Noticed you need more juice than me. MiLi has 10000-18000mAh externals too.

thanks im gonna check it

I have a Voltaic bag that I love - 16000mAh battery with big solar panels on the bag. They have a bunch of different models depending on what you need - www.voltaicsystems.com/

No problem! Also, if you want a solar powered backup, checkout Solio

I read some stuff on solar power chargers. I'm not so convinced about their actual recharging power. I'll go for external power pack for now.
Thanks for the replies. I'll repost here with details as to the performance of the battery pack I ordered....a Mili as kindly suggested above.

I had your same problem because of my traveling. I tried solar chargers and you can just use 'em to leave 'em home. I bought two batteries and car chargers (even the original Note ones - wich needs almost 1000mAh), then I bought the TurboCharger Proporta 7000mAh external battery. It rocks I charged my Note from 15% to 95% (power on) in 2hr 30mins. The TurboCharger fully charged an iPad 2, a Nexus S and a BlackBerry 9800 before die
Sent from my Xoom on EOS ICS Everest

how about those ebay single AA cell chargers? Are they any good for the note, or do we need a certain voltage or amperage minimum to charge?

Your biggest issue is going to be charging your Asus Transformer due to the fact it requires a higher voltage and USB 3.0 for charging.
Have a look at this topic on solar chargers for the TF.

Too big for me, wanna small light one and can fit in the jacket.
Why not just get some extra batteries and put them in your wallet

I'm a Noob, but I would of thought the following would be the best solution
official Samsung products as according to the Samsung manual, none Samsung batteries & chargers may damage your device:
Official Samsung Galaxy Note Holder and Battery Charger
Official Samsung Galaxy Note Replacement Battery:
I'm afraid I'm not allowed to post external links at this time, but if anyone would care to intercede on my behalf and post relevant product link or simply copy&paste to Google search.

I had 3 batteries with mine old Desire and it takes time to charge all 3 full. Note takes 3Hx2= 6H.
This time I wanna try out portable battery pack instead and can also charge other device too if needed.
I never used portable battery pack before and just dont know which brands are good or bad ones.
Anyway, I might go for New Trent one, small/light and 11000mah sounds good. Just the cheap price makes me wonder how good can it be?

Just ordered New Trent iCruiser IMP1000 11000mAh External Battery Pack and see how it works out.
And thanks all for suggestions.
The TeckNet iEP380-II 7000mAh I ordered from Amazon.co.uk appears to work fine.
It charged the battery from 40% to 73% in around 1:20 whilst I was watching TV tonight (including the last episode of Dexter, Eek!). I had the Wi-fi on, updated a couple of apps and played with the phone quite a bit, so I'm fairly happy with that.
I'm using Sanyo mobile booster 5000mAh costing around SGD$70~

I have this one too & can confirm that it's a great little battery pack. It's already saved me a few times in the 2 weeks that I've had it.
Momax iPower Pro Portable Battery Pack
Hi, everyone!
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note and I´m thinking of buying the Momax iPower Pro 8000mAh Universal Portable Battery Pack. Does anyone have any experience with it?
Or can you maybe suggest something similar?
Thanks!
I have ordered one of these http://portablepowersupplies.co.uk/portapowPremium.htm still waiting on delivery but it should work great for the Note when far from a wall socket.
I have the phonesuit primo...nothing but praise for this portable battery. I have only filled it up two or three times in the year that I have had it, but it doesn't seem to lose power over time. I use it for emergencies in charging my Galaxy Tab, and have used it to charge my Nokia E71 and a few friends iPhones. Looks nice as well.
I got mine New Trent iCruiser IMP1000 11000mAh and just for 1 week.
It came with around 75% charged (3 LED lighted) and icould charge the Note from 10-15% both times., still got 1 led left. Then I put it on charge overnight and it took around 14H before fully charged.
From 15% to 100% took around 2H 40min and less then Samsung charger that took 3H 30 min.
Thats is something weird about the 3 leds that display how much battery is left, donnu if it display correct about how much battery left its on the battery pack.
From fully charged, it drops from 3 leds to 1 led in around 2H charge time on mine Note. Donnu if the 3 leds are displaying wrong about how much battery is left, or I need to recharge it few times, before it reach full potential of the battery pack?
Or just the battery pack dont have that 11000 mah juice as the spec say its?
One minor problem, I have, is it cant charge mine bluetooth SonyEricsson MW600, it start to charge it for a while and then stop keep charging it. Had to unplug the microusb cable and replug it to charge it.
Well, gonna wait until recharge it few more times and see how it goes. Right now recharging it for 2 time and update later for more "reviews".
New Trent iCruiser IMP1000 11000mAh
i'm about to take the leap for New Trent iCruiser IMP1000 11000mAh , one last thing , any users who own one can say the pros and cons for it , it aint a cheap unit to purchase, im quite convinced about it but u know , just need the final confirmtion from xda community
cheers

From a full charge of the bank, how much percent can it charge the phone battery to from empty?
Its still charging my phone. And i keep using it meanwhile. I started when phone battery was % 15 and it still run.
Right now battery is 35 and device has lost half of its power. I wrote in the evening final result.

I picked this charger from Thailand for 1000 Thai Bhat just last weekend.
Can charge the note from 45-60% from 1%.
Feedback:-
Not heavy
Sits like an added cover
Charging takes close to 4-6hrs.(Will confirm after few uses)
Charging is mildly slower compared to USB charging from a laptop or your wall charger.
Great for travelling and can fit into your pocket along with the Note.
I confirm everything. Can add that it charged my note from 50 to 100 as well.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
The similar power packs I've seen for other phones name them so that the power is the total mAh you have with it attached.
ie. The Note has a 2500mAh internal battery, this pack has a 1000 mAh capacity, so in total your phone now has 3500 mAh of power.
Maybe this one is different, but judging from the size I'd guess 1000 mAh is about right.

Yeah, I dont either understand why people buy cheap crap batteries etc to their ~500€/$ phone. Like if you have the money to buy this phone you should have money to buy decent replacement batteries if you need them. But it is everyone's own decision if they want to risk burning their phone and in worst case scenario exploding the phone in their pockets. At least I wouldn't dare to risk my phone or my own health with cheap batteries. Peace!
tried a similar pack but with "4200mah". fully drains after recharging the note from 10% to 90% plus. and it takes forever to charge since input only allows 0.5A.

Wow Thank you,
i was considering buying this 4200 power pack but i think i ll just get instead an extra 2700mah battery.
I have bought powerbank with 5600mAh it takes little longer when charging cause output just 1A :silly: but it can fully charged my note for two times
It does really 1000mah inside? And also for other brand with 3500? Because im thinking of buying either 3500 power bank or 5400 extended battery.

What's up everybody, I just ordered these & hoping they'll do the job. I've ordered from them twice before (nexus one, evo 3d), the batteries in the past have held up pretty good but I don't think these have nfc :/ I ended up ordering these cuz' the qcell nfc enabled ones were sold out/unavailable so I didn't wanna' wait, plus I haven't seen a review on these yet so I said eh, I'll try em' out. If you guys are interested in purchasing some for yourselves I've included the link below, the only thing is that you have to pay using google checkout :/

I always use the supplied wall charger that comes with these so Idk, lots of the extended battery reviews on here are the same voltage & they seem to be doing pretty good.
It's not the charger which matters but the phone itself which charges the battery, it's aiming for 4.3V as that's what it thinks it should have as the stock battery is designed for that. Although I haven't heard a single case of these 4.2V batteries having problems with being charged with 4.3V, that last part can be changed in the kernel and the charger chip driver. I'm getting some knock-off cheap battery myself so I'll see how it goes. This particular one seems quite steep in price @ $30, with proven ones like the PolarCell 2400mAh going out for half the cost.
you won't see the affect right away from overcharging. I use to play with a lot of batteries from RC, overcharging something we use to do get slight edge and boost at start. but it does have long term damage to batteries, specially lithium based. some cheaper batteries even catch fire.
Alright guys, got the batteries in the mail today, charging one & will report back later

Li-ion batteries have an overcharge protection circuit built into the battery pack itself and should prevent this from happening. If everything is working as intended, it should be impossible for the phone to overcharge a battery. That's not to say the protection circuit couldn't fail itself.
And I too played with RC batteries and you really can't compare those batteries with these. Different types of battery with different methods of charging.
It just keeps getting better & better

Extra Battery or Power Bank

Just want to ask what you guys think is more worth it to buy...
Extra battery for Note or a power bank.
Extra Battery:
1. Open and close of back cover. More annoying when you have an external casing.
2. Requires one by one charging of batteries.
3. Only for Galaxy Note.
Power Bank:
1. Universal power bank. For future use once new phone.
2. Simultaneous charging.
3. Will charge phone and will take time. Not ready ASAP.
Thanks.

I'd say swapping battery only takes like 1 min. The biggest downside for me is that you can only charge the battery when it's in the phone.
Even though it should be THAT hard to make an external charger, if there isn't one already.

That would certainly be a very good idea with the external charger, I sure need me one right now.
I bought a Hyperion battery and Hyperion battery charger/dock on amazon a while back and either swap back and forth or dual charge. It works out great.
99% of the time the phone is usable. Meaning I'm never worried about the battery dying. Also its handy on road trips to bring multiple batteries

Thanks, that's a neat review, I think I'm gonna let myself be tempted with the extended battery and kickstand cover; does it really adds extra thickness to the Note if you want to carry it in the pocket of your jeans?
As I said, I quite like the extra shape - I don't feel I'm going to drop it so much, and for me, in your typical jeans and jackets, I've had no problems. It feels more reassuring somehow.
My next job is to see if I can store a tiny little usb cable within the spare space!
But yep, the new appearance is not a minus for me, and the battery life plus stand are massive, massive pros.

I got completely lost here, which battery is being recommended again ?
Click on my link to another thread about three posts up, in that posting I recommend a power bank and also what I consider the best genuine 5,000ma battery (ebay seller: gps4less)
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
why not get both? Plenty of deals were on over the weekend.
7800mAh Probox
I recently got this model while in Thailand.Although I didn't fully test it , The looks are good, Its using Sanyo cells.It also says the total losses of the conversion is around 40% (external 3.7-5V boost and internal 5-4.2V buck),thus effectively available capacity is ~ 4500mAh - which should be ok for x3 usage.This one got 2 USB output ports too.
I've both. Stack of spare trees. Plus newtrent pack, which is great. Charges 5 times
From the man in your attic...
I vote for powerbank, just to future proof yourself. Spare batteries are nice but how long do you plan on keeping your phone? There are definitely plenty of options for power banks such as ravpower, anker, or newtrent.
Bought a powerbank but forced to buy 2 cheap batteries from ebay. My note batteries are getting fat... this is not safe...

How long does it take for your charger to charge the 7000 battery? Im curious about limitbreak charger as well. Thats the most important thing I need to know. I might just have to buy 2 7000mah batteries, let one charge the day before use and I will be good for a whole week, lol.

Its more convenient to have 2 ZL, using the first one while charging the other one, then swap. I have 2 chargers, the 300 mah and 450 mah, but both takes 24 hours to charge anyways so doesnt matter.
If you only have 1 ZL, the advice i can give you is just go back to stock while youre charging the ZL.
I wanna share my set up aswell, when im home or at work im using the ZL since thats the tome we use our fone the most, but when im gonna go out with my friends or partying , im gonna go back to stock and a spare battery in my pocket, so in this way you can still show off your amazing case that you have lol.

I agree, 2 ZL's are the way to go. Fortunately for me, I do not have a case yet, or anything....everything is all stock. I was thinking of going with the otterbox case and modding it to fit the ZL battery. I just discovered that ZL said that they will make a "rugged" external case like the otterbox but it will probably be in June some time.
Either way, I have DECISIONS, lol. But can you point me to the link for the 450 external charger? 24 hours to charge wouldnt hurt at all (if one has 2 ZL batteries)

Yeah i emailed ZL about that rugged case and yeah they said its goin to be june, you can also check the Laza case in amazon, it fits the zl, but i still prefer the ZL case coz its much slimmer.
And as for the 450 charger, I actually got that charger when I bought the 2 slim 2200 anker batteries from amazon, i think it was $19.99 the charger and 2 batteries. But remember, that charger doesnt have the thing you hook up on the wall socket, its a usb charger, but i bought this litte thing so i can plug it in on the wall, heres the pic of what im talkin about.

How long does it take for your charger to charge the 7000 battery? Im curious about limitbreak charger as well. Thats the most important thing I need to know. I might just have to buy 2 7000mah batteries, let one charge the day before use and I will be good for a whole week, lol.

Just to add my 2 bits, I seem to have a slightly updated model of your charger that I received from my last Hyperion battery purchase. Stil dog slow @ 350mA±50mA, though. HTH.
Mine recharges from about 10% to full in about 6 to 8 hours in the phone.
MD4 stock rooted odexed, modded
According to the instruction from ZL, they advise us to charge the battery with original charger. Do you think it's not good for the battery to be charged with external charger which is not original?

Can you charge the ZL 7000mah with the charger in the image you attached? Where can we find a USB 5.0V so that the output can be 800mA? or is it just the normal usb cable like the cable from the original charger?

so has anyone successfully made a mod for the ZeroLemon Extended 7000 mAh battery for an external charger? and if so could you show how to make it?

Zero lemon sells an external charger for extended batteries, as does Anker. Beware- the chargers look the same, but the Anker will not charge the ZL7000 / Anker7200 past 88%.
The ZL extended charger-
Charges via USB or installed in charger.
The ext charger is slower (600mah) then via the USB. 1000mah.
It takes 12hrs to charge battery on charger, and only 8 hrs via usb to phone.
If I've helped you, hit thanks!

It depends entirely on the output of the charger used.
I have the ZL external charger and it offers two charging options. With the battery on the charger, the output is only 600Mah taking roughly 12-13 hrs. If you use the usb cord and charge the battery in the phone, the charger output is 1000mah taking roughly 7-8 hrs.
Hit thanks, if I've helped you.
