External Battery case - Moto X Accessories

Does anyone know of an external battery case for the Moto X? I heard of the offGRID™ Thin Battery Case released back in August..but can't find a trace anywhere. Any other alternatives?

I was hoping for a mophie juice pack but nothing on that front either..

there's nothing online but AT&T Stores have the case, it's $80 just call your local AT&T store to check stock, again nothing can be found online.

According to their Facebook post, Zero Lemon are releasing a detachable battery that works with a rugged case.

Have you seen it in real life? I'm trying to see how much bulk it would add to the phone

I have read that Qcell will be coming out with a Moto X battery in the future too if that helps.

One of my friend owns the extended battery case for his MOTO X but its quite bulky one so I did not like it that much and even expensive too so not a smart choice to go for....

It'd help a lot if we knew exactly which product you were referring to.
My friend has one too and it's not bulky at all. It's not too expensive so it's a fantastic choice.

Hey nhizzat,
Do you know the name of the one your friend has? Been looking around the internet for one, for a while

Who purchased Qcell external battery?

Any new news on a battery case for the x? I am unable to find anything really.

Went to an AT&T Store and saw the OffGrid battery case in person. It is massive. Makes the Moto X at least two times thicker, and goes for $80.
You can look here for more pics: https://community.republicwireless.com/thread/16255
Just CTRL+F 'offgrid' and you'll see pics

You are correct that was a corporate store, gave them a call and they didn't have a clue what I was talking about. Basically said it didn't exist...

I emailed zero lemon this weekend and they replied one would be released from them by the end of the month...

Moto X Offgrid Case
This popped up on ebay but this is the first I have seen. Not really willing to pay $100+ but just in case anyone is here is the link http://www.ebay.com/itm/151226853566?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

This seems like the last phone that needs battery help?
I usually unplug at 6am....and plug in at midnight with 30 or 40 percent left....with 5 hours or so of screen time. Must be extremely heavy users that need any kind of battery boost.

FINALLY! Extended Battery case coming! Powerskin

I was just looking around for any hope of an extended battery case and came across the Powerskin. The website says its coming in April... hopefully early April...
Only an extra 1500mAH, but its a start...

I'm no way affiliated with this site, just thought I'd share the news. I was pretty excited when I found it.

ive always wondered when they will come out with one of these like the iphone. i may get one
Looks great and the feature that it has to check the battery level on the back is really nice. Trying to figure out how much though, perks like that are not inexpensive. I'm rocking a 3500mah from an eBay buyer, so far it works perfectly fine; thats only with the cycles, yet it was worth the $14.
Looks good. I may pick one of these of for the wife.
I emailed them, and they said they hope to release it by the end of April. Their site says 59.99... I'll plan to get one after they become available. Will let you guys know how it turns out.
I emailed them, they do NOT support the kickstand:
"Just wanted to let you know that the PowerSkin will not support the stand for the EVO. If you have any further questions please feel free to ask. I will be happy to help you.
Thank you for your interest in PowerSkin"
Without support for the kickstand, which also acts as a heatsink, I don't want to know if it will overheat.

i don't know if anyone else remembers the leak of photos from back when the EVO was released last year But this was suppose to be the extended battery that was released back then WOW a year later and it finally comes out when alot of people have already bought a different kind or are looking at getting the EVO 3D this is really bad timing
Just posting this because I received the email from them that these are available for purchase with a 30% discount using the following:
Save 30% + Free Shipping at checkout with
discount code “POWERUP2”!*
With twice the power for your HTC EVO 4G, your life charges on. You can keep working. Keep playing. Keep moving. PowerSkin® is your go-to, go-anywhere, go on-and-on power source.
I looked at it as well but I also use the kickstand.

I third that. I'd love one of these babies too. I have a friend at work that reads Korean, but I dunno how that would helps get our hands on one of them.
Btw, these cost 39,000 won which translates to 35 usd.
Wow. Seems like they couldn't handle the press exposure. They've taken down the site, photos, prices, etc.
Btw, the design itself was originally made by Incase or some other company for the first ipad, wasn't it? Though I guess Apple brought the patent before launching smart cover for ipad2.
You can get one of these in red on ebay UK at the moment. It seems to be a copy of the anymode one....

Yeah, I admit it. I was just too lazy at the time. It might of been that I was in a 150sq ft room filled with electronics and my 5 & 8 year olds running loose as I tried to get my money back from sprint. Yet, come to think of it, sprint deserved every minute of their greasy hands on every one of their phones and glass cases. I should of just walked in and said have at it boys.
You can't order unless you are registered and to register you need a Korean social security number. This most likely means that it won't deliver outside Korea.
I lived in Korea for 10 years.
Go figure. Another case i want that's not available. Had a relative with one for the (insert patent # here)pad and thought it was a nice little case that kept the bulk down.
Anyone know where I can find something like this for the tab? I'm really interested, and since its been taken down, I'd like to know if there are any alternatives.
I found one on ebay. concerned about trying though

Yeah, I didn't want to say anything, but it just looked like two pieces of cheap leather slapped together and loose fitting at that. It could be good for someone.
Damn.... It's incredibly difficult to find a case I like. I like this one. Especially in baby blue.
I sent them an email just in case they'll ship them out on the sly. Hopefully somebody there reads/writes English.
Samsung should just give crapple the finger and approve this. Apple has already said they are not using Samsung for their next chip, at least I think I read that on Engadget.
I would have loved this case.

GSM Cases in the US?

Has anyone found any decent cases for the GSM GN in the US at all? A pouch or anything? I realize we have some VZW stuff coming in but since the VZW version is supposed to be thicker, not sure that would work well.
If not from a US retailer, what have you purchases from overseas?

Product Description
11/17/11 Update: Our case will fit both models. It was designed around the i515 (LTE) dimensions. Since the i9250 is less than a 1/2mm smaller it will also fit perfectly. You only run into issues once you get over 1mm in size difference on TPU cases.

Yes it will fit both versions but it will fit the LTE versions better as it was designed for those.

Hello guys i have a amazon credit and i wana use it up before it expire on wednesday. i wana buy a battery for my galaxy nexus which battery on amazon is good? i need a battery that will givee me a day with heavy usage. size dont matter. thanks for any help
I know you mentioned Amazon, but I wanted to give you an exact link to the product I bought. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120832462058&ssPageName=ADME:L:OC:US:3160 I really like this product, it only adds a tiny bit to the overall size and adds about an hour of heavy usage. If you are going to be using it non stop I'd recommend figuring out how long the current battery you use lasts under normal circumstances then approximate how big of a battery you would need from there.

This looks like a good deal for me but I had a question with the NFC chip. Will there be an issue with google wallet if I try to use a different nfc chip? I wasn't sure if they were somehow tied together from google/samsung. Thanks for the link and the great info!!
The NFC chip is located in your phone. The only thing on your battery is an antenna. As to the original poster: I've had this battery ever since they started selling and it's totally legit.

Yeah, most such ebay listingsa are fake / not genuine / ripoffs. If you're willing to spend that much, why not buy from Samsung directly?

As far as I know, shimshop is a good ebay seller to get phone parts/accesories from.

If you're in the U.S., I would say buy from Expansys since they're in Illinois. Shimshop ships from S. Korea.

I ordered a battery from each of these sellers. I ordered the one from eXpansys on June 29th and it still has not shipped. I ordered from shimshop on July 6th and I received an email stating it will ship Monday, July 9th. The shipping might take longer from shimshop, but at least he ships quickly!
I use the Hyperion 3800 mAh extended battery. I get insane battery life...... got from Amazon for like 17 bucks.
