Couple of days. This is after two charge cycles. Using 4.04 and Franco kernel. I think it can handle one full day of even my heaviest use, so I'm happy.

Man I just ordered this battery and I'm not impressed at only 3 hours of screen on time. So many are getting 2-3 with the 2100 mah battery from Samsung. I hope it increases more after a few more cycles.

Edit: just noticed that was with wifi on also. I get 2-2 1/2 hours of screen on with 2100 mah from Samsung using 3g and 4g only. Guess I will find out first hand tomorrow.

Great thread. I am a super heavy user and just got my Seidio last week.

I am on cycle 3 and the battery life has improved. I do hope I can reach 5 hours of screen time on LTE from texting, google reader, instagram etc. No video or games.

I just flashed gummy 1.0 this morning and this is my results so far. 1.75 hours of screen on time and 50% remaining.

I did download 500MB on LTE with this while setting up my phone, so I do expect the bottom 50% to last longer. I will report back when my phone reaches 5%.

Underwhelming results.

Only got a little more than 3 hours screen on time.

I'm hoping it keeps improving.

I am running a live wallpaper and am overclocked though.

I'm really loving this battery. Best $100 I've spent in a while. I got the nfc battery and the case too from seidio.

Yeah 4 hours screen time is well within reach. I use the hell out of my phone now and just ignore the battery. It is very liberating. I'm also a big fan of the Franco app and kernal.

Results from yesterday. Getting better, but a lot of that was on wifi.

Cool, I didn't realize they now included NFC support. That's the only reason I didn't get one when they first came out, because I use Google Wallet quite often. Just ordered one!
 
What I find weird about this battery is the fact it doesnt seem to increase the life drastically for its size. The stock battery on the TB didnt last long at all but when I put the extended battery on it that sucker lasted forever.
 
Hey all,

I'll get 10 hours with heavy heavy use.... sometimes less. I always have a hot extended battery on the charger so I just swap once when I get home.

It's worth the hassle....

Later,

Matt!
