Mugen has an extended battery that works. From other members say it only gives you about a 20% increase. There was another thread in this forum if you search for it.

Only two quality batteries out there. Mugen HLI-1500 (1500mah) and Momax X PDA (1400mah) both are decoded and around £25.00.

Both last around 20% more than Standard 1230mah

Just wanted to give you another option is buying external battery charger.
I have a extra blackberry battery and hate switching it because it takes so long to reboot.

what does "decoded" mean? is there an encoded battery?

Latest Momax and a Mugen batteries are OEM factory decoded, and will work with Blackberry security at startup. Cheaper batteries use a decoder to copy the code from the original battery to the new Battery, some brands hold the code and others lose the code after a battery pull which is a pain

If you are serious about a quality battery, get the Mugen branded one direct from Mugen HLI-1500, it wont let you down!
