Ok I have searched ebay for all possible references to galaxy tab battery but never found anything resembling what you have shown on the picture.
Please would you be kind enough to post the brand/make/model for this?

A power gorilla would be amazing for a gtab, or any device really. It's one item I really want to get. Free energy, waterproof for 30 mins, same size as gtab so i can stack them, charges the gtab 7 times on a full charge.

Is it worth it? And are they durable?

i got the new trend 5000MAh external, $45 on amazon

It's got a 1A output and a 500mA output, seperate, with a mini usb B input so you can charge it by usb

I plug my galaxy tab 10.1 in, and it sort of charges, it shows the blue battery icon with the lightning bolt inside it, indicating charging, but there's a red X over it too

Sounds like it's charging, but under the recommended amperage, and thus very slowly

Anyone tried to hack their externals to over-amp the outputs?

I have a Trent also and the 7" Tab.........if you use the OEM cord, you need an adapter for it to charge correctly. Deal Extreme has "USB Power Adapter for Samsung P1000" for $3.50 and it makes it charge. Also, if you get a Gomadic cord / tip, that works without having to use the adapter. I like that Gomadic has a retractable cable - saves on space when it comes to packing different cords and they have tips for almost everything.

Sorry but I don't think I can post links yet........ Guess I can now.

other than buying an external battery, can the Galaxy Tab 7" battery be replaced?
i carry too much "stuff" already... i don't have room for anything else. Dont know if i will have room for my PS Vita when it FINALLY gets here.
