Spare Battery - On Ebay?

[Chewi863]

I was in a Verizon corporate store today and bought the car dock and wanted to get the extended battery, but it is at least twice as thick as the original and you need a new and bulky back cover and it no longer will fit in the car dock. I think I'm just going to get a standard OEM replacement battery.

But how will you charge the spare? I ordered a charge with 3 replacement batteries from ebay. I may get an OEM battery and use the charger.

Say you do get an extra battery, would it harm your phone to take the back cover off 2 times a day to swap battery? Also do you think the USA sellers on eBay are any better than the Chinese ones?? They go for $20 compared to $6 Chinese ones.

Unless you're getting a big extended with an extended battery door cover, don't expect a whole lot more battery life. Using a Seidio 1750 (which is reportedly only a 1500 mah by the way, some guy on androidforums tore the wrapper off and googled the serial number) I don't get that much more power than stock. Using an incredible.

Considering that the OEM battery in my phone is made in China, why shouldn't I at least see how they do? I mainly wanted the charger, I can get a stock battery. If the cover breaks, I'll get it replaced.
