Is there any 'special' features that the ET battery have over the Infuse? If not then I'm grabbing those 2200mAh batteries that doesn't require a new battery cover.

Ebay has it cheaper but shipped from HK at $13

If you guys get that 2200 battery, let us know how it is.

I wouldn't get a generic battery. I try to stick with OEM stuff.

I agree with Korey, just because it says it's 2200mah certainly does not mean it is. It's probably just a re-labeled 1800mah.

To me, as long as it last as least the OEM I'll be fine (there's also those 1800mah for like $12 shipped). I don't plan to use these non-OEM for every day use but rather as backup on trips or emergencies.

well i had the same brand backup battery on my evo as a backup and when i first got it, it worked about as well as a standard battery and not quite more than that. then i stopped using the battery for a few months and when i went back to using it, it drained really really fast. i think there the long layoff from not using it may have contributed to it.

www.batteryboss.org has the stats on phone batteries and their actual maH

edit: also while reseaching different Epic batteries on amazon, there are actually different model batteries made for the epic, vibrant, and fascinate. one ends in "YV" and the other "VA". i think its due to different chips in the batteries that affect how they're charged.

I purchased the cheap replacement batteries for my hero a awhile back and the mah are larger but if you read the fine print on both of the batteries the watt hours are different. The new cheap batteries have lower watt hours and there for I found the original and the cheap batteries almost evened out.
