How are you using your extra battery?

So I received my promo yesterday. I plugged in the cradle and put the battery in it and didn't think about it till this morning. I woke up, saw my phone was at 34%, powered it down and swapped my battery with the fresh one in the cradle.

Since I'm a moderate user who typically makes it to the morning with 30-40%, I'm thinking I'll just use this method from now on, and not even worry about the fast charger unless I'm playing a game or doing something else that might keep the phone from lasting overnight.

Of course the spare battery has other uses on trips, etc... But I think sharing the charge cycles between the two batteries will be better in the long run.

How do you plan on using your spare?

I keep the spare charged and in my laptop bag just in case. If i know that I am going to be away from a charger for a few hours i grab the cradle and put it in my pocket. Saved my bacon already after an app process went crazy and drained my battery in no time.

How long did it take for the promo battery and sd card to come in

Mine took 22 days. Really not bad!

That's about what mine took too . A little over 3 weeks. Bought it on 10/30 and the promo gear arrived the weekend before Thanksgiving
