Maybe you could design a "Man's Grip" which would overshell a phone like that one and also contain these extra batteries.


I like seeing the stuff.  It's kind of the same deal as how I run my computers without side panels on.  I like to see the stuff that makes technology interesting.  ;)

Five day update.  I'm still using the same batteries from the last picture, which was taken about 10 minutes after I installed these NiMHs.


Click to see the battery remaining and days ran.

Interesting note:  I seem to get better reception with this pack than the normal pack.  Dunno why, but I always seem to be at 4-5 bars now instead of randomly dipping to 2-3 all the time.

Yeah, if I wanted to I could go back.  Reinstalling my custom battery pack would take some time though (have to re-glue everything) if I wanted to go back to it after using the normal battery again.

I've used the phone more these last five days than normal.  I haven't exactly counted the minutes though.

Time for a day seven update.  The phone is still going, though I suspect the batteries will die some time Thursday or Friday.  Guess we'll have to wait and see.

I've been using the phone daily and it's lasted over seven days so far.  If I don't do anything, I suspect I'll get over two weeks out of it.  If I actually use this phone with the default battery, I get about a day and a half out of it...so you can see the percentage improvement.  If your phone gets a week if in standby the whole time with the standard pack, this custom one would give you about a month most likely.
