1800mAh isn't much different from 1500mAh
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Battery-Li-...HVYM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1294271114&sr=8-1
not sure what mAh it is but it says ultra high capacity on it.

mAh = milliAmp hours
IANAEE (electronic engineer) but basically it is a measure of how much energy can be stored within the battery. Think of the number as a measure of how long the battery would run for at a constant draining current of 1mA *or* how quickly you'd have to take power from the battery to drain it completely in one hour.
In other words, using the example above, an 1800mAh battery would last ~20% longer than a 1500mAh.
If your battery would normally last 10 hours, it would now last 12 hours.
As for the original question of info on it / whether this qualifies as 'ultra-high capacity' you'll need to ask someone more familiar with batteries than I am
So has anyone got any experience with the extended battery? Worth the punt?

Please write some info about that 1800mah batt..

I'm really interested!
1800mAh won't probably make that much of a difference for Optimus. Optimus has one of the largest batteries for a phone of its kind. 1500mAh itself is pretty high capacity.
I really don't think the extra 45$ is worth the extra 300mAh. You are better off buying an external portable charger. They run at around 20-30$. You could probably get an excellent one for 45$.
For example, this one here,
http://www.amazon.com/New-Trent-IMP...8PTS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1307017732&sr=8-1 has a 5000mAh battery.
Just get any portable USB charger.
What do you think about this battery: 2430MAH HIGH CAPACITY GOLD BATTERY FOR LG GT540 (look for it at ebay)
Is it even possible to have that much mAh?
Edit: Just look at the user rating, and this battery seems to be fake. The stock battery is better.
That must be fake. The highest capacity I have seen is 1800mAh but it's only 300mAh higher than the stock.

the battery is a misterius
I have seen this type of batteries that have a range of longer duration but there are many contradictions if it is good or not, is made in japan maybe that's a plus I'm wanting to buy a battery because the stock I have been short
Do we have any kernel mod or something for making charge quick than normal?

Thanks for immediate reply.. Am planning to search for higher rating charger ( I mean amp rating) will it make sense? Actually I discussed with xda mates earlier about this sometime ago but not in detailed. So am still in search for answer..

With higher amp, battery would wear out faster than normal.
Best way to charge faster is to never let battery drop down below 30% - 40%.
This would also extend battery life.
Higher ampere charger will force and stretch your battery. It will work but shorten battery lifetime. You don't mind buying spare battery, right?

This may or may not be related to op's question, but I've been wondering, does the "Enable USB Fastcharge" option available in some of the AOKP-based roms actually work?
The fastest way to make charging quick is to have a fully charged spare battery with you. Then the Note is charged in 20 seconds.

id be very interested in this too as my old htc had a 1.5A charger and a 1250mah battery, the note has a 2500mah battery and only a 1A charger
The note is most likely limited to a maximum charge rate of 800-900ma as the stock chargers only 1000ma
I have a 2100ma usb charger on the way, and with "battery monitor widget pro", it should give me some idea of the maximum charge rate.

Simply not a good idea.
The microUSB contacts are rated at 1A max, so any modification to the charge controller to allow charging currents greater than the contact ratings can result in a damaged connector and then your Note will become largely useless.
I understand everyone wants to play and muck about with their Note, but this falls into the category of "A real bad idea" so be warned.

According to batteryuniversity.com , lin-on/poly battery`s should be charged at between 0.5 and 1C , the Note has a 2.4amp battery , so you could charge it with a 2.4amp, though as i have already mentioned the note is most likely limited to between 800-900mah charge rate.
The good thing about having a powerful charger, is that it will barely get warm, and the components inside will give a much cleaner output, than a low power one, signs of a struggling power supply can be, getting very hot, flickering on the phone that`s being charged`s screen as the power/voltage is fluctuating, also a high pitched noise.

I asked as my best mate told me " 3.3-4.2 recommended for Z. Charge it once, using the pack. If it heats up, NEVER USE it again."
Anyways, this battery is pretty large... Maybe 3 XZ put together. Weighs in at around 420grams.
I don't think it's actually 20k mAh as I don't trust the Chinese, but if it's even 13k mAh (66%), it's not bad as I got it for 22$.

charges @ 1A so your fine
Got the same battery . The nice thing is you can also set it to 2A output. Modern electronics like our Xperia will automatically set the max input (1.5A most likely) so you benefit from the extra speed oppose to most 1A external batteries. It's like plugging into the Sony fast-charger. For an external battery speed is important imoh. Especially the XZ charges very fast when on low battery using the fast charger, which is very confenient.

Wait, you are mixing things up! Your Xperia Z1 Charger does supply 1500 mA (which means 1,5 Ampere) of current at 5,0V DC.
Your Xperia S Battery has a Capacity of 1650 mAh (or 1,65 Ampere Hours) which means that it can supply 1,65 Ampere of continuous current for 1 hour (at 5V, I guess)
So: Yes, you can use a bigger charger and it will charge your phone faster, in this case nearly twice as fast. This will not damage your phone, as it will (as already said) just take the maximum current it can make use of.

I thought it was the chipset/kernel which had fast charge capabilities, not the charger?
If the phone only takes the maximum current it will make use of, it doesn't matter what the charger is spitting out, the phone will only draw what it needs to.
I could be wrong, but my Nexus 4 charged at exactly the same speed when I used my Nexus 7 charger as it did with the stock charger.

You are perfectly right! And it's also what I wanted to say. Of course if your phone is not able to draw more than 750 mA, a bigger Charger is useless.
But one can safely try it out!

Battery life has nothing to to with the capacity of the portable battery? What are you talking about.
Every charging reduces the battery life. That's why it is recommended to only charge the phone when it is at 10-20% and try to charge it to full.

no it won't
it will just charge your phone slightly faster,
if there's more than 2000 input then the phone will put a limit on it. so it should be fine

I might be wrong though cause I didn't read properly.
But voltage does have some impact.

Well the phone is designed that way, i mean sony engineers should be smarter than us so i assume its a best option.

mAh is a capacity measure , the bigger the capacity the more times you can charge the phone on a single charge (and usually also the bigger and more expensive the battery)
It's the Amperes which are Voltage/ sec given to your phone that you should worry about. Pretty much all portable chargers are suited to mobile phones and should not cause any harm.
I thought you were talking about travel adapter charger..
Yes current provided and voltage matters.
Silly me I was confused between mah and Amperes..
Thanks man!
But I think he's refering to amperes. Cause the one provided with z1 is 1.5 amp. And the portable battery is 5 ah. So he bought a 2.1 ampere charger.

There seem to be quite alot of confusion here. I am sure you mean the output of the charger, but if you mean the capacity of a portable charger, then it doesn't matter if it is 1000mAh or 1000,000mAh. But if you mean the output of the charger, then we don't really have a clear answer as this was asked few times in the forum, but I will try to explain the conclusion we came to.
our phone is supposed to support quick charge 2.0 which means in theory, we can use chargers with ~4.0 A (if I remembered correctly). why sony used 1.5 A is not clear, but I don't think using 2.0 A would have any effect except slightly faster charging time. I have been using my SGS4 charger (with 2.0 A output) since I got my Z1 (since release date). Last time I looked for even more powerful chargers ~3 months ago, I found that chargers with 4.0 A output has not been released yet and will be released early 2014. When they are released, i will contact sony and see if I can use it with my Z1 as in theory this should mean half charging time. I hope this helps
it won't harm the battery
The higher mAh rating might not have a direct affect on your phone... But what you said that the battery charges faster is a cause of concern. Do check the output of the charger you got with the battery. If the current rating is higher than your stock charger then maybe you're phone circuits may have problems.

Maybe it won't affect at all since the charge current rate is set by the battery chip, not by the charger. What the charger label says is the max output current, not necessarily the actual rate.
