[HTC Sensation] usual_suspect:
Thats terrible. I hardly used mine today due to being too busy and after 16 hours of very light usage (including only 30 minutes on screen on time, thats a few texts and a little web browsing) I still have 94% battery left (see attached pic below).

What were you getting out of the stock HTC battery? You need to compare that before blaming the battery and not the phone. Remember you should only expect roughly 20% extra out of the Anker battery, and anyone who claims to get twice as much battery life out of the Anker compared to the stock battery must of had a dud stock battery!
[HTC Sensation] Krayol:
I've not tried that specific one, but I did buy another ("Gold" 2300). It weighed half that of the stock and lasted much less.

Frankly, I'd be surprised if you could really fit 2300 in a battery that size, but I'll be very interested if it is! :)
[HTC Sensation] nageshmodhvadia@gmail.com:
My Anker lasts same time as the stock battery. I did buy off eBay for £11. Maybe I'll buy again but from Amazon. Maybe I can get same results are you guys.

Then again, are you guys using custom ROMs? I'm using stock.
[HTC Sensation] KAwAtA:
I'm about 99% sure that's a load of BS, however I'm surprised how Anker is doing so far.
[HTC Sensation] usual_suspect:
Is the length of charge time connected with capacity?

My stock battery takes around 2 hrs 22minutes from empty to the green light on handset. Anker battery takes 2 hrs 37 minutes from empty to green light. This would suggest just over 10% extra capacity only.
[HTC Sensation] bandersnatch:
The back cover fits fine.
[HTC Sensation] hurrpancakes:
Does anyone have any experience with this? $11 for 3 high capacity batteries and a charger sounds too good to be true (which means it probably is).
[HTC Sensation] nitrogen618:
Watch it be like 600mAh each.
[HTC Sensation] hurrpancakes:
That's what I'm worried about! :P

EDIT: Well, I went ahead with the buy, I guess I'll report back. Might not be for a week or 2 though. lol

[HTC Sensation] carlsontheflyer:
Just checked eBay a minute ago. The price is still $59.96 and only 2 available. Hope they get more of these soon.
[HTC Sensation] :
This is one super battery... had trouble draining it just to cycle it.... usually run Juicedefender on my phone, gets to 50% by 12 hours... now WITHOUT juicedefender, im still at like 80% by 12 hours.
[HTC Sensation] west2cool:
The price on Amazon UK has gone up to £9.99, I paid £4.99 yesterday
[HTC Sensation] jasonm253:
I ordered the one with 3 batteries that are supposed to be 1800 mah a piece. If anyone receives them before me, please let me know how they run. Hope it isn't too good to be true.

Also if I order from the UK site will they deliver to the US?
[HTC Sensation] jawang26:
I ordered 3 batteries 1600 mah for 17.00, seller is located in US, didnt want to wait 2 - 3 weeks but i'll keep you posted , i'll be happy if i get oem performance, dont mind leaving a spare in my car and backpack. Hopefully some more extended battery reviews come out wouldnt mind buying the 1800 one if they actually work
[HTC Sensation] misterjimmy:
Nope none needed it. Just replaced and put on the back cover
[HTC Sensation] SplitCold:
Sucks you cant order from amazon.uk to USA... Anyone know if the 1800mAh batteries are any good since this 1900 seems impossible to get.
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Just ordered for 11.24 including delivery. Still a bit sceptical about it, but just thought I'll get it in case price goes up stupidly high. Does anyone how to check capacity?
[HTC Sensation] Niekjuh:
I think that is the problem...

Still nothing strange untill I removed it.
[HTC Sensation] liroyvh:
I got this battery a few days ago and it seems to be peforming great.

It doesnt give uber much more time, but then I do a lot with my phone and it has to do a lot in the background, so under circumstances: it's outperforming the standard battery for sure. I can make it home now after being busy, normally i'd be out of battery way before I make it back.

Really a great battery and certainly worth it.

I am in Europe (NL) and bought it from "wolf9honor" on eBay. Good price, fast service. :)

---------- Post added at 10:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:20 PM ----------

On a short sidenote: the battery does seem to weigh a bit more.

And... It remains warm. The battery itself is warm and doesnt seem to cool down. Not extremely hot or anything but deffinetely warmer than stock battery: the entire case get's warm :P

Not something to worry about at this point though I think.

Sensors tell me it is not exceeding 30C when idle.
[HTC Sensation] foggydew88:
Got an Anker 3 weeks ago and absolutely happy with it, we will see how long 'twill be strong then now, but at this time it has great performance.

Slán!
[HTC Sensation] tengken:
I've been using an Anker for a week now and it's been really good. Previously the standard battery could not last the day, it'll be dead by dinner time. The Anker battery still has about 10-20% by the time I head for bed...
[HTC Sensation] xstormli:
can't find any near 2000 mha batteries...

$10? it gotta be made in China lolz

who knows...craving for one of these
[HTC Sensation] ITcrazi:
As simple as that !

Here is my experience with anker 1900mah

I started using it last night ; the batt had about 60% without any charging. I left the wifi open the whole night with chatting and web surfing.

In the next morning, it left about 40% with wifi open. Talked wit my gf for 30min, frequent massaging.

12:00 pm, started charging to full as it had only about 20%.

2:00 pm, 99% power

... music about 1hr

... call about 45min

... game play about 1:30 hr

... wi-fi is on for 5 hours at work wit a bit of web surfing

... mobile network is on all the time when wifi is not available.

now it is 12:45am, battery left with 43% with wifi connected to home router, screen brightness about 60% without any charging in btw.

This is my first cycle of charging and i would say it is pretty good !

Conclusion: if u have HTC sensation, u should get one. I realli like my ph now as the stock battery came with faulty; it keeps shut down at least 2 - 4 times a day, sometime in the middle of calls. U know what when it reopened, the battery sign showed exclamation mark (!) and went from 99% to 20%, died awhile later ..

P.S - IT IS NOT AN ADS or I M NOT THE RELATIVES OF ANKER. Just sharing of ideas :) .. thz
[HTC Sensation] CB620:
I have a anker sold my oem because it outperformed it...just received my chichi in the mail and I put my anker up. I want to see which one is better. I have been hearing mixed reviews.

Anker is def a go to battery for heavy users. You just have to catch it on the right day on eBay. Some days it is $7.99/$9.99 and than some days it is $59.99/$99.99

I don't know why lol

But I heard both are better than the OEM.
[HTC Sensation] soggyflakes:
Ok, I just got my battery today and have a few questions. Do I just jam it in there fresh out of the box without charging it? and also, Im on stock rom and have been reading that The battery stats need to be reset, so is there a way to do that without being rooted?
[HTC Sensation] CB620:
I put mine in and drained it and fully charged it than drained about 3 times repeated when I was on stock.

Now that I'm rooted I drain fully charge and use battery calibration app.
[HTC Sensation] silentsnow31802:
Anker and Chichitech are exactly the same battery just with different labels. The reason for the price change on ebay is when they go low on stock they jack it up.
[HTC Sensation] CB620:
I have to disagree u feel a significant weight diff when holding a chichi and a anker...
[HTC Sensation] miniterror:
Wich one is heavier then?

I think the heaviest will give the best batt life
[HTC Sensation] CB620:
The chichi is heavier..I noticed that as soon as I took it out of packaging
[HTC Sensation] miniterror:
You gonna give a iverview wich one you think is better?

Got a anker atm but if the chici is better il buy one of those to use:p
[HTC Sensation] CB620:
I'm still running off my first cycle just got the battery maybe around 11am... I'll report back between the two.
[HTC Sensation] jeffokada81:
For $16 bucks, it worth a try, Ill leave feed back on here as soon as I receive it and go through a couple charge cycles.
[HTC Sensation] The Illest 619:
My Anker, and Evo3d battery just arrived :)

saw the tests showing the anker actually having around 1700mah which is the same as the evo except the evo battery gives accurate reports. Ill cycle and test both to see the results
[HTC Sensation] puma_:
I got my anker 1900 mah last week on amazon. just finished my 4th charge cycle. Battery is and has been amazing i'm easily getting 22-28 hours with moderate usage during work. at the end of my 3rd charge cycle i had the hardest time trying to actually drain the battery, had wi-fi on streaming a movie med brightness and still took almost 3 hrs to drain the last 33% of my battery. I charge my phone normally when i get home from work if it is less than 60%. But with the new battery i could easily charge my phone on a sunday night and not really have to charge again until tuesday night. I can really enjoy my phone now, the stock battery would normally get me 8-12 hours. Also i honestly dont feel a weight difference , it feels the same as the stock battery.
[HTC Sensation] steve austin:
more than satisfied

I have the Chichitech battery. Wheter it is 1700 or 1900 (as advertised) it blows the flimsily - put - together doors off the original battery. This weekend I got 32 hours out of the phone - yes - 32. I was amazed. To be fair, the screen time was only 2 hours, BUT I text, talked, listened to 2 hours of podcasts, used the market, youtube'd sporadically during the day. Standby was great and it did not immediately deplete once I did need to use it. Juice was there when I needed it to be. I am very satisfied with my purchase.
[HTC Sensation] silentsnow31802:
I actually never checked the weight when I had both of them. Thats something i really should have done. Do you have a way to weigh them? You would probably have to take the labels off to get a valid reading though. I visually inspected them and they look EXACTLY the same. I was 100% convinced they were the same cell.
[HTC Sensation] CB620:
No I don't have a scale. And I'm not taking the labels off as I'm getting rid of my device in the upcoming week.

Someone already weighed and it shows the chichi weighs more
[HTC Sensation] shawndh:
Mine takes forever to charge!

What! I was just about to post about charging time when I found your post. My Anker takes about as much time to charge to full as it lasts all day. If I put my phone on the charger about 10pm when below 5% or empty, it won't go green until about 10am the next day. The stock battery seems to charge faster though. It may take 4 or 5hrs. The stock battery only lasts about 8hrs with moderate use. The Anker varies, but always lasts longer than stock - about 12hrs avg but I've gotten as much as 17hrs on a couple of occassions. I can't figure out what the discrepancy is about.

I currently have one push exchange account, 4G on, GPS on, Wifi half the time, and BT maybe 3hrs per day. I'd say I'm a moderate to heavy user. I think I'm doing my 4th full charge from empty right now so I'll see how it goes.

Also, I've been switching back and forth with my stock battery so that may be messing up the stats. I need my phone to be on for work so I've been charging one with the crappy little wall charger that comes with the Anker so I'll have a full spare when the one in the phone dies.

Anyway, I just think it takes an unusually long time to charge this thing. I've had it about two weeks and I still haven't done 4 complete drain and recharge cycles to full.

[HTC Sensation] rprice17:
just curious about the consensus on this battery? My personal experience has been a bit mixed, but I suspect that's largely the result of flashing multiple ROMS and perhaps not calibrating.

Any thoughts are welcome. Curious what others experience has been? :cool:
[HTC Sensation] peterc10:
Which battery? If it is the Anker just read the 100+ pages of posts, most of which is very positive - I would call that a consensus. I have two of them and agree that they are good.

I've been using this battery for the last week and my phones been up for 16 hours with 25% battery left today. I was only getting 12 hours out of the stock battery. It's well worth the $16 I payed for it on Amazon.
[HTC Sensation] Sdobron:
What kind of battery life are people seeing on CM7?

I'm running Faux Kernel version 19 and been seeing about 16 hours with roughly 3.5 hours screen on time.

Had the battery over a month now and believe capacity has dropped somewhat.
[HTC Sensation] :
Hi,

Hard to read over 100 pages of this topic,I would have 2 questions (sorry if already asked):

-Is the temperature of the battery is properly reported?

-Anker reputation compared to Mugen (reliability/quality/reality of the amperage)?

Thanks in advance:rolleyes:
[HTC Sensation] peterc10:
The temperature is not reported correctly. But, AFAIK, that is the same for all none OEM batteries. And, empirically, the battery seems to run cooler than the OEM one.

The quality seems good and my phone is consistently reporting capacity ("amperage") considerably in excess of that stated. I accept that the app I use is not very accurate, but it is consistently reporting 2,799 Mah! Even allowing for some inaccuracy in the app that is well above the 1900mAh quoted.

As for reliability, well only time will tell. Anker appears to be the trade name held by a small Californian company called Laptopmate. I am not sure how long they have been about. Maybe others can give you more info on that.
[HTC Sensation] :
Thanks for the answer.

Annoying for the temperature,although this is not the most important but it can serve...

On HTC Desire HD and Mugen battery the temperature work correctly.

Ok for the capacity ("amperage" wasn't the good word,and Google translation is sometimes strange:D,my English isn't very good),that's good,saw the majority of positive opinion I may buy it.

I didn't know Anker before, just Mugen and i've had good result with it and they have good reputation,so hard to choose...

Mugen's battery is 1800 mAh...,Anker's 1900 mAh...buy or not difficult to say and no much feedback for the Mugen's battery,much more for the Anker...

I'll try to read the entire thread:eek:
[HTC Sensation] astd:
So for conclusion should I get it or not?
[HTC Sensation] peterc10:
It's better than my French ;)
[HTC Sensation] stuart0001:
Yes. It's cheap and lasts longer than the stock battery
[HTC Sensation] Gunkk:
No

Anker rep is good on all points. Mugen not so much.

---------- Post added at 07:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:30 AM ----------

Get Battery Monitor Widget and use the fix for Sensation mA reporting in settings.
[HTC Sensation] peterc10:
That is what I use and do, but the answer is still not very accurate - it reports different figures for the same battery. All of those figures are much higher than the 1900mAh rating though, ranging from 2270 to over 3000.
[HTC Sensation] :
Ok,so for the temperature it's confirmed.

I didn't know about that,Mugen is less reputable than Anker but I didn't know Anker before reading this topic,only Mugen.

Perhaps that's why there are no much threads about Mugen battery for the Sensation with more feedback:confused:

I think I'll still think a little,but with all the good feedback in general i'll buy it...but i'm a little undecided :D,because i had a good experience whith my Mugen battery for my Desire HD...

Well...I would feedback if I buy it.
[HTC Sensation] Krayol:
Just to add to everyone else's comments....fake, fake, fake! I bought one the same week as the phone.

It weighs less than the stock and I'd suggest capacity is around 1200mAh.

Not worthless, but nothing like the claimed capacity (and still has the same issue that most pattern batteries have: no working temperature sensor - always 25C).
[HTC Sensation] KAwAtA:
Just out of curiousity.. does anyone change their batteries between anker and stock? I do and what I've done so far is

- Fully recharge with anker in (once 100% battery wipe)

Unfortunately, I prefer to switch batteries rather than recharge. I wonder how you guys do it? Do you guys just switch it or switch / wipe batt stats? For some WEIRD reason (only happened twice so far so not 100% sure) when I swap batteries and put the stock battery back in, my phone is like in sleep lock. I can't wake it up and if I keep trying .. the phone reboots. So something is weird here.. I almost NEVER get freezes until I started swapping batteries. Do you guys just swap as normal or swap + wipe? Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] thegregulator:
I'm on my 4th charge with the anker after fully charging and discharging. Coming up on 14 hours with fairly light usage (almost 2 hours screen time but minimal calls and texts) and I have 50% left. Markedly better than the stock sensation battery, at least for me. Also WiFi on the whole time.
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
Just ordered from Ebay the Anker 1900mAh Battery + Rapid USB Dock Charger for $18 w/free ship!
[HTC Sensation] cmarti:
Good deal, I paid for mine $19.99 on Amazon, you will not be disappointed with the Anker battery. :)
[HTC Sensation] soggyflakes:
ok so I've already put my battery in and I'm on the 4th cycle, I've notice greater life since first putting in. Stock battery gave me about 12 hrs MAX! no matter usage. With anker I've gotten 18-19 on average. My question is that I've been seeing results of 1day + from some users so I i want to know if the only way to achieve that is to be rooted? I'm still on stock rom and havent done the battery bin wipe.

I dont use my phone like crazy out of fear of it dying. occasionally stream music or play games, about 1-2 hours a day of both.

I keep wifi on when at home and auto brightness is on. and about maybe a total of an hour of text and calls the entire day.

so again my question is, is the only way to get day+ out of this battery to be rooted? I want to be able to use my phone without seeing the % drop from answering a call or responding to a text.
[HTC Sensation] CB620:
My observation between Anker and Chichi as promised:

***Observed after calibrating batteries 3x's using Battery Calibration***

***Android Revolution has auto-calibration after full charge and reboot***

Settings:

WCDMA only

Screen Timeout: 30 seconds

Background Sync: on

Brightness: Auto

Weather sync: 4hrs

XDA: 4hrs

Parcels App: 1hr

With my anker based on nonstop or heavy use I get around 6-7 hours. Now that's constant texting, calls, internet browsing/downloads, no email syncs and music.

With my chichi on heavy use I get around 9hrs and some minutes. That's pretty much the same setup as the anker with the usage.

Both get around a day and a half or a little more with moderate to light use which to me is pretty much not using the device. That's why I based everything on use.

Been switching through roms a lot lately because they have been coming in fast, but I have been running Android Revolution not the 3.5 but the Beats XE. The rom holds up well when I flash the the stock kernel instead of the overclocked which I think is 1.5/1.8.

I had my OEM first of course but sold it when I got my anker...the anker holds up really well and is wayyyy more dependable than what HTC ships the device with. I got a deal on a Chichi so I took the plunge because they normally run $35 which stirred me away...

Pretty much after running both for a period of time I will be running my chichi primarily and using the anker as a backup.

Both batteries are awesome but the chichi has that push to get u a extra 2 hours of use.

If your looking for a battery under $10 with extended life get the anker.

If you don't mind paying $20 extra bucks for 2extra hrs get a chichi.

The chichi weighs more but as the anker you don't need a extended battery cover case.

I reccomend both honestly it just depends on what u wanna pay....what I don't recommend is the OEM lol.

Hope this helps some of u. :-)

[HTC Sensation] Vineares:
Yes. You really start to see amazing battery life jumps when :

1. Dropping Sense

I really did like Sense but CM7 is giving me much MUCH better battery life without all the Sense eye candies going on.

2. UC-ing and UV-ing

Underclocking and Undervolting is going to save you the most as it straight up just uses less battery. Once you find the sweet spot for your particular phone you'll be battery paradise.

The idle life on my Sensation is amazing. I got a day and a half with some music streaming and a little gaming for maybe 10 hours of that time. I can leave my phone on and NOT charging over night and not have to worry about it dying in the middle of the night. Hope this was helpful :)
[HTC Sensation] soggyflakes:
Very much so, thanks. Guess I'll be rooting soon, and you're using cm7?? I have read good things about other roms but I've always like cyanogen, what's your take on it and why did you choose it over other roms?
