I just bought two PoweGen Premium batteries for my X10 (they are actually labelled X1). I am extremely happy w/ these batteries. I believe that they actually last longer than my original X10 battery. I bought them thru Amazon for about $24 each.

Actually i bought at Kota Kinabalu, Sabah when on my visit there. I dont know where to find this battery at KL but sure KL got more choices and cheaper.
Now its been 1 day 16 hours since unplugged. Pretty heavy use. Lots of calls, sms, poweramp, etc.. Just finish 3 hours straight youtube & browsing using wifi and still got 30% juice.

Search: "Sprint Epic 4G AT&T Samsung Captivate Extended Battery"
It says that the seller is shipping from Texas and the batteries are from China (of course) and that they will soon have additional case models for the pregnant battery.
Interesting.
Someone be a guinea pig ! !

Includes the battery and door !
I don't see how that would work on a captivate...
The actual one for the Captivate doesn't go on sale till the 15th of January. The guy selling them has one on his testing it out right now. It doesn't look like the pictured ones.
You have to be careful with these low cost chinese batteries. I got burned when I bought an extended life battery for my acer laptop. Acer wanted $150 for an 8 cell battery but found one on ebay for $65. So I jumped all over it. It charged fine and worked great...one time. The first time I used it I got like 4.5-5 hours on one charge which was correct as I got about 2 hours on the 4 cell stock battery. But the battery only lasted for about 4 or 5 charge cycles and by 10-15 charge cycles it wont even last 1 hour. Buyer beware, you get what you pay for.

I bought 2 batteries for $21 each from a US seller. they arrived today and are identical (and working).
http://cgi.ebay.com/OEM-EXTENDED-BA...uetooth_Wireless_Products&hash=item3a639a09c1
Charger is harder to find. Still only from HK but cheap. $5.99
http://cgi.ebay.com/BH5X-BH6X-Batte...439194?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2a0e978bda
So the batteries are exactly the same as the one in the atrix currently? It would be sweet if they WERE extended. I wouldn't mind extra battery life for $21.
so there is no need for that "extended battery door"?
Its exactly the same battery. Identical in every way.
Arrived on 2 days. I have been using the 'spare' and it performs the same. The door thing must be for the drpoidx which prob takes a smaller battery.
The last time I had a standard battery this big was my Treo 650!

heres the charger i got from amazon, looks / works just like the one came with the phone
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004EYSKM8
i also got a car charger
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000S5Q9CA
Just to clarify, the EXTENDED Droid X battery is the same as the STOCK Atrix battery. Buying this will NOT be an extended battery for the Atrix.
will this also work http://www.amazon.com/2300mAh-Li-io...1G/ref=sr_1_28?ie=UTF8&qid=1299095691&sr=8-28 ?

Most of the eBay listings give the capacity of the BH-6X at 1880 mAh, but the specs on the Atrix say the battery is 1930 mAh... wonder if they're 2 versions of this battery.

Was my biggest worry with buying this phone, would be awesome to be able to finally upgrade the battery
Battery Packs
There are 3000+ mAh battery packs available that have a short cable to plug into the micro usb port. While quite small, not really something you'd consider to be a daily driver.

with the right rom and power tweaks, I've found the battery to be sufficient. I text often, make numerous voice calls, read the news, some social media and other random apps daily. Lasts me from wake to sleep with no problems
I purchased a Unicharge 5600 mah external battery for 20 dollars off Amazon. Works well for whenever I need some extra battery. I can usually get about 7-8 hours from my One V (Airplane mode but with Wi-Fi enabled and with moderate camera use).

I bought the Chichitec 2500mAh extended battery pack and they work very well. I get on average a minimum of 4hr screen on with lowest brightness as oppose to 2hrs and change with the stock. I also use jucedefender and I rarely talk on the phone. I would recommend them.

I have that one, it isn't bad, but it isn't great either.
Typical Chinese quality (Samsung is spelled Sanmsung and Galaxy is spelled Galyxa when you actually get it).
Battery life is, well, I dunno. It's hard to say. My phone was at 57% charge, I turned on the extended case and without any use it charged my phone back to 100% no problem but the extended battery was pretty much dead. I'm sure it works better when both the phone and extended are charged to 100%. The AC/DC converter inside the case is VERY inefficient and gets VERY hot. Don't even bother attempting to charge the extended battery while the phone is in it, I'm suspecting it will catch fire or melt lol...
I like how it has a power button and the kick stand works. The case is very sung and everything lines up properly so for build quality I give it a 10.
The USB port pass through is CHARGE ONLY, data pins are missing so it kinda sucks if you use OTG devices or need to plug it into the PC to transfer files etc. But all in all you get what you pay for.
My friend has the Hyperion 4200mah with NFC. It works excellent, double the battery life. He usually gets 3-4 days with normal use out of the phone without charging (but that depends on person to person).
Here are some of my hyperion 4200mah stats

Hey guys, this august i will be celebrate second aniversary of wfs :laugh: Now i using CM 10.1 Owl Project. Every night before sleeping i plug charger. Then i woke up afternoon and i go outside. While i outside battery draining so fast. Even im not using much phone, only i open 3G and i put in my pocket. About 3 hours my battery shows %30-%40. Is it normal or my battery is dead? Sorry for my bad english.
Edit:
Also brightness at low.
A two year old phone having such a battery life is normal(My WFS is also 2 years old :laugh......if you want to,you can buy a replacement battery...I currently have a 1500 mah battery,but it's still isn't enough
So my advice would be to buy a battery with an even higher capacity,if you think of buying one

In all seriousness though. csoulr666 is right. Time for a new battery. Don't buy one from HTC though. They charge so much for a crappy battery.
