Mass battery HLI-C3000 for Zaurus SL-C3000

Mass exchange battery for PDA. The commodity here corresponds to Zaurus SL-C3100/C3000/C1000/C860/C760/B500.
Capacity is from a battery of the main body standard attachment (1,800mAh or 1,700mAh) to mass 2,000mAh. Moreover, the price is cheap from pure goods.

It is an item that I would like the heavy user with an early power supply consumption to use it by all means.

Corresponding model: Zaurus C3100/C3000/C1000/C860/C760/B500

- The main specification

Capacity: 2,000mAh
Voltage: 3.7V


Just in time, my battery is almost 2 years old and it shows.

Apparently, it's not an OEM Sharp battery (made from quality japanese li-ion cells), but rather some aftermarket one. I would be sceptical about its advertized capacity.

Or a slightly more readable version:

Extended battery for PDAs. This product is compatible with SL-C3100/C3000/C1000/C860/C760/B500 models. This is a 2,000mAh battery -- higher capacity than the batteries included with the Zaurus units (which are 1,800mAh or 1,700mAh). In addition, it's cheaper than the official battery!

A perfect item for heavy users who need a lot of power.
Compatible models: Zaurus C3100/C3000/C1000/C860/C760/B500

Specifications:
Capacity: 2,000mAh
Voltage: 3.7V

Hi all,

the manufacturer already contacted us and we're actually
checking how professional these guys are.

If it looks promising, we'll test a few of these batteries and
keep you all updated.

Marc,
I'll hold off on trying to purchase from Japan and wait to hear how your evaluation of the company and the battery go.  I'll be one of the first to purchase through you if they check out OK.  Using a diminishing battery with wifi is yielding me only about 45 minutes.

I'd be really interested if they could offer a higher capacity battary in the smaller BL-06 size.

If this battry is manufactured by Mugen, I'm highly interested in it. I used to have a Toshiba E800 with battery made by Mugen and I'm quite satisfied with its quality.

Greetings!

We just wanted to add a little information here for your reference. We are the online reseller for Mugen Power (Unifirm) and we are pleased to let you know that we are expecting to have this battery in stock by Friday. It is a higher capacity battery than the OEM battery and for those who know Mugen Power and us, you know that we provide quality products and services.

If we can answer anyone's questions about the new battery, please let us know. We have now joined the OE Forums to answer any and all battery related questions and to support the community.

In the meantime, we are looking for 2 people to test and review the new battery. Please email me (mefabian@spamcop.net) your references and we'll get you to try it out. Of course, the idea is to let us and everyone else know your opinion.

Thanks for your help and we're looking forward to being part of the community.

Actually, we still stock the battery and it is a 5800mAh version. It is a big brick but useful for those who need it.

We (Lion Battery) have them being tested now and should have an answer very soon. They fit the following PDA's: SL-C3000, SL-C1000, SL-C3100, SL-C750 & SL-C760. They also are suppose to fit the CL5600 but we have not been able to test this yet. These batteries are compatible with Sharp's EA-BL08 and EA-BL11 batteries.

Hope that this helps to answer your questions.

we also got our sample shipment today.
Any results on your side ?
Think it will take a few days until we have some comparable
data for the new batteries.
What's your measured uptime compared to the EA-BL11 ?
What models are you testing ?
Because we actual run tests with SL-C1000/3100, we could
avoid double testing.

Marc,

They are being tested on a SL-C3000. It is still too early to get actual results. We expect them later this week. We'll keep you posted.

Could OESF members have a small rebate on those batteries ? I'd be actually interested in giving it a try, since I'm currently testing various zaurus batteries and this one should definitely have a place in the list. Between - your shipping options are really great. $9 Global Priority Mail seems rather honest to me, and it deserves to be noticed given the various outrageous fees on some US shops for international delivery.
Thank you for pointing those out, by the way.
All my reports and testing were made (if no other mention given) on SL-C1000
