    Question need help picking out a cheap battery for an evo 4g

    mo OEM one is beat, battery monitor says its around 800mah so I got a 3500mah off ebay but it seems to be floating between 1400 and 1800mah im not sure if im using battery monitor right but iv ran many full charge cycles and updated the mah to 1557mah witch is what it was reading measured witch I hope is ow I suppose to use it but back on topic if this reading is right i rather just run oem since ill only lose around 1000mah but the phone will be small again. any recomendation for a batter I could get for around $10 that will put out 1500 or more mah but still be oem size?

    Ever heard of a period? A little hard to make sense of your post to be honest.

    Try searching ebay. I purchased two 1500mAh batteries and a charger for less than 8 bucks. It's been sometime ago and I have not had any problems with either of the batteries. Also you can plug the charger up to AC or USB charging..

    Here is a link

    Don't expect a 10 dollar battery hold what it says its gonna do. Wanna be cheap, well, you get cheap crap. Buy a quality battery and be done.

    No I did not. I just wanted a couple of extra batteries in case I needed one. They both however lasted just as long as the oem and now that my oem battery is lasting longer I hardly ever use the extra's....

    I dont thats why im asking if anyone tested them if they say 2000mha maybe there 1500 witch is good enought for me. Im looking to get the evo lte but until then i have some runs comming and i use my phone for music but i would like a oem size batter so it will fit in my pouch.
