I swear by these guys for all my accessories and batteries, going on 4 phones now. Very satisified customer.
edit2: 09/23/09- email from seidio stating it is NOT compatible with the holster listed below
edit: and says it's compatible with holster, agian, very satisfied buy.

This is by far my favorite of the 3 holsters I've previously owned for various phones by the same company. Phone sits very secure with no fear of falling out at all.
Interesting, the price is a bit steep but not too high.
I would like to see some higher res pics from a few angles to get a better idea of what the case cover looks like.
I have the holster but how do you know the extended battery fits the holster? From the single photo of the battery cover, it looks like the top sticks out as much as the area below the camera...

Yes I did see that though from the photo it does not look like that's the case. Do you really think it's compatible from that photo? I've had the extended battery for the Storm and the holster worked fine because the battery cover did not extend on the upper portion where the camera is. Guess we'll have to wait for someone to actually dive in but in the meantime I'm sticking to what I can tell from that photo on their site.
Reasonable price? depends on what you think is reasonable. You do realize that without either the battery or the phone, the other is pretty worthless. I think it's a great price considering crap motorola batteries are $30
got this from seidio, just an fyi, they must be talking about different holsters or the listing might just be plain incorrect.

I ordered this, and its been shipped already and I am awaiting arrival. I also have the innocase and holster combo, and while I know the innocase wont fit, I will try the holster and report back if that one works.
any idea which case will work?
:/
I got mine today. Huge battery
The replacement cover is ok, although I am afraid it will accidentally slide off in my pocket.
Overall, the added bulk really doesn't make a huge difference, in fact it makes it a little easier to hold.
Can't wait to see what the battery life on this sucker is like.

I got mine today too. I also like the added bulk. It fits my Seidio holster, even though the innocase that I got with the holster wont fit. Made of the same material as the innocase so its hard to scuff etc. I'll report back after a few cycles to let people know what I'm getting usage wise out of it.
UPDATE:
Well, it came off the charger at 3:30pm today saying 100%. I have been hammering it mercilessly for 6 hours now. Streaming Pandora for six hours straight, Turned on GPS, set all of my social network notifications to the quickest pull intervals, and my mail also. I have had the web browser open for nearly three hours, had three calls of around 20 minutes each, and my awake time since I pulled the battery off the charger is 100%. I am sitting at 75% right now. I am trying to get the battery low so I can get a full charge for the next cycle, but this damn thing won't go down. I guess I'll try to download a game or something and play it while listening to Pandora. This thing is a beast....
This is a beast. Used it all evening last night, and the power meter did not budge.
Also the new back makes the Hero much easier to hold.
Waiting for a day in the office where I have a weak signal to see how it does there. I'm guessing this thing will make it through a day or two no matter what I throw at it.
By far the best accessory...
Awesome, guys, glad to hear this thing is the real deal. I'm thinking about getting one but I'm waiting for the price to go down. Anyone know if they usually do? Last extended battery I bought was only $7, this one is pretty steep.
I found a better deal but not in stock ATM:

sounds great. can't wait to buy one, but i'm waiting to find out which case is compatible. i'm not picky, can be a leather pouch, any suggestions?

watch out for these kinda deals, i'm fairly certain seidio's waranty doesn't transfer to 3rd party sellers completely.
I had purchased a battery from seidio previously that was DoA, and after a conversation with their RMA department getting my invoice number and all that, they said they will replace bad batteries from anywhere but since I purchased through seidio directly they would send me a replacement without having to send the old one back first (or at all, they just said to pitch it). The battery that was sent to me was tested with a full power cycle before being over-nighted to my door.
I don't know, it's something to think about. If I'm getting a quality piece of gear, and the service to back it. I don't mind throwing out an extra little bit.
I'm on my second charge. The phone has been off the charger since 12pm on Sunday. I am sitting at 70% on Monday at 2pm. I'm really liking the usage I am getting out of this. I did not beat on it too much yesterday, just a lot of normal use. I figure at this rate, I will have to charge it every three or so days. I'm hoping it improves after a few cycles, even though I've only charged it twice so far. I'm going to run it down to 30% or so before the next charge....who knows when that will be lol.

Double battery lasts 2+ days...I don't have to worry about listening to too much music and plugging in every night or during the day.
Great customer service from Hyperion in the USA.
(I broke the plastic back while unpacking and they quickly sent me another.)
Of course it makes the phone thicker which I actually like cause I have big hands and it won't fit in cases but to not worry about battery running low it makes good sense for me.
mine lasts all day easy i cant run it down i ca t be heavy user i always thought i was

I feel the same. 3 Oem batteries total and oem battery charger. I can go a week without recharging.
Those extended battery doors are ugly and of low quality finish and I like having a pretty phone. Plus there are no cases that fit that door except if the manufacturer releases one for the product and that will limit you to that case or perhaps a slim bumper.
I spend so much time driving, Having a car dock (ProClips) keeps me at 70% average all day. Driving from one place to another. 15 minutes here, 10 there. Keeps it topped off
Besides being hideously ugly I absolutely love it.

Heh, couldn't agree more. Hyperion is a highly respected company in electric R/C car racing, so I'm sure it's a high quality battery.
But that sucka is big!
I have the Hyperion for my S3 and never got the hours that I did with the OEM batteries so with the Note 2 I decided to get the OEM batteries and as the previous poster mentioned that. Provides all I need.

if you're the type of person who can't manage to charge your phone every night, I assume you have a backpack of sorts you carry around with you. put it there, and bring it out when you need it.
i realize this wholly a personal thing, and it's your life, blah blah blah...but really though, just get a battery pack.
^^^ not to mention it doubles the weight of the phone and without good cases for these, you better have insurance when you drop your phone.
Yeah I'd get that battery pack and a second oem battery.. Done with the whole extended battery experience (had one for my s2 and hated it,. And didn't even need all the juice
Plus I just dropped too much money on cases for this phone.

I missed out on the first few waves of the ZeroLemon 9300mAh extended battery and when they finally were back in stock on amazon.com, I figured since it was nearly June, I'd just wait for the long-awaited rugged case to come out. After reading Vectron's excellent reviews and his ongoing communication with ZL, I was eagerly anticipating the rugged case for the big battery because I knew I'd never again use the TPU that comes stock with the 9300 now, and I wasn't satisfied with the "Denfender" mod. Also I was hoping that ZL would bundle the new case with the battery.
Not particularly confident that I'd receive a response after reading Vectron's posts, I still sent an email to ZL the other day inquiring as to the bundling of the battery and new case and I did receive a response:
"Customer Service ZeroLemon
3:10 AM (1 hour ago)
Hi,
This will be offered separately from the battery. We are looking at July release at the moment as we are working out some fitment issue of the case.
Best Regards,
Joey"
So for those waiting for the new case, it looks like another 4-7 weeks. Plus, there will be no bundling of the battery and the new case.
Phooey.
I was hoping to order one soon.
Oh well, if they are taking time on fitting it, maybe they can also line up different color options in the interim. I would like red & black or red & blue.
Did they ever come out with one? I've been searching lately (just bought a ZL battery myself) and can't find a thing.

Hello ZeroLemon Fans!
Just like to give everyone some updates here.
Galaxy Note 2 case production is finished and we are waiting on the completion of the holster which will be done this Thursday, ready to ship on Friday Oct 12 to our authorized reseller, Bastex Wireless. Look and feel will be similar to our current Galaxy S3 and Galaxy S4 cases.

I stopped using mine. The battery is great but it just weighs down the phone too much and the case is already huge.
It is significant for those of us that use the battery.

I'm not sure everyone will agree with you
For me the weight is a non issue as ive been able to lift a half a pound since i was a baby and would have expected more people to be able to do the same. All the nonsense of thinner and lighter blows my mind
Cant wait till the extra protection gets here. Been waiting on this case for almost 6 months
gNOTE2 rolling in the north
If the regular battery and a case lasts the entire day why would you add the extra weight and potential extra damage if dropped?
With the rugged case I'm sure I'll be using it more with the extra protection as I wasn't impressed with the stock case and it's finish fading.

Thats just it, if you actually use your phone you can drain the battery easily in 4 hours. I have at least 10 apps i can only use while at home after work because they WILL drain the battery rediculously fast. Now on the flip side if its a really busy day at work and i have data and such turned off i can have 90% left when i get home. But thats only if i dont use it.
The dropping it with the extra weight part doesnt concern me as im fairly careful with a $700 device

It seems like they've tiptoed back again on this; at least, I haven't seen it for sale yet, and their website apparently has entirely different dates. This battery is great, but waiting for the rugged case has been an exercise in patience. The Note 3 is getting a rugged case apparently right off the bat, yet we've been sitting with the previous version waiting for just the case itself for months.
Urrgh.

I would, but as I'm A: not married, and B: not a lesbian, I don't have a wife. :silly:
Also, I like my Note 2 just fine. About the only thing that interests me in the Note 3 is that the S-Pen works with the buttons. Otherwise, I plan on keeping this phone for another year, with the ZeroLemon battery; it would just be nice to not have to mod a damn case to give it more protection.

Apparently, they've at least come out with the extended battery charger (FFS FINALLY), but, at least on the Facebook page, there's been plenty of people asking where the heck the Note 2 rugged is, since they promised it what, last week? And no new answers.

Extra weight? It's a few ounces. If you can lift a can of soda I'm assuming you can manage to lift your phone.
The finish isn't fading from my original zl case and I was one of the relatively early adopters.
As for drop protection, my phone survived flying out of my car and didn't get a scratch.

Oh don't worry, very soon he will be rocking 10000 mAh ZL battery for N3, and a rugged case. I have a feeling everybody is going to get their rugged case before Note 2. I was joking before saying it would be funny to have release of N2 rugged case on November 1st to celebrate one year release of Note 2. Right now it's starting to look like a reality lol!!!
Btw, still no rugged case here... Do you guys realize that a first time I mentioned about rugged case (from ZL guys) was probably around early June time? That's 5 months of waiting for something that might... but anyway, I'm not making any judgment based on other comments or s3 pictures. Let's wait and see if I ever going to get it in my hands for review before the actual amazon availability. At this point it doesn't look like anything groundbreaking except for removable backplate to support different battery sizes and modded Defender mold.
It was actually in your first pafe of review in April

Anyone ordering this? a combined 7000 mAh sounds amazing... The specs say it will charge the s7 edge 1/2 way so it's like having an s7 edge with 5400 mah instead of the 3600mah.
Too bad the battery case doesn't charge wirelessly also. That'd be cool.
I searched the model # and found a few sites selling for under retail, but the sites authenticity seems sketchy.
For example,
$66 here http://www.compsource.com/pn/EPTG93...harging-Pk-Black-Eptg935bbugus-Eptg935bbugus/
or

I'm going to live with the 3600mAh battery in the phone for a while and see how it goes, but I had been using the Mophie case for my S6 edge and grown used to the extra bulk. It's not bad once you get used to it and the phone seems tiny and fragile when you take it out, but I never had to worry about battery life with it.
But, if I do look for a battery case, I will definitely look at the Mophie over this for a couple of reasons:
- Mophie charges wirelessly so I can just drop it on a pad at night (or wherever)
- Mophie has a chin - I hate how easy it is to hit the back button when picking up the phone
- Mophie delivers more power per weight/volume to the phone because it isn't using an inefficient interface to supply power to the phone
Basically, I find the chin on the Mophie to be a feature. I frequently start the phone doing something and then put it down and may need to pick it up again. With the way the capacitive buttons are arranged on the bare phone I often hit the back button by accident thereby killing the operation I was monitoring. I also frequently have friends hit the back button when I hand them my phone to show them something, and the chin cuts way down on that.
Additionally, Mophie uses the wireless charging where it matters more to me. I could care less how the case delivers power to the phone because it will likely stay there for a while so "drop on, lift off" convenience is irrelevant. I care far more about how the case will connect to my "infinite supply of electrons" when I charge it. Realistically the phone will live in the case so the ease of connection to the case is a once a month kind of thing, but the ease of connection to the wall is an every day and sometimes twice kind of thing. Also, when I charge it I care a lot less about efficiency than I do when I consider how much weight of battery I have to carry around compared to how many electrons that battery will end up delivering to my phone. Efficiency is much more important between case and phone that it is between wall plug and phone.

samsungs own and would be interested if there was a zero leamon version.
if any of you have this, can it charge other phone? i mean if we put other smaller phone who have the ability of wireless charging also, into the battery case, will it charge?
I don't see why it wouldn't work. Not so long ago I made a mistake of getting my S6E+ a Samsung wireless battery case. My S7E charging via the aforementioned wireless charging case.
Nice! Should be postin' something like that too! lol! Yes, it should work fine charging it wirelessly.
Is the case water-resistant?
I go on long runs with my Galaxy S5 and always carry a spare battery. Even if it is pouring rain, I don't have to worry since my Galaxy S5 is water-resistant. Is the Samsung Galaxy S7 Backpack water-resistant also? It would make sense, but I have no idea what corporate Samsung higher-ups decided to green light. Also, if it isn't, does anyone know if other battery cases for Galaxy S7 (Edge especially) are water-resistant. Like the Morphie battery case perhaps?
The Mophie cases for the S5 and S6 Edge both have "keep dry and away from moisture" in their manuals. The S7 case doesn't have full specs listed yet, but they've already announced that it will support wireless charging so they've obviously tweaked the design some from previous generations - as to whether the new design goals included water resistance, only time will tell...
I like the idea but the one issue I see is that it will protect the phone except for the front. If they could have extended the 4 corners out a few mill then it would help protect the edge screen. I'm sure there will be better designs coming out soon
Going nuts waiting for Samsung to finally ship this thing. Running with a naked phone and it's killing my fingers due to the careful way I need to hold it to avoid unintended edge touches.
Come on Samsung. This is torture.
Could you not use an external wireless battery. May wait for zerolemon or mopine

Yeah.... I thought about that and then made the wrong choice of thinking Samsung would be motivated to have this ready for launch. Now I'm stuck in the loop. I can order another one from ebay and it may take several days to arrive during which the other one may show up. hehe
Of course what would it matter at that price?
Bought a Steck to tide me over after calling Samsung and getting word that their battery case is delayed until 4/22 now. Really?
Wow 4/22?? I placed my order last week and they said it was shipping mid-March and then got an email yesterday saying it was on backorder. I considered cancelling but I got the 30% off deal on it so I'll wait. In the mean time I'm using the Spigen Tough Armor case which is working nicely.
Update: My battery case is arriving today so that backorder seems to be cleared. Can't wait!
Nice! Update us please! I've been on the fence for too long only if mophie has silver...
Wonder if it would fit on an S6 Edge...
