    Post Zerolemon 10,000mah battery available for preorder

    You only have to recharge from 2% back to full for 12 hours only on the very first charge after having depleted to 2%. You don't have to do it for the first 5 charge cycles. The 2nd full charge cycle you can just keep it on the charger until the full charge green light comes on which takes...

    Post Zerolemon 10,000mah battery available for preorder

    It sounds bad but it's not that bad. I myself wasn't about to purchase because what you wrote was my understanding, but I purchased it, and at first the negative criticism painted my perception of the battery as awful but I stuck with it and now I never want to part from this battery, just...

    Post Zerolemon 10,000mah battery available for preorder

    Again if I have to repeat myself, you don't want to deplete a lithium ion battery all the way down to 1%. Lithium Ion batteries don't have a "memory effect" like NiCad batteries and they need to be exercised in order to prolong it's life span. You do this by charging the battery through partial...

    You guys are stupid! This battery is a great product. Unless any of you idiots can come up with, produce ands manufacturer a better extended battery, STFU! It's no wonder they'll no longer support zerolemon, it's because of yall exaggerated criticism of this awesome extended battery. It...

    Post Zerolemon 10,000mah battery available for preorder

    Also, the ZeroLemon battery works really well with the Gear VR. I almost regretted getting the ZL battery thinking it was useless because I wouldn't be able to use it with the Gear VR because of the case, but guess what it works! You will have to take the case off, and I know you're wondering...

    Post Zerolemon 10,000mah battery available for preorder

    Well if it takes away the annoyance and gives people a sense of peace that "it is what it is", and that it lessens the anxiety of wanting a correct percentage reading from such a huge capacity powerbank. I've had many external batteries/power banks that were 10,000 MAH from the aforementioned...

    Post Zerolemon 10,000mah battery available for preorder

    external power banks or battery packs won't show a correct percentage of power left that's why they use bars instead. I believe that the zero lemon extended battery is pretty much like an external battery power bank such as the Rav 10500 mAh and so won't be able to give an accurate percentage...

    Post So I have the new Gear VR . For the S6

    I just bought my gear vr today for my note 4 and for the same problem, all I did was restart the phone and the went through the setup again and it worked. Maybe try restarting the phone first before making the solution more complicated?

    Post Zerolemon 10,000mah battery available for preorder

    Yep! The only reason I went with the Note 4 is because the S6 didn't have a removable battery! Every mobile manufacturer needs to realize this. Having the option of changing out the battery is important, if only because batteries have a shelf life that's about 2 years, but mostly because in...

    Post RAVPower External Battery Bank- Great Price!

    Yeah from 1 bar back to fully charge takes almost 15-20 hours on mine. That's stupid crazy. But what irritates me is the inconsistencies of posts when people say the 2A port charges faster than the 1A port. This should be the case, but since my first device and this replacement, which both were...

    You're right. I just tried it again and port 2A is still charging slower than port 1A, even with that option checked. :(

    Post RAVPower External Battery Bank- Great Price!

    ok, so I tried to test it again and observed using battery monitor widget (free) and when I plugged my Nexus 7 in the 2A port it charged 1% in 30-40 minutes, I was bummed, and then when I switched to the 1A port it charged 1% in 4-7 minutes. I then played with the settings in battery monitor...

    Post Best phone to compliment the Nexus 7?

    I have the LG G2X and before I got the Nexus 7 it seemed very suspicious to me how closely the gaming tablet looks like a bigger version of T mobiles gaming phone. Could it be ASUS used the G2X as a model and blew it up? Anyway, I feel happy to have the G2X with the Mugen extended 4500mah...

    I just bought and returned the Nyko Playpad because it couldn't connect to the Nexus 7. I searched online and it was a known issue since last year.

    The RAV 10,000 is the external battery you want. The adapter that comes with it is very small and 2 USB cords come with it to charge the RAV. I use the stock USB cord that came with the nexus to plug into the RAV. As far as the problem of the 2a port charging slower than the 1a, I don't...

    Awesome. I just orders mine today. I live in Hawaii. How long did it take to get yours in the mail? Also can you do a review on how it charges the nexus 7? How long does it take? Can it fully charge the nexus? Can you use the nexus at the same time while it's charging? Etc. Etc. Thanks

    Forget the 3g dongle, this is what I use and I find it to be the best option for wifi tablets. Not only is it TRUE unlimited data with no caps, but you also don't have a foreign object hanging off the side of your Nexus7. I upgraded my home modem to the clear spot voyager and this tiny wifi...

    Post Price Drop on Nexus 7

    According to the representative at Gamestop, they are no longer making the 16 GB Nexus 7 and are phasing it out by getting rid of the remaining stock. So, my understanding is that Gamestop will only be selling the 32 GB wifi/data along with other retailers like Walmart when the 16 GB runs out...
