I agree with most of this, but am going to keep the battery mod for when I travel.

Would you be willing to snap photos and post them of the chargers? Or a model number of the chargers?

Fair enough. I just don't like having to worry about cords when I'm traveling. Just personal preference, but I totally get why people like external battery packs.

They were the included chargers for the LG V10 and Galaxy S7 Edge.

Any concerns that using the battery mods will ultimately decrease your internal battery's life? Continuous charge/discharge cycles is what kills batteries. By having the mod on there, you are literally always charging and discharging. Even if your phone is at 100%, its trickle charging.

That's what the service plan is for

Out of curiosity what are the reasons why you guys got the battery mod? I am almost already near a plug but figured most people don't have USB c so there would be no one to virtue a cable from. That was my justification fit the mod.

I got it for the added power I came from a v10 that was a battery sucker in standby the zforce is very lean on ba6ery in standby

It think it just needs to be a fast charger that will make the phone say turbo charging. I've gotten it to charge the mod fine with any charger I have that does that.

I did get it to pop up saying it was turbo charging.
I had to use the Verizon branded usb c fast charger. It uses the usb c to usb c cable. And it worked charging my battery mod too.

Adding wireless charging is huge.

For me it was sometimes at work I don't have access to power/outlet. I can be there sometimes up to 24 hours. I have a few battery packs but they are heavy and space and weight are a premium. I will carry this phone on my belt in an Otterbox case/belt clip. I broke down and ordered the Otterbox Defender today. I'll carry the battery in my go bag. The only pain will be having to take the case off to attach the mod.

Plus I'm kind of a tech nerd and I think the battery mod concept is an awesome thing. I can't wait to see what else they come out with.

I was going to get a cheapo tablet to play games/watch videos on to "preserve" battery life but now I'm thinking I might just get a battery mod. I'm not big on having multiple devices since, well, you need to carry the device around with you to use it.

I actually have both the Tumi and Incipio batteries. Both are the wireless charging. I plan to wrap or modify one in a different color. I like the way the Tumi looks stock but the Incipio does feel a little better. The Tumi has that gun metal type stainless look. Not sure which one I'm going to wrap yet. I use either one of my battery mods a good bit. Although a little heavy, it's not too bad. Really overall the Force is still relatively thin or in line with other larger screen phones. What I like most is that either battery when attached looks like the phone came that way. I see so much potential for these mods. I'm hoping a company will revamp the current battery mod and make a slimmer version even if it doesn't have quite the same output as the current batteries have. The Force already has one of the longest battery life you can get so a slimmer version of the battery would still give you all the extra juice you will ever need in a days time, maybe even two days. I believe it would be rare for any of us to go more than two days without hooking up the phone and battery to the turbo charge anyway. Plus all the times in between when you plug in when you're in your vehicle. A thinner battery definitely should be something that should be offered you would think. I may be totally wrong. I just hope the mods take off and keep coming so we all have options.

Ok dumb question, but does the incipio wireless battery mod come with a wireless charger?

 

[benjamminh]

^ No it does not.

I wish. That would have been awesome.

No, but if you find one, let us know.
