they really need to get their math together.

at my average "heavy" usage a 558,000 mah battery would be good for 465 days of usage! not 6 months.

though now that I run the number their usages assumes you use a full 3100mah a day. highly unlikely as that is actually pretty hard to do with this critter :)

Meh. On a good day I have no problem burning through my anker 6200 mah battery with brightness turned all the way down. I would say I would fall somehwere between your estimates and theirs.

Think I can mod my otterbox to fit it? Lol

Same. I only have 2 stock batteries but I can kill it from 100% easily in a day. Charge overnight, go to highschool and come back with 85% battery even when using airplane mode. After that, I easily kill it by 8 pm.

wow. I thought I was a pretty heavy duty user. I can kill an S3 in half a day but the Note II has such amazing battery life I leave EVERYTHING ON auto light all radios on etc.. and I still have 30-50% battery left when I get home at night :)

its one of the reasons I so love my Note II. no more battery concerns. :)

This battery scares me. But I want one. almost worth the price to never have to charge your phone until you want a new one. But say you actually drained this F***er, how long would it take to recharge? a day? week? MONTH maybe?

You are not serious, uh? This was April's Fools joke posted on April 1st by Mugen, a clever "free" advertisement to spread the fake news so people would visit their website where they will try to convince you to buy their 6200 mAh battery for $105 instead of exactly the same 6200 mAh from Anker for $16.99 :)

I guess on April 1st nobody took it seriously, but now a few days later people think it's real? Almost as bad as Howard turning Howard 101 into AGT101 on Sirius for a day :D

wow. I think I missed out on April fools completely. damn, wish this battery was real though. I guess it's pretty clearly not a real project since you cant actually order it
