HTC Innovations G1 Google Battery Drea160

Flight delays, power outages, longer-than-expected trips. You can't always recharge your HTC device when you'd like to. But with an extra HTC battery on hand, you can always talk, type, and work as long as you need to. Keep it in your bag or briefcase and stay connected, powered up, and ready to get the job done. HTC batteries are designed to work optimally with your device, ensuring it is powered for longer and the battery sustains an optimal amount of charges. The HTC Battery features integrated security that ensures you're using a battery specially designed to work with your HTC device. Your device will be powered longer and the battery will sustain a greater amount of charges with a HTC battery, the only one that works with HTC devices.

Reviews

Not all HTC G1 Battery Suppliers are Equal

When a HTC G1 battery is reviewed all sellers seem to be listed together under one product link.
I bought from CCMACCESSORIES which has the ASIN:B0028MIQG8 (from my order detail). The reason I bought from this company was a guarantee (cost a couple dollars more than other sellers) I would get a factory OEM part. And that is what shipped; P/N 35H00106-02M

It took some time to match up price with "look-a-like" batteries. It was basically a shell game until the question, "Why is this seller a few dollars more than the others?". Short Hint: In replacement parts OEM does not have to mean the part shipped from the factory; it can be made by anyone and fulfill the same function. Now this is where the factory Part Number (P/N) is key - 3rd party has to use a different P/N.

There can be a lower quality battery (price lower too) that looks the same but is not the same. So, the premium price CCMACCESSORIES has is not that great but you get the real battery, not some unknown manufacturer. As with any battery things change and it is best to find a seller that is stating the part number.

This new battery on standby with all the unnecessary background tasks killed lasts 2 days. It took running a video stream (ustream app) 30 minutes to get a conditioning battery dead state. Number 2 of 3; after 3rd time the USB charger is ok to use. During the conditioning only use wall charger to charge 0 to full, phone off if possible.

Amazon needs to refine grouping all sellers into one review block under a similar description of product. It makes the good guys look bad when buying and it does not hurt the sellers of "look-a-like" at all. Plus it confused me and I wasted time weeding out suspects (they shipped factory and/or 3rd party made battery).

Bona Fide

As advertised, an actual HTC battery. Seems to work great, and at a very good price. You'll really need this extra battery with a G1 phone, for sure.
