Extended battery takes forever to charge...

**freeky1** · 09-13-2011, 08:21 PM

The extended battery had a 20% charge when I bought it. I plugged it in at 5:00 PM and it just finished at 8:00 PM. Three hours to charge from 20% to 100%.

It's basically two batteries, it's going to take a while to charge. I'm going to guess the standard takes about 1.5 hours then.

That's a very fast charge time for a ~2800mAh battery to charge in.

Mine took almost 4 hours. You are lucky.

I just plug mine in when I go to bed and it is ready to go in the morning. Never worry about it.

Mine took longer than that the first time, but it is faster now...now I put it in the dock at night and no worries.

Yeah, I put mine back on the charger while I was sleeping. It will be interesting to see how long a charge lasts.

Mine charges 20% in an hour off my laptop power supply's auxiliary USB charging port. But this extended battery lasts ridiculously long. I've been Swyping non-stop for nearly two hours in Tapatalk with a 4G connection for two hours straight and my battery is still reading over 80% charge. I can't wait to see how accurately the battery meter is reading the extended battery's charge.
