I bought a cheapo £5 DHD battery of eBay acclaimed to be 1500mah. To be honest It's crap. It performs pretty same as the stock battery. 100% at 7.30am - 30% 5pm. That's just what I have noticed.

I'll report back too once the mugen ones arrives...
[Desire HD Accessories] Locster126:
hmm...I was too considering selling my DHD soon for a galaxy s2 but now that there seems to be an "official" battery with 1500mah..I'll wait for some review's and then I'll invest the £33
[Desire HD Accessories] unhallowedone:
I have read that quite often on the internet by now, sometimes those incredibly cheap batteries with more capacity behave even worse than the stock battery. So it seems the price isn't the only category to decide for or against one, what's a cheap battery useful for if you need to charge more :confused: It's so annoying to think the more expensive batteries are better after all ^^

Surely, it makes more sense to compare those batteries with log files from the battery behaviours. Many would appreciate two logs (stock and bigger one), what about somebody being so nice to post them?

Mine arrived this morning :)

It says to charge for 12 hours first so thats where I'm at right now. Going to discharge/charge a few times when it's ready so I'll report back initial results.
[Desire HD Accessories] eliashadow:
You bought the battery from up ^ post????We wait for your result!!!!!!!!!!!
[Desire HD Accessories] MrGarak:
Yeah from mobilefun.co.uk before they sold out. BobbyPhoenix gave his results some pages back and on their review page so I will compare my results with his.
[Desire HD Accessories] Spyr0s:
Type in terminal emulator

cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/batt_attr_text

what FULL(mAh) do you get?
[Desire HD Accessories] MrGarak:
1230, I believe it's already been explained that this is the maximum number the device is able to display.
[Desire HD Accessories] bobbyphoenix:
If you do that on the DHD you will see 1230 since it is hard coded. Any battery will show that on the DHD from the stock 1230 up to 1800. You need to test it on a standalone multimeter. I haven't gotten to my local shop yet, but I can tell you it lasts WAY longer than the stock battery.

Mugen 1500

Ok so got this from Mobile Fun and not going to get technical all I will say is with the same usage every day I usually am down to 15-20 % by 8.00 PM.....with this battery I am still at 50%....so I guess its pretty damn good.

Also for all you guys that want an extra brick for extra power get a solar charger thin and work always.
[Desire HD Accessories] reg83ny:
I bought the mytouch 4g extended battery. It fits. I email mugen about a 3500mah they say its coming soon. Try the mytouch extended battery
[Desire HD Accessories] reg83ny:
By the way its for thunderbolt.
[Desire HD Accessories] Locster126:
by the way your posting in the desire hd thread......:confused::rolleyes:
[Desire HD Accessories] Aamir.Badat:
your trying to say my touch 4g battery fits in the desire hd?
[Desire HD Accessories] MrGarak:
Still on my first discharge of Mugen 1500mAh, 57% after 16.5 hours. This includes running games, titanium and MIUI backup apps etc in that time. Keep in mind the packaging says it takes 5 cycles to reach it's peak, but I thought I would fill everyone in on how it's going so far.
[Desire HD Accessories] eliashadow:
Ok...thats good news...U can compare it with the stock one in your phone,in the same rom(i dont think u used sense or cm7 :p ) and the same daily use...?

But i think we must waiting u for the results 2-3 charges more...;)
[Desire HD Accessories] MrGarak:
MIUI battery life is about the same as CM7, I've used the other two in the past. So far is seems maybe 10-20% better than stock to me, hoping it gets a little better after some more charge cycles.
[Desire HD Accessories] fidorulz:
Well its 250mAh more then stock so 20% is just about right. Cant expect miracles here
[Desire HD Accessories] MrGarak:
Yeah so I would say a good way of summing it up is this should definitely get you through a working day but will struggle to get you through a full 24 hours with a moderate-heavy amount of use, thats my feeling right now.

On 17% battery after 23.5 hours, still first charge.
[Desire HD Accessories] Locster126:
Can u give some details like screen on time, brightness, call times etc...

Thanks
[Desire HD Accessories] zkyevolved:
Here is a scientific method: play a video on repeat with the OEM battery and time it. Then put in the Mugen battery and repeat the same video. See how long that will improve. :)

Every day for me is a little different, more browsing or more music, more pictures or more chatting, etc. So the only REAL scientific way is to create two scenarios and a video would kill the device in no time :)
[Desire HD Accessories] alexckma:
mmm, sounds good, I bought a battery from obostore for 10 bucks, and its not too bad it's like the stock battery, doesn't do any better, and doesn't do any worse

I want a better battery but the mugen one is just too expensive

I get an extra 10 hours min from the 1500 the same use as with the 1230. Direct comparison. Just get it and test yourself. Those who got one and give feedback say positive things. What more do you want? It works. Period. Stop asking for more comparisons. The thread is loaded with them.

What the ... ?

There is something a bit strange. There seems to be 2 different Mugen shops :

mugen-power-batteries.com - where you can buy 1500 mah battery

and mugenpowerbatteries.com where they only have a 1300 mah.

What does that mean ? Both of them use the same logo, and seems to be legit Mugen power sites. Yet they are differents sites with differents products.

I don't understand. Is the 1500 ma battery a real mugen ? Well, comments here seems to suggest it's a real 1500 mah anyway but ... it's just a bit disconcerting.

Anyone have any idea what those 2 sites are ?
[Desire HD Accessories] bobbyphoenix:
Mugen is the manufacturer, and they ship to various online retailers. Since this battery is still new some of the retailers will not have them yet. I have seen about four or five different online sites. Only about three of them have the 1500. As a matter of fact the place I bought mine from no longer has them listed right now, but probably will once they get more in. It's just a matter of supply and demand. Think of it like a car dealership. Manufacturers make a new model, and then ship it to various dealerships. Some dealerships get the new model in before others, but eventually they will all have them in stock. :D
[Desire HD Accessories] :
Just a small note, mugen 1500 is in stock at mobilefun!

If a company could fit 1000+ mah into an oem battery they would. I would never trust a company that boasts that much more mah into an oem sized battery. Ever. And gold? Really? No thx
[Desire HD Accessories] Rendering:
Thank you all for letting me know if this 1500mAh Mugen was ok or not.

I bought one Mugen (3100mAh) for the Acer Liquid and it worked well
[Desire HD Accessories] bert74:
Thanks for this thread!

Battery life was, I thought, the Achilles heel of the DHD and bought this mugen 1500 and I'm now very happy with the battery life. I've seen about a 20 percent improvement in battery life, which is good enough for me (so ending up with about a half full battery at night)...

I'm glad people on this thread confirmed that this battery works well...
[Desire HD Accessories] Antonios76:
Can you give the link of the battery (mugen) that you purchased ?. The exact one.
[Desire HD Accessories] Incoe:
Maybe i should give mugen a try?!?!
[Desire HD Accessories] MrGarak:
Yeah they are good. If anyone is interested in an update, still happy with mine and performance is just as good, if not a little better than my last post. A very dependable and unrivaled battery, so I suppose the price was justified.
[Desire HD Accessories] fidorulz:
Just got mine today will update on performance in about a week
[Desire HD Accessories] churro7:
Got one for my inspire so far its been about the same but I've only cycled it once

sent from planet snarf
[Desire HD Accessories] bert74:
It was the mugen 1500 on the mobilefun website that others have been discussing, that had just come back into stock...
[Desire HD Accessories] darren486:
just wanted to ask all the mugen battery user here, is the temperature reading from the battery accurate? coz i previously have a battery off ebay, the temperature reading is not working, it will just show 25c even when i can feel the heat when holding the phone... i ended up throwing the battery, coz it was just too dam hot... i afraid it might explode... hahaha
[Desire HD Accessories] fidorulz:
Install juice plotter it will monitor battery usage and temp. So far battery temp is ok for me but have not seen any improvement in battery life even after 5 cycles as instructed.

Will see after another week. Hope the improvement people are seeing isn't just coming from changing from a battery that was used allot to a "new" battery
[Desire HD Accessories] bobbyphoenix:
Temp is accurate as it was with the original. I'm judge that by using Mini Info. I'm getting the same temps with both. Right now it's at 80.6F. Very cool running.
[Desire HD Accessories] churro7:
same here

I wil most likely return it
[Desire HD Accessories] bobbyphoenix:
I can tell you my increase is not because I replaced a worn out battery. I was switching between two stock HTC batteries since I bought the phone last Nov, so between two of them they are still very fresh since both are just a couple months old. The Mugen is just that much better. At least for me.
[Desire HD Accessories] darren486:
thanks all for the info, most probably gonna get 1 next month

Query...

I have the Mugen 1500mAH batt.

However DHD still ID the batt as 1230mAH type.

I presume it is hardcoded as per original HTC batt?

Does this affect performance of how the phone charges the new 1500mAH batt?
[Desire HD Accessories] bobbyphoenix:
Yes it's hard coded, but it won't affect performance. It reads it as 1230, but still lasts much longer, and takes much longer to empty.

[Desire HD Accessories] sbdags:
I have one of these now in the Desire HD - it takes a few days for it to cycle and calibrate properly (first day was terrible) but now after a week I'm seeing a decent increase. I used to get home from work with under 50% of the battery left. I'm now seeing 65% with the same usage. I'm very happy with that for 12 hours.
[Desire HD Accessories] darkmessiah:
i jus got mine delivered today ..

will post the results after 4 or 5 discharges ..
[Desire HD Accessories] darren486:
how long was the delivery time for your battery?
[Desire HD Accessories] darkmessiah:
The delivery time was kinda long .. it took bout 25days from the day i made the payment . but i gez its worth it . the battery is last better than the original one .
[Desire HD Accessories] darren486:
thank for the info bro, just made my payment last friday, the estimation they gave was 10-15 days, looks like i have to wait abit longer... hahaha
[Desire HD Accessories] mjehan:
Got my battery last week. I am on the fourth charge cycle. With every cycle the battery life gets better. Now I can go easily 2 days without charging the phone.
[Desire HD Accessories] darren486:
2days? What is your usage? How long does it last on Ur stock batt?
[Desire HD Accessories] mjehan:
my usage is mainly internet browsing 3g/wifi (2 hours),SMS-ing (20/day), phone calls (30mins), other apps (1 hour), screen brightness (30% indoors, 60% outdoors).

With the stock battery at the end of the day I would be down to 30-35%. But with the Muggen Battery I am at 50-55%.

I am on Stock ROM.
[Desire HD Accessories] darren486:
oic... i'm only barely able to squeeze out 1day of usage from the phone, usually will last like 8-9 hours before it reaches 20-30%, hopefully this battery will get me thru a day w/o charging :)

No task killer

I am using the official 2.3.3 No root not anything.

When I installed the battery, i flashed again the 2.3.3 from my pc (I had in my mind that the battery had to be at 100%)
[Desire HD Accessories] clouds5:
I can confirm the 20% more juice with the Mugen 1500mah battery, i guess. Its very hard to tell because lately im trying alot of emulators with my iControlPad so if i got the time once i'll do video playback test or something :)

But as I said I use the phone with screen on alot and when im gaming i get about 4-5h of screen on time on one cycle. With only video playback i see 8-10h because when i watch one 45min episode battery drops about ~8%.

I usually have 2g and wifi on. No autosync.

Overall i think the battery lasts longer. Even if I game alot i never have to charge after one day, and that tells alot i think :) If I just let it on standby and only use it for calls/sms i have the feeling i could go a week :D 20% isnt much, but its something!
[Desire HD Accessories] LorD ClockaN:
I had a Mugen on my old Dell Streak and now I just ordered one for DHD.. let's see
[Desire HD Accessories] clouds5:
did some stress testing and i really like the results :) As you can see i played about 1 1/2 hour nova2 one of the best looking 3d games. The other one in the list is a tegra2 game playable with chainfire i played about 3/4 hour i guess.

I also watched some youtube and surfed the web, made some gps tests. I love my DHD like this :)

This is with the 1500mah battery from mugen, rom&stuff @sig. 2g was on all the time, brightness set to auto during day. Low value at night. Wifi was on 7hours.
[Desire HD Accessories] darren486:
Just got my battery 2day, will post the result in a few days
[Desire HD Accessories] captainzaak:
Hummmmm, now i'm tempted to order one of these :D
[Desire HD Accessories] reaper90:
I got this battery for 2 weeks now and i also get more juice out of it than with stock battery.

I knot it's maybe a bit offtopic, but tell me how du u get that much juice out of that battery?

i'm now @45% after 11h with 1h 30m of display usage. Wifi and Data connection is always on, screen brightness set to automatically and i have facebook (not the one for HTC Sense), Google, HTC Sense, Email and Weather on sync, but all this just like 2 times a day.

I did 6 full cycles in the beginning and as i said the battery lasts longer than stock, but i never had that much lifetime with a battery. I'm on Android Revolution HD 5.1.9 ROM which gave me longer battery life with stock battery.I updated some days ago and wiped battery stats at full charge, so maybe i have to charge and discharge one more time, but i dont believe that i get that much out of the phone (no matter what battery i use). So how is this possible?

Nevertheless this is a great battery, I recommend it to everyone with a DHD ;)
[Desire HD Accessories] darren486:
maybe the stock battery is lower than 1230Mah? or the battery cell is of lower grade? not sure, but quite interested in knowing the answer as well :p
[Desire HD Accessories] reaper90:
just read cloud5's post again, did not see that he does not use autosync, but is this the cause of so much more battery drain?
[Desire HD Accessories] ViDtje:
Is the mugen battery exactly the same size as the standard battery?
[Desire HD Accessories] preacher65:
Yes, at least it fits without any case modifications. Just bought one after the reports in this thread. :)
[Desire HD Accessories] ViDtje:
I saw that on the site the reviews for the 1500 mAh battery and the 1300 mAh are both with the 1500 mAh reviews. Also the 1300 mAh battery isn't sold anymore. Looks to me they just turned the 3 into a 5.
[Desire HD Accessories] bobbyphoenix:
Yep. Makes sense really. They came out with the 1300 first because they couldn't get the specs right on the 1500, but once they figured it out, they stopped selling the 1300. I don't think they would sell a lot of 1300s. Why would someone buy it when you could now get 1500? Anyway I'm glad they figured out how to squeeze 1500 into the same size. The 1230 sucked, and even the 1300 only gave me a little bit more, but I love the 1500. I don't have to worry about finding a charger everywhere I go.

Sent via 1s and 0s through time and space using my Defy.
[Desire HD Accessories] ViDtje:
Indeed it makes sense, I'm only hoping that it actually is a 1500 mAh when I order it :)

Has anyone tested if it is really 1500 mAh?
[Desire HD Accessories] Beamen1:
It seems promising. Can anyone do a real stock vs mugen test?

Recharge the batteries and do the same test (video playback with 100% brightness and airplane mode) with both batteries. It would be cool to see the real difference and this test will show just that.
[Desire HD Accessories] ViDtje:
That or the test with the multimeter (or something like that) that someone mentioned.
[Desire HD Accessories] clouds5:
Hm I did the battery calibration like this:

-Charge to 100% (green light)

-Wait till current widget tells 0mAh

-Wipe batterystats.bin with any root explorer

-restart (but not sure if thats needed)

-Let it discharge until it shuts off

-Charge until green light while its shut off.

Other than that, i use the lower autobrightness fix from slopppy, i think thats another great battery saver if you use autobrightness, because the stock values are way to high imho (in complete darkness its set to 30% or something...)

Maybe stuff like facebook and twitter sync are another battery drain. I dont use social networking so i have no idea what it does to the battery. You could measure the standy drain with Current widget though. When you see many spikes (like 50-100mah) there is something that makes the phone active while its off.

But the usage of a smartphone is very different. When i mean high usage then i mean alot of gaming (emulators and stuff with bluetooth gamepad!) and watching video, surf the web and stuff. For others it means making alot of phonecalls and syncing Facebook all 15min...

So you can never really compare i guess.

[e] thought about doing the video test, but i dont want my phone lying around for 10h i need to use it!!! :D Maybe i'll do something like that when ARHD 5.1.10 gets released.

Hello and thanks for the great input so far to all of you willing to spend money on a non confirmed extended battery. I was curious wether in your comparison you test the new mugen with an old stock battery or a new one. My stock battery is only 6 months old and I think I already lost some juice ( not much, but it is noticeable ). Keep on the audacious testing :)
