Thank you!
I've just sent you a PM but I'd love to be a tester for this product!
This thing looks huge, but I am also interested in trying it out.
Can you make a smaller case? This thing is freaking huge
just got my pixel 2, would love to test it and post a review on my website as well.
I'd be interested in giving the case a try. It's not every day, but I've had a couple times where it would have been useful.
I'd like to try it out, if that's alright. I usually charge my phone before work (streaming music for 8 hours), and then again when I go to bed. If I can get an all-day use from a case, that'd be great!
I was having problems sending my PM, so if it sent multiples, I'm sorry, but if it didn't send at all, let me know!
Just received my Pixel 2 today, would be interested in this. I work in IT and am on my phone a ton throughout the day!
Please also make a smaller case.3000mah would be fine
I would be very interested in using and providing a review.
I will forward your concerns to our working team!

Design of phones has been reducing the chin so to speak. This looks like it may make the pixel 2 close to the size of the XL. Even though, I'm actually curious about it. I'm normally on the road all day using my phone for GPS, phone calls, and email when stopped. Even with the pixels awesome battery, I still need a charger by the end of the day. What's the durability of the case itself?
Does the headphone adapter work with the case on? Just thought of it.
Would love to test your case and review.
The phone and battery are protected by an TPU case which can offer production for your daily use and guard the phone from drops. The battery case will work with headphone adapter.

I remember seeing a few cases for the iphone 3 that had a flash built in to it but for the life of me can't remember where I saw them. Anyone know any companies that made/make something like that? Would like to contact them and see if anything is in the works for the Vibrant.

I love this idea! I just wrote the company to see if they are planning to make this for any other phone models in particularly the Samsung Vibrant. I will post any answers they email me back. Fingers crossed.
thats cool. keep us updated
Ouch.
$38 bucks for that bloated thing?
just paid 16 for the tmobile gel case, so 38 if its nice with a flash does not seem "terrible"

Good idea, but this thing is butt-ugly....
Oh, lordy, people. You spend how many hundred dollars on a phone and you balk at $40 for a case? How many unused apps have you paid for so far? I like the idea that using the flash wouldn't drain the phone battery.
I like the kickstand case. Thanks for the link!
I did email the company and they sent a reply stating they will answer my email soon. I like the case and its functional. I also have the Tmobile $16 rubberized case with I really like. If there is a flash case that will fit the Vibrant I probably would switch off depending on where I will be going and during which part of the day. Night, flash case, day rubberized.
Night mode on the Vibrant is awesome, but a flash is useful for close up pics (and as a flashlight). I wonder how they would integrate it with the Samsung phones since there's no camera button. I sent the link to a co-worker with an iPhone who ordered it, so I'll be able to get some feedback on how well it works.

This is interesting, try putting your Vibrant in to see how it fits. If it does and it doesn't obscure the peripheral holes I don't mind if I have to turn the flash on separately then take a pic using the Vibrant screen then turning off the flash, this still would be a great option. Keep us posted please.
Here's a couple others that have a battery as well as a flash so you can charge your phone while you use it:

http://fastmac.com/iv.php
I don't like flash anyway.
EWW..That is case is super ugly. Id rather have no flash than to put something that gay on my phone.
So any updates on that email from the company?
a better idea would be a replacement back cover that had contacts on the inside of the cover that actually touched the battery prongs so a seperate battery wasnt necessary.
it would keep the whole ordeal much slimmer, the only bulk would be the actual LED itself.

i have too admit this is pretty bad-ass.
First off there are NO camera phones with "flash". What they have are super bright LED lights that turn on when the shutter is pressed and turn off at the end of the exposure. LEDs can run a long time on a set of batteries so all they need to do is put an on/off switch on the thing. Turn it on, take a pic, turn it off, there is no need for it to "flash" since the power drain of a few extra seconds on it is insignificant and make no difference to the overall exposure on our devices. So a rubber case with an on/off button, not hard to design.
Hi, there...
Friend of mine has an iPhone 4 battery case, like this one http://www.exogear.com/products-iphone-4.html
Now, I don't envy Apple phone users a bit, but am rather annoyed by the fact that so many companies produce the greatest number of accessories for 2, or 3 model that this company has, instead concentrating on all the other phones. The result being that I can hardly find a similar thing for my Note. Even when I was I was thinking about buying SII, I wasn't able to find anything as nice, except those cases/chargers in which you place your phone and then when it is full you can take it out and carry on with your life. But nothing which extends your battery life and becomes attached to your phone throughout the day.
The only thing I've found on the eBay is this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Slim-Li-I...ltDomain_3&hash=item2c661185fa#ht_5527wt_1163
Has anybody got any experience with battery extenders/cases for Note?

If I recall correctly, another member has one of these and said even though they claim to have 3500mAh, it doesn't even last as long as the stock battery of 2500mAh.
I don't have one myself so I can't confirm this but that's what they said.

There's a thread on Gold 3250mAh, my ekhm... "tests" returned results very similar to the stock battery, but some users reported feeling it lasts longer than that
looking for something like this?
It's a Chinese battery pack for the note ,can give about 45% extra charge,has a kickstand.
the quality is alright ,the price is 42$ ,and as you can see from the photos I haven't used it much and it's gathering dirt.
I can't remember the name ,nor can I find the box ,sorry.
but anyway , yes those things exist.
Thanks, all...
Yeah, I wasn't after something I'd use with my Note like all the time...
But, if I were to go somewhere for a longer period than a day and there was a chance I might use navigation quite a bit, or even driving for 4-6 hours with navigation on all the time... Esp. since someone here said that the Note doesn't charge as fast as it gets depleted battery during constant navigation use in a car.
So, a behemoth like this one would come in handy in situations like this...
might I suggest these

Found this on ebay. I think similar but different color I'm purchasing and will review after a couple of days use. Sorry can't post link! Search r27 case for note
Since these charging battery cases add more bulk to the phone, why not just cash out on a Mugen 5400Mah battery? It does add some bulk, but tests I read somewhere showed that it received 9 hours of continuous screen time which is just ridiculous!

I don't think the problem is whether or not people are willing to cash out on Mugen, the idea is to find an alternative.....I myself am not willing to have my note THAT bulky, yes the external battery cases are a little bit bulky but compared to the Mugen its definitely more aesthetically pleasing. I'm looking for an alternative to making my Note last a bit longer, and also not ruining the sleek design of this beautiful phablet .

Give us an update about what kind of battery life you see. Also some pics would be appreciated.
I'm not inclined to believe the capacity claims, but if it at least offer close to 3000mAh that would be decent.

Update
Update on my experience with this case. I already tore the leather for the flip front cover, so to me that part is poorly made. I simply cut it off since I didn't want to see that tear all the time. On Saturday upon receiving this case I fully charged both my phone and the case and started using them both around 4 PM. With normal use for me the case died today around 10 AM and I have been running off of the phone battery every since.
I can't say that I'm going to use this case every day as it makes the phone a little bulkier than I would like, but for me, this case will come in handy more often than not. Overall, I am happy with my purchase thus far with the exception of the tear. We will see how it does after several charging cycles.
I'm not too much of a fan of flip cases. They conform you to use the device as a book or in landscape orientation. If they made a version that would flip upward like a traditional paper note pad as opposed to off to the side. definitely buy it if one was made like that. I wish mophie would make their charging cases for the note 2.

ROFL... I think I'll pass. That thing is hideous... I'd rather carry around a brick-sized battery pack than put that on my phone. In fact, that's all it essentially is... A battery pack and phone held together with a silicone protector. NO THANK YOU.
Nice, I would buy that right away, no mention of a price point at this time?

It's just ridiculous that they have that at all. They could have shaved off 500mAh of the battery or just made it a bit thicker so it would be flat on the bottom and not look like that. I mean. I'm interested in a gigantic battery pack being strapped to the back of my phone. I'm not terribly concerned about looks, but it looks like the phone is hanging dong there. Hard pass.
I've gotten ZeroLemons for several other devices, going all the way back to the Note 2. I've never seen a case design like this from them before. It's insane that someone let it off the production line like that.
Just received this case today, not much taller than my Nexus 6P even with the "Dong" on the bottom.
Power bank > this hideous thing. That truncated triangular thing at the bottom makes it look even more ridiculous.
got a PM from Zerolemon a while back....
Turns out, they don't like it if you talk about their product without enthusiasm.... Never heard from them again

Holy mother of........
If you make them Orange you could build a house with enough of these!
But 8500mAh is quite a lot, are they intended for GPS navigation during the 24h of le Mans?
Still, seems like an interesting piece of technology and could come in handy in some situations.
What is your definition of "review" ?

Hehe, I reserved my opinions until I received the discount code.. I guess it was the right move!
Sorry to hear they went silent on you. Did you ever give them your e-mail? I had lost contact with them, wondering if they'd PM me the code, and I recently got an e-mail. Perhaps they sent you one and it got lost in spam or something? If not, then very un-cool on their part. They also told me it would be "free sample". However, they sent me a 90% off discount code.
Never sent them my email, this was the only conversation we had.
I can understand the 90% off... They still need to pay shipping and stuff...
6400 mAh on Amazon, have not heard of the name before. I am still thinking about ZeroLemon, just putting this out here for those that like a smaller battery (less than 10,000 mAh)
https://www.amazon.com/Perfine-Exte...36917&sr=8-1&keywords=lg+v20+extended+battery
I may bite the bullet and buy it just to do a sort of review for everyone here. Double battery life sounds good. It already makes it through a school day (8am-3pm) and is left on 15% with a lunch top up so this will probably help out in that aspect.

Ah ok, did not think to look in there, thought it was solely focused on ZL. I know no reviews I can find either, but as you can see my search skills are not top notch at times lol. But not sure if 6,400 will scratch my itch, I eat the LG battery up in not time, mainly because I keep the screen at 100% 24/7. Plus, with my Note 4 it worked great and not in mind of trying a new brand.

Phenomenal product. Yes, big and heavy. Stick it in my jacket pocket and even sometimes let my friends use it at the same time as I'm using it because it has 2 usb and 3 micro usb ports.
I'm interested, but what kind of grip does that have? I don't want a slippery back with no option for a case. I'm also not to keen on silver. Wish it was a soft touch, grippy black back.

That's some pretty below average battery life you got there. I get through my school day from 6am to 4pm (including bus rides) with 50-65% left. This is with constant snapchat and music usage and occasional videos and games.

im getting about 5-6 hours sot on average. That is with data, wifi, and sync on. I also turn on location only when i need it. My highest was 7 hours with only wifi on.
I'm curious about it but if it's not going to ship until February I had might as well wait for the Zerolemon.

I was going to get the zero lemon, but honestly i like the look of this one as its not as bulky and brick like as the zero lemon. I know zero lemon is the know battery of choice, but i will take a chance as i have heard and read good thing about hyperion as well.
