Siedio Thunderbolt 3500mah Battery on the rezound?

---

Maybe we might have a 3500mah batt for the rezound!!!!

I have been a little disappointed with the rezound's extended battery and have had good experiences with siedio batteries on the Dinc.

I called siedio and they said that they wont be making an ext batt for the rezound. So in my searches for a battery i came across this
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from...c+rezound+batt

It seems that the same batt is used on the Rezound, thunderbolt and the mytouch 4g. I also come to find Seidio makes a 3500mAH batt for the t-bolt.

So the question i have is to any previous owners of the t-bolt or the mytouch:

Does the batt from these phones work in the rezound?
and
If yes - does the 3500mAH t-bolt seidio batt fit in the rezound with the rezound extended case. I currently have a call into Seidio's tech supp. hopefully they will give me an answer.

I sure wouldn't mind an extra 750mah on my rezound.

I just got a call back from Seidio tech support.

They told me that the batt works but doesn't register on the batt meter.
He said he actually had it in his hand and was testing it in a Rezound but he didnt have an extended back so i dont know if the verizon one will work.

He also measured the batt and said it is just under 1cm thick.

He said the phone powers up and seems to be working but he doesn't know what the long term performance would be like.
I guess there is electronics in the batt that communicates with the phone to track batt life.

Oh well don't know if i want to take a $70 chance with this.

It would be great if someone out there who has this battery could verify it.

I think I recall people having issues charging TBolt batteries as well. Not speaking from experience though but something to consider.

Another disappointing thing the Seidio tech told me - that there will be no 3500mah batt for the Rezound.

All batteries or just HTC t-bolt batteries? I mean does that include the Seidio 3500mah batt?

oh no... another one of these threads.

yes, a MyTouch 4G or Thunderbolt battery will work in a Rezound.

you will notice though that the "Wh"(wattage hours) do not match up(Rezound's being higher) so even though the Seidio one is 3500, it'll perform closer to a 3000 in the Rezound.

additionally, since the battery is not intended for the Rezound it has the potentional to do damage to the Rezound.

back in my Galaxy Nexus days, we found we could use Galaxy S II batteries in it. one of the GN users gave it a go for awhile and the SII battery ended up shorting out his device somehow & he had to get it replaced.

Glad someone finally came to the table to help the guy out.

Oh yes another -
Problems with one phone/battery combo don't necessarily mean there will be the same problems on another.

Keyword - "potential".
It doesn't hurt to ask as someone out there may have tried it with success.

The Rezound or any phone does not have a WH rating. It has a continuous current rating. I don't know about the ratings of these phones but i would assume that the rezound is higher so, with voltage being ~ equal, the power dissipation would be greater.

The battery rating is not dictated by the phone. The battery WH rating is a function of the current/voltage and the dissipation time of the battery and independent of the device consuming it? So a 3500mah battery will deliver "X" mA's of power but for less time than in a mytouch due to the higher current draw (X) of the rezound.

In other words a 3500mah batt will perform like a 3500mah batt regardless of which phone it was intended to be used on.

Did you every buy a Thunderbolt extended battery and try in your rezound? If so does it fit with the Rezound Extended battery back?

guys i just traded my thunderbolt in for a rezound. like a damn idiot i shipped theTB's 3500 extended battery back to verizon but before i returned it, it lasted the same amount as on my TB. im gonna try and get verizon to ship it back to me because this rezound extended battery isnt as good.
