question about standalone chargers for Bold 9900
Morning all,
I've previously posted on here about the shocking battery life of my Bold 9000, and I know that many of you share my pain. - 422. (+ /2( f hours if on 2G mode and around 4 hours if on 3G, in both cases my use is only browsing and .xls .pdf documents, nothing power-hungry like GPS (which I only now use when plugged in to an in-car charger.
On speaking to my carrier (T-Mobile/EE, UK) they have offered to send me, FOC, a replacement battery to see if that assists my problem, and I've been told to recycle or keep the original.
Anyway, I now have two JM1 batteries. I would like a way to charge them without waking up at 2am to change the batteries over.
I see a standalone charger listed on this website at BlackBerry J-Series Extra Battery Charger Bundle for Bold 9930, Bold 9900, Bold 9790, Curve 9380, Torch 9850, Torch 9860 | BlackBerry Battery
Does this product allow a battery to be charged without a phone being anywhere near? This is not fully clear to me.
Secondly is it possible to purchase just the standalone charger without battery/wires?
With two fully charged batteries, things like family days out appear possible once more :)
Final question - does a torch typically give same or better/worse standby time?
