Ripped Off & Angry



I bought this battery 2weeks ago from a USA Company on the grounds that it had been linked to from another site I go on dealing with PDA type issues. I waited and waited and when it finally arrived I was really a happy chappy. Its supposed to be as it advertised: a longer lasting battery than the one that comes with the type of PDA Phone I have called a Hermes (Orange SPV M3100)
BUT...on tests and trying out its capacity over the space of a week, it has proven to be totally useless and unreliable. It is supposed to be a 1500mAh battery which is slightly more than the default battery that comes with this phones which is 1350mAh, and is advertised to be up to 40% better up time.

Heres a quote from the site:
