New x3i batteries??

chriscife · 05-03-04, 05:33 PM

I was searching on ebay for a new battery when i came across this http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...94861981&rd=1. I've never seen a 2000 maH battery so i went to their website pdaparts.com and found these http://www.gethightech.com/Merchant2...ory_Code=DELL. Looks like 2 new batteries to me..(well actually they look the same as the others)Maybe they're the after5pm ones?? I think they had the same capacity. Well anyways, tell me what you think.

try this.... http://www.gethightech.com/Merchant2...gory_Code=BATT

just a separate link for each battery

Hmmmm, "Designed to the same original electrical specs as the ones from HP." Does HP make a Dell battery, i havent seen one yet but i could be wrong.

btw, the 2nd link doesnt work for me, anyone else?

The picture shows a mugen power battery - I wonder if this is the new Mugen Power enhanced capacity batteries... certainly a 2000mAh battery for $49.99 is exceptionally good value, considering that's what Dell charges for their 950mAh battery....

sheepy · 05-03-04, 05:57 PM

In fact, the "standard capacity" one is also the Mugen Power 1100mAh battery, rather than the Dell 950mAh battery, for $39.99...

looks like these are the ones that should be available at after5pm.net :D

edit:

if you look closely at the picture it says "For Dell" on it - I think the "Same specs as HP" thing is a mistake.

Sweet, i think i am going to buy it :)

I will let you guys know if it works, heh.

Just what i've been waiting for :-)

He is offering them at a very good price. We've placed our order and are expecting them to arrive within 2 weeks. We'll be selling them also on eBay. But he's only offering the 2000mAh model so far. He isn't offering the 1100mAh yet. We'll be offering both.

See you in two weeks on eBay!

Get 20%-30% more life out of your unit.

Is that compared to the dell 1800mah battery?

Even I find that odd. If I take 1800mAh and add about 11% I get the 2000mAh and if I take the 950mAh and add about 16% I get 1100mAh. How they calculate 20-30% strikes me as odd.

It must be the NEW math.

Maybe you get even better performance even if it is only supposively 11% better then the 1800mah battery.

Anyways, i just finished buying one of them. I live in Cali so hopefully i will get it here by Friday :)

MEF, are you guys going to be offering them any cheaper?

05-04-04, 08:23 PM

Actually, pricing isn't confirmed yet. But I think less than what After5PM will be offering. I don't know if we'll be cheaper than the one above, there's not much profit in his sale price. But, we will accept all major forms of payment (Paypal, Money Order, etc.) and will ship worldwide.

The 1100mAh is there, it's just listed as a "standard" replacement battery for the X3i.
