I just ordered this from Expansys. I had a APC unit (similar) to this previously, but it has died on me.
It says that it can recharge the HD2 three times. It comes with both USB and Micro USB connections, allowing it to be used with other USB devices.

Ordered this along with the screen protectors (P300) from Expansys earlier today. Just got email saying that they have shipped from Singapore already.

Hey,
What I do is carry a spare charged battery which is small and light. I keep it in Nike waterproof small pouch which is designed to clip to trainer shoe laces... I just keep it in my jean's pocket...
You can get spare batteries with an exteral charger on ebay and whilst these products generally are made in China and sold through Hong Kong, I have never had any problems. I have uses the same arrangment for HTC pda's since my first "HTC" Qtek 9100 all those ROM flashes ago...
Rgs,
J
Yeah, had one from my devices as well. I wanted something that could provide longer life for long trips vs. carrying a bunch of batteries.
Not sure how those battery units will work with HD2, slow charge I suspect. The HD2 can charge from either a 500mA or a 1A source. I suspect it charges faster rfom the 1A source, which this unit provides.
The G300 battery pack is good value when compared to the price of a spare HTC battery for the HD2
I ordered a whole package from Power Traveller including the solar panels. Have not tested it yet on my HD2 but it should all work out. It works well on my other cell phone, mp3 player etc.

I just received my items from Expansys, the battery is incredible - really small. To think that the battery can charge the HD2 three complete times on a single charge (2680mAh).

Nice! Did you actually test the 3 times charging? I have something similar with rechargeable AA batteries but because it also runs from the battery while charging I could only get one charge while it had triple power as the phone.

I have let it charge off AC, uses the Mini USB port for this - not micro, for upwards of six hours so far. I am going to test it starting tomorrow, leaving on charge over night. I will drain the HD2 by playing a video as long at it will let me, then if there's any power left I'll just play games on it until gone.
Actually, I'll start in the next few minutes as I hadn't planned on going to bed anyway.
I'll also stick the screen protector on and see how that goes,

OK, I used the Battery Bank (BB G300) last night to rechage my HD2. After unpacking it and charging for four hours it only would recharge my HD2 one and a half times. According to the paperwork it should charge the HD2 three times.
So, I am going to recharge the Battery Bank overnight and try again.

The instructions say something about charging 5-6 hours on AC adaptor or 10-11 hours on USB.
By the way I got one too, thanks to Nighthawk for the tip.
SO is this something like an external battery pack? can you still use the phone while charging through this? (obviously I would assume) so it's just a bigger version of the external battery you hook up through usb if you were on the plane for example. and theoretically replace carrying 3 spare batteries?
oh am I on crack and thinking of something entirely different?

The HTC screen protector (P300) is really good. I had to line it up along the long edge of the screen, but it wasn't to difficult to get on.

Well, 4400mAh is a lot more than the HTC one (2680mAh). I personaly like the size and the fact it is an HTC device, but that is just me. If you are happy with what you picked I would stay with it. The only thing I would look for is what the output is. To charge HD2 at full speed you need 1A output, not the normal 500mA that most USB devices use. You can use the 500mA charger, but it takes longer.

The HTC unit has standard USB port as well. The ability to add AA batteries is nice, but I am not in need of this at the moment.

I'm looking for a backup battery. Has anyone come across any that have enough juice to put a good charge on the nook? I know those little 400mah batteries can charge the nook but how long will 400mah last? I'm looking for something that can give it a 50%+ charge
This what you are looking for? That would get you about 1.5 charges.
This would give you about 1 charge.
The Zagg one would be perfect but its $100! I dont want to spend over $50 guess I should have said that.
I will look into the other one you posted thanks
EDIT: The energizer one looks great!! I am probably going to order one. Thanks a lot!
I didn't notice an amp output on the energizer. NC is looking for 1900 mA for proper charging. That first gizmo is dead perfect but 100 beans is a bit outside my budget too. I have a 4400 mah battery that does 1000 mA output- i wonder if that would add a few hours to my NC? I take very long flights often.

If I remember right The stock nook color charger is rated at 1.9A which is 1950mah. The energizer website lists the battery linked above as 1750mah which should work great.
Check out Brunton Chargers:
http://www.rei.com/category/40006509
I went with this unit, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0038VQET4/ref=oss_product
It's under $40 and provides a full charge.
What is the recommended way to test the time-to-charge? There are two issues that I see in capturing this data.
1) You really shouldn't run the thing dry - I mean it won't even boot with the power adapter plugged in until it has a little juice in the battery. I suppose youl could to drain it to 25% then charge from there. Then add 25% to whatever your time-to-full is?
2) how can you tell how long this thing takes to charge if you're asleep. Is there a log file which gets updated with charging events? Or some specific app for such things?
A little big but if you want to keep your mobile devices running for a long time try this:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003ZBZ64Q/ref=oss_product
It charges my NC and G2 3 times each and change. Especially useful when using the wireless tethering on the G2 to keep the NC online.
I've been running my NC entirely from a Tekkeon MyPower MP3450 with the MP3450-10 add-on pack for two full days of heavy usage (probably around 18 hours or so of actual use) and the MyPower is only drained down half-way while keeping the NC topped off at 100%. I'll be back with an update in another couple of days when I expect it to be empty.
Edit: Yep, I got four days of heavy usage (probably equivalent to four full recharges of the NC) from the Tekkeon pack. I bought it to keep my laptop running on long flights, but it's nice to know I'll be able to read if the power goes out for a few days.
Will using a standard usb cable with these backup batteries still only charge at .5A? If I use the stock nc cable on the energizer battery linked above will it damage the battery?
Have you looked at Monoprice? They have battery backups. I haven't personally ordered one of these (yet...need one for my evo) but I've ordered lots of stuff from them and everything has worked very well.

With the NC's built-in battery rated at 4000 mAh, this battery should be able to completely recharge an NC. Or give you an additional ~8+ power-on hours.

Thanks..I am surprised Monoprice doesnt carry it. Anywho, after shipping + cost of that cable + 2 x 2800 mAh, it was cheaper to buy the one from Amazon.
Nexus S is a great smart phone, however, like all other touch screen smart phones, the battery of the phone runs out within a day of usage. And if you do not have a charger or the time to charge the phone in the middle of a journey or in office, you surely run out of luck.
Fret not, because there is the Nexus S replacement battery (1500mAh) that can come to the rescue. This 1500 mAh battery comes with a USB/AC charging cradle that can be plugged to the power outlet. All you need to do is to insert the battery in the charger, plug it to the power outlet and done. Once the battery is charged, you can use it with the phone.
Since this is a replacement battery, it does not come with the Samsung branding. However, the battery looks identical to the stock one.
Besides charging the replacement battery, the AC charging cradle can also charge the battery in the Nexus S phone. Thus, you can charge two batteries at one go. Once in charging mode, the USB/AC cradle displays blue light.
I used the battery with our Nexus S phone and were quite impressed with its juice. The battery almost lasted for a day with use of phone, 3G and music playback. And this replacement battery surely makes sense with 3G services now live your phone will be more hungry.
Available from dealextreme.com for just $8.30 (Rs.370) with free shipping, you can buy one yourself by visiting the product page here.

i use solar charger it has built in 3000Ma battery you can also charge it from pc or adapter and ready to go with extra power. Have it from ebay for $29
Did anyone test any spare batteries from ebay? Thought of getting some, but not sure if it is worth it or not (the charge should at least be as high as the stock battery's) .
Got this few days ago from a china online retailer. Good construction and nice pocketable size. Slightly heavier than LG2X & about 20% thicker. Comes with 0.5A & 1A USB output.
So far, on 0.5A output, no in-charger lock ups yet - which I do get from some AC chargers.
Priced upwards of US$35. Google for "5000mah Power Bank".
will LG come out with an extended battery for the Optimus 2X ?
If they made 2 models. one like we have with a 1500 battery and one that is 1.2-1.4X thicker with lets say a 3000 battery I think almost everybody would choose the slightly thicker 3000 battery model.
These devices are small enough as it is, they should now stop trying to make them smaller as they are surely limited by the screen size, and make them last longer.
I had a Del Axim X50v a few years back that I brought an extended battery and battery cover for, this actually made the device feel better in the hand.
I think the future is not far... for batteries that are either running on gas or like these ones which can be fully charged in less than 3 min. http://green.autoblog.com/2011/03/23/new-battery-technology-electric-vehicles-recharge-minutes/

Only tested twice from over 70% to full on 0.5A. Took longer than using AC adapter. Tried it once on 1A but got a bit hot quite quickly, so I switched over to 0.5A. Also, it takes a while to charge the pack itself from partial empty to full on 1A AC adapter - so I am guessing the 5000mah claim is reasonably accurate.

Hi Guys,
Anyone tried Solar Powered Battery Chargers?
Looking at this one here :
source : 6000 mAh Solar Powered Mobile Power Extended Emergency Battery - Obostore
I'm looking fior the same. I bought recantly GOAL ZERO Nomad -7. Instead of charging it drains the power of my Note-2. I guess it is because of the non-standard pin-out (11 pins), so this is the one I would definitely not recommend.

I haven't seen any positive reviews about any solar powered chargers. The problem is that you need to apply voltage (bias it) in order for it to work. Like those solar power panels on the roof of people - if you loose a power to the house, they will not work So they might be draining instead of charging lol!!!
Don't know for sure how it works and if it works and how efficiently. So if anybody has any real life experience, please chime in. Most of the big name external battery vendors don't want to carry this product. I only seen it on ebay and Aliexpress.
I personally haven't tried one. From what I've seen about them, they're very fast, and can be nick-picky about the angle to the sun. On top of it, you'll probably need to check what's the output versus what the phone needs to change.
I think you're probably better off finding some kind of crank mechanism and use that to change the phone. Plus, you'll get a little work out too; you'll live longer to enjoy your phone, 8)
I have a voltaic that I use when camping or on extended hikes. It comes with a 3000mah battery. I haven't used it on the Note2 yet, but used it a lot with my Fascinate. The battery works fine as backup power, though it charges slowly and the phone pretty much has to be off for it to be effective. It takes most of a day of full sun to recharge the contained battery. It's ok if you're going to be away from power for a week, but for less than that I think just an extra battery or two fully charged would work better.
I think we just need to find or build one that supports 2.1 amps (ideally) but anything over 1amp should do something.

I have one I found at Best Buy a couple years ago. It's a single amp box, so charges my Note II very slowly. I've used it on my bike when I'm out on rides. I have a mount for it and my phone. While riding, I use bluetooth headphones. It does work, but like someone else said, there needs to be one with 2.1 amps.
I as well have a Nomad 7, but mine charges my note without issue, although I will admit, it is impractically slow.
I bought this couple of months ago, charging the phone is a wii bit slow but it works like a champ!

I wouldn't mind if the solar power was a "backup" to a regular external battery, but if all it did was solar I wouldn't be interested.

WICKED... just stumbled across this on ebay. If you are a roll your own DIY type and want to charge a rapid charge device like Note2 or a tablet or something, this might be a great thing to look at.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/DC-DC-5V-36...018?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c700c47c2
I, personally, don't like the mini-usb connector... seems kind of goofy. I'd prefer just two wire terminals to connect solar panels to.
But yeah, if you've got high voltage solar setup... e.g. anything between 5V and 36V and want to have a clean, regulated 5V usb compliant output, this would likely be your guy. I'd also want to make sure it really does work with note2 - in terms of negotiation of currents higher than 100ma. YMMV FWIW
AND if you don't need note2/tablet 2A...
this guy seems like about the right fit.

How big you looking? I have a 28600 anker that has fast charge. They now have a USB C PD bank that should charge faster than reg USB to C. Have heard RAV are good also. Just putting that out so you can have a choice and compare. I do know one thing I got a 5k version for my son non fast charge. I took it on vacation in July invade we needed a smaller charger on the go. Forgot it was in the suitcase. I pulled it out last week and it still had a full charge. So anker seems to know their stuff.

That's the one I decided to buy. Silver and Navy Blue have "like new" for $20.
The.passthroigh charging was another strong point in its favor.
Thanks to you, and to all who replied!

I was looking around 10Ah, else they get too heavy for just me. For when my family travels, 20-40.
What's the URL/model for your 28600? I don't see any with that value on Amazon.com (oh, the 26800 for $83?)

Yeah it's the $83 one. I got it on sale for like $60. I will say get what you need. I got the big one because it was a disney trip and we all know smartphones drain fast. Needed the power bank to last all day. Whatever you get they are very handy and not reduced to looking for a plug.

This question for everyone. How long does the battery pack hold its charge? A week, month, longer? My main reason is power outages. My last portable would be dead by the time I actually needed it. Would be nice one held juice 2-3 months. Idk if thats possible? I live in the city. We usually have power outage once every few months. Sucks being in the stone age for 0-6 hours. Depending on what caused it and how much damage.

I have an anker 16000 I got a few years ago.. I charge it may be once every 4 to 6months or so when I go for a long travel... It usually shows more than 80 % even at 4 months...

Ok cool thanks I appreciate it. Anker definitely one of the best battery brands out there. Thats impressive charge hold and perfect for me. Will cruise Amazon and look for best portable Ankrer battery pack. Thanks for the suggestion!
That's how my bank is also. Drain is minimal. I dont know about the rav or others. I only have anker. I am sure the more popular brands has the same performance

I have a romoss sense 6+, 20000mah has a usb c in and out, quick charge 3.0 PD3.0. Very affordable as well. I got mine for 15usd
Heavy power consuming apps and constant usage if WhatsApp and Facebook will definitely drain the battery of any smartphone. And power bank is one of the solutions to this thing who are traveling continuously. That's why I'm using Anker 20100mAh power bank, this power bank charge 2 device simultaneously at faster speeds.
