I received the so called Z10 2680mAh High-Capacity battery last Wednesday from N4BB. I tried to condition the Z10 monitoring, as well as Battery Guru. The battery began acting odd after I allowed for the first full discharge. The details are not important, but using this battery could result in issues. And by the way, I lifted the battery wrapper and it says:

SW-483480 Ar
1800mAh
2013.05.07

Looks fradulent to me.

I don't know if this is a good place to post this information, but hope the word gets out.
Cheers,
Bill

Actually someone posted here a link to similar pictures of the "Gold" battery from the same manufacturer for a HTC HD2 several weeks ago and pointed out that the "Gold" batteries were always fake / refurbished crap or something.

Other people were pointing out here that even on the outer Gold cover itself it reads "2680 mAh" and "3.8 V / 5.25 Wh" at the same time. Which makes no sense. Because when you do the math "3.8 V / 5.25 Wh" translates to 1381 mAh.

I wonder what the 100mah difference between the OEM and Mugen brings to real use battery life? Could an extra 6% be that much more?

I would love an extended battery for my Z10. The one that it has is OK, but it really is a let down when I switch from by Q10.

The price is 44.50$, compAred to original battery which cost 8.5$. Doesnt make any sense
