Anyone know of a reputable extended battery that fits with the standard battery door? I don't need much more...maybe 4000mah or so would get it to go all day with how I use it. 6400 and 9000ish are way more than I need and I'm not interested in doubling (at least) the thickness of the phone. Saw one on some chinese website at 3500mah, but pretty sure I don't trust it. I have the zerolemon replacements and I swap out as I go, but I don't like carrying them with me. I like to travel light. Thanks.
Im curious to know this too.
Ive had bad experiences with buying extended, but similar to stock size batteries. They tend to actually be lower capacity than stock... cheap pieces of crap with false labels. (Ex: my old phone's battery was 1650mAh. I bought three different 2000mAh batteries over the phone's lifetime. One was actually 800mAh, one was 1000mAh, and one was something around 900mAh.)

3 ways.
First, there was the fact that my phone went from 8hrs of typical usage to only 4hrs with same usage patterns and ROM.
EDIT: I had a Hyperion battery and it actually only gave me 3hrs!!!!! I also had a Bluegate Kobe and it only gave me 4. The third battery was an EVO and it gave me about 6, but it wasn't as good as stock.
A second way was that I used an app to measure my mAh (don't have the app name right now. Not installed now and can't find it, but it's a popular one).
EDIT: The app was Battery Monitor Widget. I used the stock battery first to get a base mAh based on my actual usage over a week. Then used the 3rd party batteries and did the same. The 3rd party batteries came out to be FAR less mAh than stock.
The third way only applies to one of the batteries (EDIT: The Hyperion I had). I removed the label and printed on the actual battery under the label was the true mAh, which was half of what the label said. (The sticker said 2200mAh, but the battery said 1100mAh)
Plus all the labels were cheap stickers. The batteries looked more legit online than they dI'd in person. In person, they look homemade and felt lighter than the stock battery. (MUCH lighter).
EDIT: To be clear, all of this was with my old phone, a Galaxy S2.
Also, that Battery Monitor Widget app didn't seem to work with the OGP, which is why I don't have it installed still.

The standard one isn't an extended battery though. It has the same mAh as stock.
EDIT: and the other Zero Lemon (9300mAh) requires a special back cover and makes the phone too thick. Like PS Vita thick!
This forum was made by the OP because they were looking for an extended battery that can use the stock back cover. ;]

Only thing is that they claim it'll last longer than stock (3140mAh), but it's only 2100mAh.
It makes me suspicious because if my past experiences and because my understanding of batteries is that higher mAh = more power.

" they claim it'll last longer than stock (3140mAh), but it's only 2100mAh."
That's one tip-off that there's something wrong here.
The other biggie is that they say the battery is FCC Approved. Which sounds real important, except, the FCC doesn't "approve" batteries in any way I've ever heard of.
The battery business is infamous for outright fakes, counterfeits, and junk. It isn't easy to get real prime-quality products at good prices. And the stuff from unknown vendors? Really, how many reports of battery fires and explosions does it take to make anyone worry about leaving a no-name battery or a no-name-source battery charging while you sleep?
I'd rather carry a hot-shot (USB battery) charger around "just in case".

Exactly as the title suggests I'm looking for everyone's opinion on the best stock size battery for the Note. I've been using the Mugen battery but at times the bulk seems too much and I'm interested in trying something stock size that gets me at least a little better than stock battery performance.

it is too expensive? any cheap battery for extend battery life of galaxy Note
I use the "golden battery", the sticker on it says 3250 mAh.. and that power stays at the sticker. It is roughly as good or just a tiny bit better than stock battery.
I get 3 hours 10 minutes maybe 20 minutes less or more each day of screen time on weekdays with stock battery. Let's use this as a standard for me.
With gold battery I get 3 hours and 40 minutes with a variation of 30 minutes more or less.
So it doesn't last 30% more as the sticker suggests.. but meh it lasts as much or a little bit more so I am not bothered with a 15 doller battery I can carry in my wallet as a backup

I was thinking about it, and it seems plausible that the best stock sized battery for this phone at this moment would be a 2700mah one. If you look at it, the Mugen 5400mah extended battery is just 2, 2700mah batteries linked together.
Until a revolution in batteries is made, I don't think we'll get a stock sized one with a better mileage .
different capacity with stock size battery
It's mean the concentration become higher...
just wondering.
you know the anker charger that comes with the bundle if you buy 2 anker 2700 batteries?
does it charge the stock battery as well?
im assuming it does cuz the batteries are the same size (right?)
just wanting to make sure.

I have purchased 3 of the 2000 mah XPower batteries! They work perfectly fine!! It gives me more life than the stock 1750 mah!
Also its the exact same size as that of the stock battery... So no worries abt an extra back door!
And I got 3 of them + the wall charger for the battery for less than $10 on ebay!!
So now i have totally 4 batteries - 3x2000 + 1x1750 = 7750 mah!!
Definitely worth it rather than holding a clunky phone with an extended 3000+ mah batteries!!

Thanks, I did see that one, although it comes out to $13 including shipping. I was hoping to find a $10 one that included shipping but I think that may be asking for too much So I'll probably just go for the 2 pack + charger for $10 shipped. That will give me 3 batteries total, which should be plenty of juice.
Anyways, I appreciate you taking the time to look. Thanks!

I'm not sure either, sacthegreat was the only person to respond and he/she said that these batteries did have more capacity. I think it would be very difficult to measure this anyway, since there isn't a direct measurement for mah in the phone. And because the difference in capacity is relatively small (~14%) I'm not sure how easy it is to notice in daily use; changes in how the phone is used could mask the capacity difference.
So I've made up my mind, I think that I'm going to try two different brands of batteries (+charger) and see if one is better than the other

The total comes out to $10 shipped, which is the same price as buying the two pack with charger. So hopefully this will increase the odds of getting at least one good battery
I totally missed the shipping in the link I gave, sorry as I had no intention of buying it and didnt realize shipping wasnt included. I would just get the 2 batteries as I dont think the extra 3rd battery is worth like 30% more but if you need a lot of battery, I guess you can go for it. I dont have any experience with this battery but do with Hyperions and those have worked great for me. I just keep the phone charged and make sure the spare is charged as well. If I did get a bundle with 3 batteries, I think it would be difficult to keep track of all of them and remember which one is charged and which isnt. I like the simplicity of one spare battery and the oem one
It's the stock size itself! And i got a little battery life than the stock battery on my phone! Not a big difference, but i could notice it!

Will these batteries work with the regular battery cover of the Atrix 4G or does it require a new cover like the mugen ones. If it needs a new cover thumbs down! If not I might buy 1
Let me know !
Also do you have any issues with the 2300mah battery's stats not reading correctly....I read that 2000mah is the maximum in which the phones hardware can read. If your 2300mah is reading correctly that's interesting.
I used these - very bad.
My atrix was not able to get actual charge state. Could see 100% and then suddenly fall to 0% and phone switches off. Or can see 5% for hours after full night charge.

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.

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.

Purchased a 2100mah previously to replace the 1450mah that was in my Sony Xperia Play.... Definately added a few more hours of play to it..... Hmmmm....
So I was going through eBay AU and I found this 2980mAh battery at 3.8V by a company called X-Level (not sure if it is by X-Level but this but check it out!) and I wanted to share this with you guys.
Here's the link -
I just ordered one and I'm going to check out if this does lasts longer than the stock battery 2100mAh at 3.8V. I'm also going to compare it to another 3rd party battery (with no brand, *l'll post link of this as well below) that is 2300 mAh battery at 3.7V. Has anyone tried this yet? I'm willing to post results as soon as I receive my battery.

You'd think at some point people would quit falling for these scams, but I guess not. There's no magical battery technology out there that allows a manufacturer to pack more capacity in the same size space.

Toshiba (if i were not mistaken) has now made batteries that has capacities of like 5200mah in a regular sized 2200mah battery. Meaning more juice in smaller pack.

Companies have been working on better battery technology and it shouldn't be much longer before they start showing up for sale to consumers. That said, this isn't anything more than a cheap knockoff with a different label.

So I was going through eBay AU and I found this 2980mAh battery at 3.8V by a company called X-Level (not sure if it is by X-Level but this but check it out!) and I wanted to share this with you guys.
Here's the link - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2980mAh-...-Samsung-Galaxy-S-3-SIII-i9300-/321012370740?
I just ordered one and I'm going to check out if this does lasts longer than the stock battery 2100mAh at 3.8V. I'm also going to compare it to another 3rd party battery (with no brand, *l'll post link of this as well below) that is 2300 mAh battery at 3.7V. Has anyone tried this yet? I'm willing to post results as soon as I receive my battery.
*Here's the link to the other battery I mentioned above - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/New-Repl...lePhoneAccessories&hash=item4d0b930581&_uhb=1

My curiosity got the better of me and I bought one. I don't see any better battery life with this compared to the stock battery. I don't even use it since there is no NFC. If you want to Paypal me the cost for shipping, you can have mine.

Completely forgot about this thread, my apologies. However after usage I can tell you that this may be a very good alternative to stock, cheaper, whilst offering similar performance. Definitely not 2980 mAh though, however it is not a terrible purchase for $10.
Also the battery seems to fall out very easy when you take the back cover off, it does not fit snugly.
