Replacement battery advice

Post by jimexbox »

Hi

Has anyone bought a replacement battery for their 704? After being heavily used my battery is starting to drain faster and faster. Ive noticed there are high capacity ones on ebay clicky. TBH I just want one the same size as the original, as I dont want to buy a new case. A high capacity one would be nice though.

If anyone can point me in the right direction, it would be most appreciated.

I have had my 704WIFI /80gb for about 18 months and now get about 2hours per charge. Insured WIFI was disabled. Purchased the Double life battery and got over 6hours per charge.
Also purchased the battery pack that shipped with 4 AA(1700 mah) rechargeable batteries. Combined the Battery pack with the the old battery and got 4hours video playback. I have seen 25mah AA batteries that should give even longer playback.

All tests ran with brightness at mid-level (2) & volume between mid & 3/4.

Now I use the battery pack with the old battery most of the time. The Double life battery fits in my leather case but their's a bulge because is twice as thick.
