"Powerskin" for HD7

Today my local T-mobile store has in stock a Powerskin for the HD7. It is a silicone skin with A 1500 mAh battery built in. This brings your total mAh to about 2750 mAh. Until now the only add-on battery unit this company made was for the I-phone. I like it! It adds plenty of juice to your HD7 without making the phone into a doorstop. You can put it on and just leave it on all-the-time, or just stick it on when your battery gets low then remove it when your battery is recharged.

I tried one of these and returned it. The phone feels loose in the skin and the connector feels very delicate. It also turns the phone into a brick.

I really do appreciate that this thing is available but I'd think I'd rather just carry around a second standard battery.

Nope it stops at 30% lol. If there isn't anything you need, you can throw in 2 of the $4 neck straps and you will get 30% off of $58 making the skin $40.

I bought the Powerskin during the promo; got 20% off the $49.99 price. Overall, the quality is good, it adds a level of protection to the phone and gives it a little more to hold on to; yes, it add to the heft of the phone, but that's not a prob for me. I took it one step further and took a belt clip piece and using Permatex Black, stuck it on the back of the Powerskin so that I can now carry the phone in the Powerskin on my belt. Works fine, and the extra battery keeps me going all day without worry.

A highly recommended accessory IMHO
