Anybody tried the HTC 1500mAh battery in the Tmo HD2?

I finally got around to looking today, and it seems that there's an official 1500mAh battery to fit in the HD2...but I can't seem to find any reliable (other-than-chinese-ebay-seller) confirmation that it fits in the Tmo US version. I'm fairly confident that it will, but would love to know for sure.
Has anybody tried this one yet (or any other 1500mAh stock-size batteries), and if so do you get much more time out of regular use?
This is the one I'm referring to: HTC 35H00128-00M Li-Ion Standard battery

They probably got the size wrong. This site is saying it's the same battery that ships with the HD2. HTC never made a 1500mah battery for the HD2.

that would be perfect!!! a 1500 sized battery would easily grant me 2-4 extra battery life... and thats all i need tbh...
the stupid sprint evo phone... is coming with a 1500 battery.. and thats practically a replica of our hd2... so it makes no sense as to why manufacturers are unable to make a 1500 battery.. it is completely mind boggling...

I'm sure the evos battery will be bigger in dimensions, though. They can only fit so much power in lithium batteries. If it was possible to fit 1500mah into a battery the size of our HD2s, I'm sure someone would have done it. Lithium battery technology is the same it was 5 years ago... there's not much they can do about it right now.

Yeah, and if I'd bothered to just take mine out and compare the model number, I would have noticed that
It's stupid though that when you google that part number, there's a number of places listing it as 1500mAh.
I agree with the "they can only pack so much into a set amount of space" theory, but...there ended up being some higher-than-1500mAh (which is stock capacity) batteries for the TP2, that fit in the same space. However, I know that they probably put the largest capacity they could in the HD2 right from the start, it's obvious that 1230mAh part is barely adequate.

Check the link again , they just change to 1230mah .

Best battery for its size?

Whats the best brand/size battery for long life thats not that big? Or is it worth getting the huge 3500mAh one? Are there any SMALLER ones that are comparable?

I am using the HTC 2150mah and I would definitely say it's worth it.
Sent from my ADR6300

I use a potato with zinc and copper wires.

I have a 1500mah HTC battery and the 2150. I think the 2150 is worth it. The central hump on the battery cover is extended about the size of the stock battery out. I'd be lying to say it doesn't look a *little* weird at first but it's really not bad after you get used to it. The battery life is much better though so it's of course a trade off. I didn't experience much of any improvement with the 1500 battery but I didn't use it for too long.

2150mah
+1 on the 2150. I own the stock battery, the 17xxmah (I forget), and the 2150mah. I went through a period of going between the 17 and the 21. I finally settled on the 21.
It give it a little more bulk but I find that the phone is very easy to hold with the bump since the back of you thumb is on one side and palm on the other.

I popped a 3000 mah in mine and love it. Little thicker but it doesn't bother me at all.

I have the 3500, a 1500, a 2150 (which I gave my wife) and I bought 2 EVO 1800 which should be here tomorrow.
The 1500 is fairly good and worth the 10 bucks you can get it for.
The 2150 is not worth it IMO only because for not much more you can get the 3500.
The 3500 is definitely worth it if you can stand the bigger size.
I will come back and comment on the 1800's next week after I play with them a few days.

Who makes the 1800 batteries?

I got the HTC OEM 1500mah battery (used for another HTC phone but fits our Incs) on ebay from the seller bidallies. It was $14 and provides an excellent bump over the 1300mah stock Inc battery. It out performs the Seidio 1750mah battery that I handed down to my wifes Eris.
Best part about the 1500mah is that it does not change the size of your phone. I like the Inc in it's orig slim form factor. I tried the 2150 and while battery life was great I just could not get used to the thickness and added weight

Woah, for $40 you get two 1800 batteries AND that snazzy wall charger??
Also, uptime and awake time?
Is it worth it? I don't have enough on me atm to get the 2150, so that 1800 bundle looks REALLY nice.

I think its definitely worth it. I will be passing my 3500 on to my wife or sell it to my buddy. I have been up over 14 hours now and I still have plenty of battery left. Plus I keep my slim form factor

Well, ****, I'm sold. Haha. I'd LOVE to make it past 3:00 without being in the yellow.
I read some of the reviews on there and some people had problems with the case not snapping on all the way? Do you have that problem?

I ordered two 1800 batteries on eBay plus a charger for $22 should be here soon

Nope my case snaps fine, but back when I tried to put the 1500 battery in it was a tight fit.

Its the evo battery. I ran mine since day one and have loved it. No complaints and have never ran the stock battery so I dont know how that performs.

I bought the huge 3500mah one for 10 bucks on eBay, and it works great. Totally worth 10 bucks.

IMHO the 1750 from Seidio is complete crap. The stock battery lasts longer for me. Someone had a good link showing some tests that demonstrated that the "1750" was really not that capacity.
I am definitely interested in the 1800mAh battery and would like to hear how it works out. I have to carry both batteries to make it through a day with heavy usage. I'd love to just feel comfortable starting a day with a full charge and knowing I would make it back home at night with a little reserve left in the battery.

If the battery`s are no good, you have seven working days to return for a full refund under UK distant selling regulation.

The phrase 'if it looks to good to be true it probably is' springs to mind. They'll be cheap crap.. here's a good example of what a cheap battery can do

indeed.
If people want to buy a cheaper battery but one that wont f**k up your phone go to www.7dayshop.com ive been buying from this company for years and have nothing but praise for them and have never had any bad experiences, they might be cheap but everything they sell is guaranteed, im sure others on here from UK and Ireland and beyond will vouch for this company.

I have this battery and I think its capacity is about the same to the stock. ymmv

Isn't there a way to effectively measure it's capacity, or any other battery for that matter?

I have a Thunder AC6, it will charge virtually any battery and give it`s true capacity, this is one of the cheapest multi-chargers you can get, the only problem is connecting the battery to the charger, you will have to make a jig or something.
You can see it being used on youtube.

Whoaaa. This is a beast. Problem is, I suck at jiggling with stuff like that. But it sure seems to be the right tool for the job.

I bought this from Amazon.us and for the last 2 weeks using only Anker battery. They are not fake, very good on the contrary. With Green power on I had over 40 hours standby.

I have purchased 3 of them for my sensation and they are by far better then the stock batteries. I get on average about 15-17 hours of moderate to heavy usuage. I'm actually going to be getting the Samsung Galaxy S2 Epic 4g Touch on the 16th and hope that they make batteries for that phone to.

Best Battery for HTC HD2?

I bought my HD2 used and the battery doesn't really get me through the whole school day, (8-4:30ish) even if I don't really do anything on it, it drains pretty quickly. I've conditioned it and everything, but I think the best things to do would be to buy a new battery.
I'd like to buy from eBay or a reputable online retailer.
Does anyone have any great stories with any batteries?

Make sure out have the apps Juice Defender Pro, Screebl, and SetCpu (with a profile to run the processor at the minimum when screen is off). With these, plus official extended battery, I get between 24 and 36 hours on my HD2.

I use Typhoon CM7 NAND Android on my HD2 and I get easily through 2.5-3 days with moderate use (WiFi included) - my avg stand by is 2-3mA but sometimes it even goes to 1mA (rarely but it does).
You shld get rid of wm if you have it and make your HD2 worth it!!!!

I bought a battery which shoul have 1600 mAh but so big like the normal HTC battery with 1230 mAh.
I didn't feel that I had more capacity, it didin't hold longer than with the normal one.
So i bought the original HTC HD2 Power Battery with 2400mAh and it was awesome. I could easy work with the phone for 2 days without loading and i make a lot with it.
The disadvantage of the Power Battery is that its nearly twice as big as with the normal, but i love it to work with the phone without looking on the battery percentage

If want long work time and size does not matter - original with 2400mAh. And no "chinese" batteries with increased capacity.

dot bother with the ecell battery its a waste of time

I'm not doubting that that's an excellent battery, but when you got the 0mA reading you appeared to be charging the phone and 2 days isn't really that hard to manage if you only use the phone moderately. Also don't forget that the ROM itself will have some effect on the results.

you can buy several backup batteries for emergency
