Oh and Seidio does make good extended batteries.

Generally speaking Seidio offers pretty good quality "stuff" from my experience.

Let's see...for $49.95 I can get a 1700mAh battery from Seidio or I can get a 1860mAh battery from Verizon...that's a 40% increase in battery power with Verizon for the same price. I guess it depends on your preference...battery life or back cover. I am glad to see a creditable supplier is coming out with some more choices of accessories for the Pro.

40% increase? Isn't it less than 10%? 1860-1700=160; 160/1700=.09

Well, I guess it is how you want to figure it. The stock battery is 1460mAh...the Verizon is 1860mAh...a difference of 400mAh. The Seidio is 1700...a difference of 160mAh. 160 is 40% of 400. No matter how you figure it...your paying $49.95 for a battery that has either 1860mAh or 1700mAh.

Wait, that's not right. the Seido is 1700mAh, a difference of 240Mah, not 160mAh. Not that it makes too big a difference to this overall conversation, but does change the percentages slightly. The seido offers 16% (1460/240) more charge, whereas the verizon one offers 27% (1460/400) more charge, all relative to the regular battery.

i think im correct; im a lawyer, not a mathematician...

lol who cares about percentage

The extended battery from Verizon doesn't add that much more bulk to it.. I mean, I'm able to use my case for my phone just fine but eh.

Oooh....... good point! I didn't notice the mAh difference in the two. Hrrrmmmm.........

I wouldn't MIND getting the bigger battery with the different back cover, but then I just need to find a manufacturer who makes a comparable COVER that fits over the adjusted size. *sigh*

Hey Spidergirl...check this out...not sure if it what you're looking for but it works very nicely for me.

Thanks, JP. Does that case fit over VERIZON's extended life battery (the one that adds more bulk)? If it does, that looks like it would suit my needs just fine.

THANKS.

I have the Moro extended battery and don't really consider the change "bulky" but always open to new accessories ...

Anyone have any experience with Seidio batteries on Motorola devices? One buddy on the forum has had problems with a Seidio battery on his Droid X..says the battery doesn't "communicate" right with the phone so it doesn't give a correct batt reading...something to watch for if you go that way...

Hey Spydergirl...the sleeve does fit over the Verizon extended battery and the extended battery back cover...that is what I have. When you first slip the phone into the sleeve it will probably appear that it does not fit correctly. Let the phone sit in the sleeve for a couple of hours (preferably in a warm place). After a couple hours the sleeve will then "snap" around the phone. It is a nice tight fit...no slop. It really doesn't add much bulk to the phone and the holster is pretty thin so when the phone is in the holster it is not much more bulky than just the phone itself.

Anyone have this yet? Seidio only has one pic of it on their website and it's a rearview... how helpful!

Can someone post some actual pics of this on their DPro?

I'm just curious if the innocase can still be squeezed on with the extended battery. I've had the Innocase/Holster combo for my last 3 phones, and am missing it very badly with the DPro

Seidio told me today that the Innocase Surface will not fit the Moto extended battery. Too bad as I wanted to purchase this case. Seems like a bad move being that most users probably have the extended battery out of necessity.

The Verizon shell/holster combo wasn't supposed to fit with the extended battery. Neither was the Body Glove case but it also fit. I'd be willing to bet it'll fit even though they say it isn't made to fit that it will fit.

Well to be honest the Shell/Holster combo from VZW didn't fit with me. I had to preheat the shell in my oven for about 10 minutes on 200 then mold it to the extended battery cover but it works like a charm now. The only bad thing is I occasionally knock it out of the holster getting out of my car which is why I want the Innocase holster.
