Why not just get some extra batteries and put them in your wallet

I'm a Noob, but I would of thought the following would be the best solution
official Samsung products as according to the Samsung manual, none Samsung batteries & chargers may damage your device:

Official Samsung Galaxy Note Holder and Battery Charger

Official Samsung Galaxy Note Replacement Battery:

I'm afraid I'm not allowed to post external links at this time, but if anyone would care to intercede on my behalf and post relevant product link or simply copy&paste to Google search.

I had 3 batteries with mine old Desire and it takes time to charge all 3 full. Note takes 3Hx2= 6H.
This time I wanna try out portable battery pack instead and can also charge other device too if needed.
I never used portable battery pack before and just dont know which brands are good or bad ones.

Anyway, I might go for New Trent one, small/light and 11000mah sounds good. Just the cheap price makes me wonder how good can it be?

it's not that big....almost big as the note, but thicker....

I'm not sure how many charges you can get from small ones...

The New Trent line of charges are excellent. You won't regret it.

Just ordered New Trent iCruiser IMP1000 11000mAh External Battery Pack and see how it works out.

And thanks all for suggestions.

The TeckNet iEP380-II 7000mAh I ordered from Amazon.co.uk appears to work fine.

It charged the battery from 40% to 73% in around 1:20 whilst I was watching TV tonight (including the last episode of Dexter, Eek!). I had the Wi-fi on, updated a couple of apps and played with the phone quite a bit, so I'm fairly happy with that.

I'm using Sanyo mobile booster 5000mAh costing around SGD$70~

I have an Anker Power Bank. It is about half the size of a pack of smokes. It works awesome, and easily slips into ANY pocket.

I have this one too & can confirm that it's a great little battery pack. It's already saved me a few times in the 2 weeks that I've had it.

Momax iPower Pro Portable Battery Pack

Hi, everyone!
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note and I´m thinking of buying the Momax iPower Pro 8000mAh Universal Portable Battery Pack. Does anyone have any experience with it?
Or can you maybe suggest something similar?
Thanks!

xamaba · Dec 28, 2011

I have ordered one of these http://portablepowersupplies.co.uk/portapowPremium.htm still waiting on delivery but it should work great for the Note when far from a wall socket.

I have the phonesuit primo...nothing but praise for this portable battery. I have only filled it up two or three times in the year that I have had it, but it doesn't seem to lose power over time. I use it for emergencies in charging my Galaxy Tab, and have used it to charge my Nokia E71 and a few friends iPhones. Looks nice as well.

I got mine New Trent iCruiser IMP1000 11000mAh and just for 1 week.
It came with around 75% charged (3 LED lighted) and icould charge the Note from 10-15% both times., still got 1 led left. Then I put it on charge overnight and it took around 14H before fully charged.

From 15% to 100% took around 2H 40min and less then Samsung charger that took 3H 30 min.

Thats is something weird about the 3 leds that display how much battery is left, donnu if it display correct about how much battery left its on the battery pack.
From fully charged, it drops from 3 leds to 1 led in around 2H charge time on mine Note. Donnu if the 3 leds are displaying wrong about how much battery is left, or I need to recharge it few times, before it reach full potential of the battery pack?
Or just the battery pack dont have that 11000 mah juice as the spec say its?

One minor problem, I have, is it cant charge mine bluetooth SonyEricsson MW600, it start to charge it for a while and then stop keep charging it. Had to unplug the microusb cable and replug it to charge it.

Well, gonna wait until recharge it few more times and see how it goes. Right now recharging it for 2 time and update later for more "reviews".
