Extended battery

[RaRa85]

Well just like a thought. ZeroLemon comes in to save the day...if you need it. In the most bulkiest, brick-like form we have our first extended battery in the form of 10,000mAh. I personally would only use this when I absolutely know I'm going to be taking pictures and video for the purpose of making a personal video to share with family or here in the forums/YouTube. Definitely not for casual every day use unless you just don't mind the added thickness. But anyway, here's the link. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MQFT3SP?tag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU5650865
And not a bad price either.

Actually there was another extended battery before the Zerolemon made its appearance on Amazon.

I have my review unit on the phone now to test it out. Just came in today.

Zerolemon is also thinking about a 5,000mAh as well but nothing in stone yet.

Ok cool. What's the other one called? Also 5000mAh would probably cut down in the size enough as well.

I'd have to find the XDA thread but I think it was this one.

Perfine LG V20 Extended Battery BL-44E1F [6400mAh] Combo Kit (Battery +Phone Case Cover Black-Sliver ) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01NAJQ7F...ag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU5650937

This Zerolemon is definitely quite large but after my review period I'll probably only use it for random things when it's needed.

Wow thanks. That other one actually looks pretty good and still packs a serious battery pack.

"For the size of an OtterBox, with 3x the battery life!" Is how I think that looks.

1/3 of the way thru this 10,000 mAh battery. Unfortunately for testing results, I had to reboot into TWRP at 92% so my stats got reset. I was at 7 hours up and 2 hours SOT from 100% to 92%. The pics below are 90% to 67%.

Added together it would be about 29 hours up time with 6 hours SOT.

All on cell radio, no Wi-Fi.

Definitely worth it for traveling. I'm waiting for a battery case though.

How's the quality of the Perfine? Fit, etc? Also, anyone getting this battery kit should pay close attention to the instructions for use and charging. They are listed in the Amazon ad.

Not sure. I think 1 or 2 people over at XDA have it.

Yep, for sure. I'll use it for hiking, golf, etc. After this week or so review period I'll go back to the stock battery for day to day use.

Ordered one. With the Reward Credits I had, it only cost me $3.71. So... I'll post a brief review after I've used it per the instructions.

That Engrish. Much exceptionally good.

Personally I think I'd prefer the 10,000 mAh one because I'm a big user, especially with gps.

I think the Zerolemon had similar instructions in the package. I think it wanted the first charge to be 12 hours and then give 4-6 full cycles for best results. Something like that. I charged it for 7 hours overnight and going from there.

If physical size doesn't matter, good choice. It all depends on personal use.

I must admit, even without a case, the stock size is almost too large for me.

Too thick for pocket carry and looks like it weighs a ton, I'll continue to wait for more options.

The ZeroLemon 10,000 is very thick and heavy; bulky. If size is an issue, I'd suggest going with the 6,400 or carrying an extra standard battery. You can always go to the 10K, if needed.

It's hardly to thick for pocket carry. In fact, if my 8 year olds jean pockets were deeper, it would fit in his pockets. Batteries have weight and it's 3x the stock battery so yeah, it's gonna be heavy.

Just giving my opinion, simmer down, not trying to insult your intelligence.
