  • 1900mAh is not fantastic, but the price is good. Seems to be comparable to eBay prices, but I'd be tempted to look on eBay for one with more mAh or the same one from a seller with good feedback. Essentially, the higher the number, the greater capacity it has and the more charges you'll get out of it and at least if you buy from eBay you've got the benefits of using PayPal to get your money back if anything goes wrong.

  • Here's an example (clicky). Their feedback is 100%, but only 90 sales and the item comes from Hong Kong. The thing is, it does show that there are better ones out there and it just depends on how much you want to pay.

  • hel:hello:lo, is this page still alive and kicking? I want to recommend this cool rechargeable battery called the 'Japtron 2800 mAh'. Its cylinder shaped, no longer than 5 inches and could charge iphones or smart phones while you are out. It comes with the tips to charge your phone and it does'nt require any power adapters and its very convenient to have around. It even works on the ipad. Do a search on ebay in uk. I know how it feels when the iphone lets you down because of poor battery. So i like to share this info. :wave:
  • My external battery is kinkoo so i can't give you any advise on the one you show, but seem to be 1900 mAh is little small.
    kinkoo 8000 mAh capacity can charge my iPhone 4S more than 4 times with high speed, there is no problem found been using it so far, you can have a try.
    find it here:ikinkoo.com

    Cheap battery items from China is risky.

    Their actual capacity maybe much less than their quoted figures. I know some of the RC guys have tried some and when tested some were less than half the rated capacity.
