I was in Verizon today trying to get an extended battery for my finance droid 2 global. I got the extended battery for my X and it really isn't raised to much maybe an 1/8 inch if that. My question is how thick does the battery stick out of the back of the droid 2? The Verizon wireless clerk said it sticks out as thick as your finger which would be like 3/4 inch which that's crazy if she's being serious. can someone please help me out. Thanks

From the pictures I've seen its prob a little under 1/4 of an inch. In any case its a negligible amount. Not nearly that of a finger.

tappin and a talkin

I have a D1 with the ext battery and door. It is barley noticeable.

Can someone provide a picture of this?

Don't mean to hijack this thread, but I just bought an extended battery for my Droid X, with the deeper door, at Motorola.com for just under 30 bucks, postage included, with the code GIFT4U60.

Found the code on another forum and it works for all of the items on the Motorola site.

Hope it helps some of you here....

Cheers,
Bob.

I just installed the extended battery for my D2G and it sticks out maybe less than 1/8th of an inch.

gift4u60 works at Motorola Home - Motorola USA (purchased handled by Amazon). Great deal!

My purchase is in transit. I thought this was too good to be true but it isn't. The discount works and im 150 down in my pocket. I purchased tons of stuff though...

These arent my pictures, and some of them are from a DX, but the size of the bulge is the same.

I don't understand why people by the extended battery. Get an extra battery from Amazon for around 8.00

Get a charger off of ebay for 5.00 and you're good to go.

For me it's simply a matter of convenience -- I dont really want to carry around an extra battery and charger, and the $30 is worth not having to think about it.

thats what i been saying... but thought id try it out and its actually not that bad. i thought it would buldge out a lot more than it was... it wasnt like that but you can tell its there but it looks great at the same time unlike the sedio.

darn it my bad. i forgot to take em but i found a thread where someoen did post pics.

Does this "slight bulge" make it kinda a tight fit in the cases?
just wondering if it might rub too much...

r, john

it depends on what case you have. i cant speak for the otterbox but there are a few on verizons website that fit both the extended and the stock battery. i got the transparent one but i ended up not using any of the cases i bought (3) because i use the car mount more often that i used to

Taking my batter back makes the phone too heavy
