Battery Recommendations

My OEM battery for my Advantage is starting to show some age. I can't seem to find an OEM replacement on the web. I've had checkered experience with replacement batteries -- especially from ebay -- in the past. So, I'm wondering if anyone wants to make a recommendation for either a specific battery or specific web vendor.
I know there's another thread about batteries, but they seem to focus on ebay batteries or one which costs $82.00. That's a bit pricey for me.
Thanks!

so, if you'll excuse my ignorance, what's so special about the mugen battery? I've looked at them but was wondering why they're so expensive. 200ma more doesn't seem worth that kind of premium. However. I'd consider it if it were worth the extra cash.
thanks again.

Its more on the principle, you get wa you pay for! Mugen lasts longer and i believe they have a better warranty for them.Mugen specializes in extended batteries.If you just need a battery but dont have the cash ,then the 20$ battery good for now,no problems so far its been almost a month and charges hold well.

any one got links to those 2400 batteries?
i've checking ebay and googling online, but i can't find them

I am tempted to get one as a backup for when I travel...
http://cgi.ebay.com/Lithium-Battery...m?hash=item270213135346&_trksid=p3286.c0.m234

the one on the link is a standard 2200 not 2400
2200 is the one from factory

Do you guys think this is legit?

im a bit skeptical since it is on ebay what do you guys think?
http://cgi.ebay.com/1600mah-Spare-B...ries?hash=item518c118338&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

Sounds why to good to be true and if it is I would be quite concerned about it's safety

i have bought many items from hong kong on ebay
i thought the g1 battery was 5v and not 3.7v? maybe i'm wrong
heres a feedback from someone who bought the item:
"As Described, Havent seen the benefit of the xtra capacity yet, but it works gr8"
1600mah Spare Battery for HTC G1 Google Phone NEW (#390071957890)
I would trust him since the guy has over 30,000 transactions, and has feedback of 98.7%

ok im going to bite the bullet and purchase it (30,000 transactions and 98.7% positive sounds pretty good to me!) and if it isnt 1600mah at least i have a spare battery

jadi929, I love feedback following on eBay too, you can easily uncover some rampant lies (like following the same "untested" item back through several sales).
I'm still in the market for a high capacity standard size,
I bought this one as a basic replacement: http://cgi.ebay.com/z388-Battery-Fo...ries?hash=item3a51ceee23&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14
It came this morning, but they've sent me this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/T-MOBILE-HTC-OE...ries?hash=item5ad2ee643b&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14
Whatever, it was only £2.50, and since those are cheapest prices, I've kinda of got a more expensive one.
Currently waiting on this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/HTC-G1-T-MOBILE...s?hash=item4ceabd1c59&_trksid=p3286.m63.l1177
So hope you can post something positive on that one, maybe I'll have one too.

No they are 3.7v, charging is at 5v so it's compatible with USB.

Cheap eBay Sourced 1500mAh Batteries

I just ordered a 3-pack of 1500mAh batteries with a battery charger for like $12 shipped from eBay. Since they are coming from Hong Kong, I have a bit of a wait, but has anybody tried the eBay batteries on their Xperia Play?
I used similar batteries on my Samsung Captivate with no problems other than they seemed to be only slightly less capacity than my original (based on non-scientific gut checks at the end of the day of how much charge I thought I should have.)
In searching before posting this, I saw some nightmares in the HTC forums where they peeled back the label from their batteries and found them rated by another label 500mAh less than what the top label said.
I'll report back either way when they arrive.

Got them in today. I took some pics to show what they look like right out of the pack. Notice that they all have the same S/N. Hmmmm
The charger has a USB port at the bottom and glows red when charging. If it is like the other eBay battery chargers I've seen, it will likely turn a different color when full.
Will report back once I've had a chance to use them.

Good luck with the batteries. I couldn't find the offer with 3 batteries so maybe they took it out in the last month (ebay.com).
If they turn out to be ok it could be a good investment for an emergency. Looking forward to your results.

I picked up the batteries from this seller.
As it turns out, two of the batteries seem to be bad. I sent a note to the seller to see about making it right. I'll update the thread with whatever the outcome turns out to be.
Regardless, the one that is working is doing a great job. I've been using it in place of my original battery, and so far, I can't seem to tell any difference.
Update: I accepted an offer for my Xperia Play, so I won't be following up here. I sold it with the good extra battery and am probably going to get a Samsung next.

I bought a set with 2 batteries and they seem to work fine, just slightly less capacity as the original. I know just charge the batts separately and swap them when I need a new one.

I got this response from the seller:
Dear Customer,
Thank you for shopping with us.
We apologize for the inconvenience. We are now processing replacement for you.
Customer satisfaction is important to us, as a token of courtesy, there is no need for you to return the original item to us.
Again, we apologize for the inconvenience. If there is anything else we can do to assist you, please feel free to let us know. Thank you.
Sincerely,

That was really nice of them. I checked the seller but they won't ship outside of the US, even tho it's coming from Hong Kong D:

There's a chinese company that makes 1800mAh batteries for the X10. They work in the play, and are good quality. All the reviews said they actually offered better battery life, unlike a lot of cheap alternatives. I can't remember the brand name, but they're black with gold writing.

Normally I wouldn't trust third party batteries from eBay, although I did buy an extended battery for my laptop off of Amazon over a year ago (third party) and it stills holds a charge fantastically.

[Q] Universal charge dock

Hello,
I'm looking for something like this to charge my spare battery, but I have few options since I'm outside USA. I've seen plenty of good options at amazon, but none which can be shipped to my country, and I don't trust "unbranded"/generic products related to battery because it can kill the battery life or, worst scenario, leak or explode.
My options are limited to ebay, DX or aliexpress (or any shop with cheap international shipping), can someone recomend me something (trustable) about U$10-U$15?

There are too many options but you are living outside United States. One thing you can do is go to amazon.com and find products......Of course you will have to do some research but you will find it....

LG has a battery charger but I don't believe they're selling it separately. I got it on pre-order and I will not sell it to you
Try something like that There's 3 different models on that page.

This store sales LG original parts: http://www.spareslg.com
Original battery is 18,11€ plus taxes, try email tham and ask for the charger.

that's an interesting question... so you have a spare battery for your phone? Why not just get a power bank, or something like that? THose must be more readily available than what you're looking for.

mi 5s original battery on amazon

hi i only can buy from amazon in us store from my country
i need a original battery for my mi 5s
plz send a link for me
thx for your help

common i need your help
plz answer me
i really need the battery

just buy any u can find with decent reviews, or if aliexpress is available, buy from aliexpress.
generally when it comes to these kinds of battery replacements it is quite impossible to verify the authenticity of the batteries without buying them, and given how old the phone is, there will be hardly any available.
