I have two spare batteries and was wondering if there is some sort of device that someone came across that can recommend for me to buy. charging each battery by putting it into the phone would be too much of a hassle. Any suggestions?

how about this one ?
http://www.streaksmart.com/2011/04/...y-charger-available-now-for-less-than-5.html:)
I use this charger:
http://cgi.ebay.com/2x-1600mAh-Batt...316345?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item1e62e6deb9
Works very well (e.g. charges the battery before the next battery runs out, unlike some of the other ones available)
For $12 plus you get some more batteries, good deal.
There are many other auctions with the charger, varying in price and the number of batteries you get.
But the charger is good.

Well I bought this a few weeks ago and it came in the mail a few days ago...all i can say is nice..! It was 2 batteries 1600mah and a charger for like 18$ shipped and the battery last way longer than the stock one...I am very impressed and will let you know how they stand up...Today is my first day and I did not even drain and cycle charge them yet so I may get even more juice...I am very impressed for cheap ebay batteries...Anyways...cheers

I already have two batteries, I'm looking for a charger that can charge two batteries at the same time. I doubt that there is something like that out there lol

Anyone bought this? I did and it works lovely but when the phone is on the dock you cannot really use it. Everytime u touch the screen it goes haywire. Anyone else or is mine faulty?
I am on travel very often and my last experience with my Desire was that when working on the phone with no possibility of charging it, I was left with very little or non battery late afternoon. Any suggestion for a good Travel Battery Pack anyone? One extra charge will do. Thanks
Probably better off getting a spare battery, and charge it up, most easiest way i think instead of carrying aa batteries and charge cases, leads etc.
Just look on ebay and click cheapest first.

Cheap lol but check the postage time if they are from CHINA
Good Luck
Got these Conversions for you for a rough guide
Sunday, May 1, 2011
11 British Pound = 15.91271 Swiss Franc
11 Swiss Franc (CHF) = 7.60398 British Pound (GBP)
Median price = 1.44461 / 1.44661 (bid/ask)
Minimum price = 1.44461 / 1.44661
Maximum price = 1.44461 / 1.44661
Hope this helps
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/

Well I order mine, but the version with 1 charger and 2 spare batteries (3 batteries is just plain greedy) We'll see how long they take to get here.
would like an option for dock/ battery charger and 2 batteries from ebay but combo NA last time i checked
Does anyone know of a portable battery pack that charges at over 500mah? all of the battery packs Ive seen are around 500mah and that doesn't seem to be enough to even charge the G2X coming from my old charger.

I am using a 5000mah capacity battery pack. It has a USB port with 500mA output and another USB port with 1000mA output. See post no. 8 on this thread.

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.
I bought this item from DealExtreme.
2200mAh Rechargeable Portable Emergency Power with Phone Adapters
SKU: 23734
It works fine, but the input broke after some uses and I had to fix it.
Energizer works best for me... as LG P990 wouldn't last a day with WiFi and 3G active... i have XP2000 and it works great!, the free tip for life is a welcome bonus... I'd post the link but since am a newbie, i cant.
please google Energizer Energi to go or energizer XP2000
Hello,
Could someone recommend a wireless charger for both the G2 and Nexus 7? Seeing is the G2 has quick charge or whatever its called, I don't want to get a charger that isn't suited well for the G2 or would cook the nexus.
I am just not sure if they are compatible or if I need to keep an eye for certain amps.
I can get the Nokia DT-900 for $15 or was considering this one. Both are are priced really well but the Nokia seems so small.
Thanks,
Just remember that you get what you pay for. Cheap chargers tend to charge more slowly and don't do as good of a job. The first review you see on that one you linked, is probably a common issue because the charger isn't smart enough to trickle power to the device once it reaches full. Instead the phone hits 100% and the charger turns off after that. So when you wake up in the morning, it might not be completely full.
Also, cheap Qi chargers tend to be very particular about the placement of the device, making it more of a hassle to find the "sweet spot".
Personally I'd say drop the extra money and buy a name brand one with plenty of good reviews. I'd imagine the LG made one will even charge the G2 all super fast like it's supposed to do.
Sent from CAMACHO, my Verizon G2 (VS980) running PAC ROM 4.3.
To my knowledge, "quick charge" doesn't really apply to the wireless chargers. They max out at around 1A of current, whereas the wall charger is more than twice that. Anything Qi will charge both the Nexus 7 and the G2, just look at the output current to see how fast it can charge, some are low.
I went to my local Verizon store (corporate) and picked up a Tylt Vu wireless charger (around $70). It comes in a few different colors and will charge your phone vertical or horizontally. FYI - It worked great, even with an Otterbox Defender case on it. No more scratching the hell out of the bottom of my phone at night! LOL!
I have both and I use this charger http://m.ebay.com/itm/360810800471. It's perfect cause I can charge both at the same time. I purchased a refurbished one when I got the LG G2 on the first day it was released. I've not had a problem.

Good info.
It is helpful to know that I do not need to worry about the Quick Charge feature of the G2.
Also might be handy to get the dual charger, that would be pretty sweet.
I have the Nokia one and it works fine on both devices for me. Definitely a great steal.

ok so just now i had a look of the AT&T S3 Mini specs over at www.samsung.com and saw that it is listed as having a 2000mah battery, yet the phone dimensions of the new model are a little bit smaller than the ones on the I8190. So would it be possible to put the 2000mah battery from the SM-G730A into my I8190, which originally has just a 1500mah battery (i have a 1700mah one from the Ace 2, but i want more ).
And please don't tell me that there are external chargers, extended batteries or stuff like that. I know about those things, but don't wanna add bulkness to my phone or to be forced to always carry the external charger with me
Have a nice day !

I don't have that phone but as long as it fits, connectors and voltage the same you can use it.
I did this before with my Galaxy W since the shop I went didn't have my exact model.
Or you can buy same size 3rd-party battery that claims 2000mah (I am using one), but I think the numbers are overated. I didn't feel the 2000mah battery last longer than original one.

can you give a link to such a battery 'cause i can't seem to find it on the net? BTW my 1700mah battery just stopped charging to 100% from yesterday (only goes to 96 max and then stops). Not that it's a big deal, but 4% is 4% (about 4 hours stand-by time).
I am using Sun Global battery which is local to my place. www.sunglobal.com.my

Hello,
I m looking for a battery pack which would feet with my new lg g2. I nearly bought an Anker but their custom service told none of their batteries were compatible with the G2.
I found some clues that the Trent power pack ultra do work with it but I cannot find a way to deliver it to France...
Does someone has a valid battery pack which working well with the gorgeous G2 battery? I am not looking for a case because to be able to use it to charge some other stuff like an iPad.
Thanks.
Compatible? It's just a charger, right? It just provides a ready supply of power at a certain voltage, with a max amperage. So I'm sure everything will work. If you want max charging speed, pick a 2A max current model

I saw few comments of users telling that their phone stop charging 3-4 seconds after plugging in the charger. Anker even remove every reference to LG G2 on their website, some battery page mention of "not compatible with G2" cf: Anker 2nd Gen Astro3 12000mAh
It s what made me suspicious, and I have started looking for real feedback on battery pack with G2.
I m guessing g2 with his gorgeous battery have some kind of protection circuit which does not accept low current charger or stuff like that.

Seems odd to me. I've been using my phone with cheap ebay chargers, which admittedly gave me pretty slow charging, but they've always worked. Sorry, I can't be of any help then, maybe someone else knows.
I have a RavPower 10400mAh and it works great with my lg g2. I don't know why Anker doesn't have any chargers that fit with g2 as most of the phones in the market has either a cable like apples' or a unified like most of the other phones.

That was exactly the kind of feedback i was looking for.
Just for information, how long does it take to charge your LG G2 with it?

it really differs, I mean, some were absolutely crap, but most of them are able to give atleast 500mA, concidering its a 3000mA battery, that would be 6 hours. In comparison, the stock charger would manage to do it in well under two hours. But charging rate is something I think the manufacturer should provide in the spec sheet.
If you have a Verizon model, you might run into problems as third party chargers have been reported to be very slow.
Look HERE . They have some awesome deals.
30,000MAH is that even possible?

I checked it out. It says
"Battery actual capacity:13800mAh"
Which is still fairly much. It isn't exactly uncommon for chinese manufacturers to exaggurate

they might be accidentally adding an extra zero at the end. HAHAHAHAHA! :laugh:
I sprung for a mophie powerstation XL (it helps I work for a large photo/electronics retailer and got a great discount on it) and am very happy with it. It's a little big and weighs about a pound, but fits in my bag and it can charge my G2 and my N7FHD multiple times. I'm going to Vegas for a week and know the 12,000 mAh battery is plenty to cover my devices and my wife's SGSIII.
I've got an Anker Astro 5600mAh and it charges my G2 perfectly fine. Sure, its at the slower speed, 1A, but a charge is a charge.
Sometimes it cant charge with external charger because of the charger and phones electronic talk together and find some reason why not to charge. This problem is very usual with laptops and laptop chargers. I had this problem once with phone too and the easiest what helped me was to use another microusb cable, the one with only charging ports, not the data ports.
I use the anker 2nd gen 6000mAh and I have always a good charge time
Inviato dal mio LG-D802 utilizzando Tapatalk
Try the RAVPower external battery pack, I have their 14,000mAh and it can charge two devices at the same time. It did help me out of emergencies many times.
I would still like to know why its not compatible. I've been using the 1st gen anker astro (10,000 mah model) without issue untill it has decided to die hence now looking to replace it.
I also use the Anker 40w wall (also using power QI) charger with my G2 without a problem...
have raikko 5200 MAh, have it for about 3 years (bough it for my old optimus 2x originally) and it still works. I think the capacity is little lower now, but still great results after long time. I can charge approx one and quarter times.
i have 3 diferent external battery packs. (im playing ingress)
My advice ... By a anker of amazon. thay are by far the best chargers and the price is realy good.
I had the same issue when I was going to buy an Anker battery pack as well.
I think I'll probably get a RavPower battery pack. Is it best to use the 2amp slot to charge the LG G2?
Noontec Polo II
I have a Noontec Polo II 5600mAh battery and it charges my phone (D802) perfectly fine. On 2A out it takes 2h10m from 0 to 100% (phone turned on, very very light usage during the charge process)
