. It used to last twice as long.
These batteries are GENERIC CRAP, but for the price I suppose they are worth it over paying higher prices for an OEM battery, and even than, you need to make sure it's not a fake rip-off with an LG OEM skin on it.
Just my two cents on these generic batteries.

Bought my Anker 2800mAh battery back in April of 2012. When I first got the battery, it was pulling close to 44 hours of use before having to be recharged. I was floored with the amount of uptime. 6 Months later, I am now getting 24-32 hours of charge out of the battery. Still a FAR cry from the stock battery that I got, which if I got 12 hours of use it'd be a miracle. I'm VERY pleased with my purchase.

The 3500mAh battery which I purchased last month isn't lasting as long as it used to. I can't really complain since I only paid $7.00 for it. I'm thinking about buying a new OEM battery, considering the only reason I bought the extended battery was because I had over 500 cycles on my stock battery.

I bought two of these just over two weeks ago and one doesn't hold a charge at all anymore and the other lasts 4 hours max. Think I got screwed lol, no word from the seller I bought them from on Ebay >:-<

I got mine off amazon and it does still work. I buy almost all my electronic accessories from the seller EforCity. They always take care of me. I have gotten stuff that did not work and they immediately sent a replacement free of charge and no returning of broken one. Also, once the input wire for my FM transmitter broke a month after i received it, and they replaced it as well. Great seller, I always give them 5 Star. Want links?
