Genuine DHD battery for £4.10 on ebay. Just bought one myself to use when my battery goes dead when I'm out. Thought I'd share. There's only 4 left.

how can you be sure that is not an imitation?

edit:
price has gone up a quid .

They're 2nd hand but for £4.10 I wasn't bothered about the risk. I don't understand why it has been increased by a quid because they didn't look like they were selling

Hello,
I can't tell, but sounds too cheap man. Make sure you will not cause a leak inside your beloved phone...

Well a refurbished battery is a battery that was dead, but been dissasembled, and the individual cells inside replaced, then recalibrates it.... as far as I've heard.
some refurbished batteries don't hold charge as long, but that's no bother to me as I've only bought it to use when I'm out and my battery goes dead, once I get back home I will charge it and replace it with my original one.

I bought a 2430mah battery but the duration is equal to the original.

Ok I have bought one from that link. It was £5.10 now so I guess it will go up £1 every time item ends so I secured one.

I have been using this battery a lot over the past two weeks now and had no problems with it. Temperature staying at a normal rate, charge holding just as long as the battery that came with my phone, no signs of leaking, etc. Very good so far.

I still have that battery now and had no problems with it at all.

So could we see the pictures please (can't see them)?

Otherwise cheap batteries may result in some harmful stories (such as overheated/blown when charged) since the (overcharge and polarity) protection are not too well implemented (if implemented at all) and the cells might be some cheap ones... Afaik.
