HTC Desire charging cradle and spare battery

Hades · 16 May 2010 at 18:43

I'm looking for recommendations on a spare battery and charging cradle. Ideally I'd like a cradle that can charge both the Desire and a spare battery simultaneously.

My old phone (Samsung i750) came with a spare battery and charger and I miss being able to charge one battery while using the other.

I think a lot of places are out of stock atm, I'm not sure.

Everyone seems to have this one - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Desktop-Sync-Cradle-Dock-Mains-Charger-HTC-Desire-/140400886128

The seller also sells batteries too - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Genuine-New-HTC-Desire-Bravo-1400mAh-Battery-BA-S410-/140406025485

Thanks

Edit: Just realised that doesn't seem to charge a second battery at the same time. There's one on the rainforest that does both. I might try that unless anyone has a better recommendation.

this is what I have(comes with a free spare battery), not seen him/her listing anymore on ebay since I got mine.

this is the website of the above seller, have to pay extra to get the battery if you want it.

Woops, sorry. The one fowler linked to was the I originally tried to find.

Is that "device specific" battery a genuine HTC one?

the battery that came with the cradle is not a genuine htc battery, it's this.

I haven't yet tried it out to see how long it lasts, only charged it and checked that it works then put the original battery back in the phone. going to test it one of these days.
