Get a extra battery or get a mobile charger?

[rollbread]

My droid drains up battery quite fast. So will it be better to buy a extra battery or buy a mobile charger? For extra battery, I had seen some selling online but not sure is it safe to use them. Which option do u think is better? :unsure:

eBay has some good deals... I got this one from this seller in Hong Kong and the battery I got was a genuine Motorola one...

I got that deal a couple moths ago and that battery is junk unless I just got a bad one. It drains power so fast but it's better than nothing.

I have an extra battery and two charging decks for my droid. Absolutely, get extra batteries and chargers.

I vote both. You can never have too many batteries!

Sadly I couldn't even get the charger door off...

Do I push down? I didnt want to push too hard, didnt want to break anything on my prized Droid

It slides downwards. It's one of the easier ones I've found to get off.

Haha wow that's kinda sad for me.

Is there a way to charge a battery by itself? If I need to replace my droid battery, I can take an already charged battery and just put it in, is there like cradles to charge batteries?

Let me throw the idea of a Seidio 2800 Mah Extended Battery in the mix, I have one and it was the best purchase I made for my Droid

How about this one?

You may need to push in slightly while pushing down. Occasionally if my door sticks a bit, that takes care of it.

Yes, you can purchase a seperate battery charger. My favorite is one that charges a spare battery while charging my Droid.

The jury is still out on my extended battery. I think I prefer carrying a spare with me. I hate not getting anywhere near an accurate reading, and the bulkiness of the EB. I do use it, though, when I know I am not going to be around a charger for a while.

Bought a couple of these on Amazon; one for my droid and one for my wife's. Both perform flawlessly.

Amazon.com: Motorola DROID 1300mah Standard Battery: Cell Phones & Service


Also purchased this standalone charger and it works like a charm.

Amazon.com: NEW OEM Motorola Droid Cliq Battery Charger SPN5564: Cell Phones &…

P.S. Prices are comparable to Ebay and I prefer to deal with Amazon.

I bought an extra battery and a single battery charger from Verizon, which not only has the wall plug, but connects via USB so you can charge it with a mobile charger. I leave mine in my work van on the mobile charger during the week.

Stick to OEM batteries from reputable resellers.
