FYI, Anker doesn't make a battery for the HTC rezound. (BTR6425B)<BR>
Batteries Plus, Lenovo, etc all have replacements of lower capacity. (1500maH) <BR>
<BR>
Mugen Power makes a 1900maH battery (stock battery is 1620maH) which ain't cheap. ($40) But is sold through Amazon. <BR>
<BR>
I've just put it in and charged it and am running Nova battery test. It appears to be performing as advertized - over 1900maH.<BR>
<BR>
I don't mind spending the money for a quality battery. <BR>

Meh spent $7 for a clock battery for my beloved Lenovo R-51, went through the 8-step and 35-screw procedure to replace it, sewed everything back up and discovered that the battery was still dead. <BR>
<BR>
Fortunately, it's a CR2032 with a weird plug. I plan to cut the plug, solder some copper plates to the appropriate wires, then use conductive glue or conductive tape to stick them on a known-good battery. In my experience, soldering connections to a lithium cell is a Bad Idea.<BR>

I've actually had good luck with batteries from Amazon, doing the same as below. I got a new battery for my Droid for $9.98, and my wife got one for her basic circa 2008 phone for I think under $9. They were "Lenmar" aftermarket and sold by Amazon themselves, not someone else just selling through Amazon. I ended up upgrading to a newer phone 10 months later, but she has been using the aftermarket battery for over 1.5 years.<BR>

I found one on Amazon. I took some time reading the reviews to make sure it
</BLOCKQUOTE>

<BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE>

was not fake or the capacity was a lie. It cost $14 and my phone is now like it was when I bought it.

Batteries, battery packs, and things like that I am careful about getting on eBay because I know
</BLOCKQUOTE>
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
that most likely they will be fake. With Amazon I can read the reviews and send it right back.
