Just wondering if anyone has found 3rd party batteries for the atrix yet?
Good Place For Batteries

I'm curious about this as well. I missed having options for battery when I switched to iPhone 3G, 3GS, 4 (like with Treo and BlackBerry). As a mobile addict, I miss extended batteries (even though larger). I hope to have these choices for Atrix and hope the switch to Android doesn't serious piss me off.

Welcome, it may take a bit, bit I think you will be glad you switched.
Also, I am sure third party batteries will show up after a few weekes particularly if the phone is popular.
I truly wouldn't mind one of the extended battery Juice Pack cases like I had for my iPhone. They added some bulk, but they nearly doubled my battery life on my iPhone, and they are simple to take off plus you don't have to pull out your phone's battery to do it.
You need something bigger than a 1930mAh battery?

With 1930mAh battery installed + laptop dock for 8 more hours running ability, I don't think I need an extra battery more.
I used it very heavily at work. Maybe got like 6hrs out of the oem battery.
Which is the best I have had in all the smart phones Ive used

LOL the battery is large but the way I use my phones I don't know if it will last all day; I looked on eBay a few minutes ago and didn't really see anything.
I have the standard and went and bought two extra batteries for the phone for the days I was out and didbt have access to a charger.

jfyi the droid x BH6x battery is the same battery as ours so you can search for droid X bh6x battery. just make sure that its the slim model as in if its comes with a battery door the its too fat for our phone
Keep dreaming - mophie (manufacturer of the Juice Pack) steadfastly refuses to offer products for non i- whatevers. I've talked to them about it previously. Only way it'll happen is if Motorola or some other company makes one, and that hasn't happened.
your right i did not think of this. Most people overlook this fact,Guys dont forget to give your phone a week to get propperly calibrated
I got spoiled by multiple gen-you-whine Motorola batteries for my StarTac. Between the main battery, the AAA tray to replace that, and the piggyback battery...who needed AC?
But I've also found an AWFUL LOT of battery suppliers are junk. Some mislabeled with bogus capacity, some that just don't hold a charge well, some that knock wood I never got, that catch fire.
I don't like gen-you-whine battery prices, especially for a new phone, but I'd be real careful about buying from other vendors right now. Or are there some other vendors you have found that can trust, by brand name?
Supposedly...with standard microUSB power plugs, we are supposed to just use a "powerpack" to recharge the phones on the fly. There's something to be said for doing it that way too, I guess.

My battery states 1880 mAH on the back of it...i thought it should be 1930 mAh
1880...1930...Could be a change in production with one manufacturer being slightly better or a slight change in the process. If you think of them both as "1905+-25mA" it really is just a small difference in battery life.
Maybe that's why some of the 1880's are being sold off cheap, they've been obsoleted?

There are loads of batteries out there. Just search for BH6X or BH-6X. Some sellers say they are for Atrix, others for Droid X. I believe its the same battery as the extended droid (I hope!). I just bought one from a US based seller for $21 on EBAY.
FWIW I pulled mine out, it is 1880mA. And that's a phone that shipped last week.
