Two months. How are those Centro batteries working?

**GoSteelers** · 08/10/2009, 09:45 AM

It's been two months, any issues using Centro batteries yet?

**kmehr** · 08/10/2009, 10:10 AM

Great.... Have not had any problems at all! They hold charge just as long os the Pre batteries as well.

**blkav8r** · 08/10/2009, 10:11 AM

I use my centro batteries as backup batteries... I don't charge them in the Pre... I charge in either my 800w or Centro - no issues yet.

**Protagonist** · 08/10/2009, 10:12 AM

Works great, dont believe the FUD!

**casiouser** · 08/10/2009, 10:29 AM

Any of you charging them with your Pre?

**ronlongo** · 08/10/2009, 10:49 AM

I thought it would be great having the second battery but my Pre lasts all day (or most of the day on days I decide to listen to music). In any case, I've got chargers strategically located (home, office desk, car). So my Centro battery has become pretty useless.

They still work perfectly. Exactly the same as the Pre batteries. Sorry to disappoint.

**GoSteelers** · 08/10/2009, 10:56 AM

Not disappointing. I'm glad to hear it. I have two Centro batteries sitting waiting to be used.

Me too. No problems.

My son busted his Centro LCD a few months ago and got an Instinct. I kept his phone, and it is now a spare charger for my batteries.

Have any of you charged that Centro battery in the Pre... via Touchstone?

**rmackay** · 08/10/2009, 11:44 AM

I do all the time, and no problems to date... knock on wood!

Are you responding to me or the o.p.?

**kmehr** · 08/10/2009, 11:34 PM

I have an external battery charger and thats how I charge my batteries mainly, however, I have occasionally charge the phone via the USB adapter. So far So Good! These batteries are the exact same.... See my post from when this first was brought up. -->

The specs are exactly the same when comparing the mV via ##debug#

**notaphonegeek** · 08/10/2009, 11:44 PM

No problems here either. Touchstone or directly with the pre.

**stevo101** · 08/10/2009, 11:59 PM

Of course, why wouldnt you? They are the exact same thing. Charge them just like you would charge the Pre battery USB, AC, touchstone, external charger... whatever. They are exactly the same.

1) I didn't ask I'd you would. I was asking if anyone did. Now I know. Thank you.

2) Not everyone agrees that they're exactly the same. That's partially why this thread of-interest.

This topic has been beaten to death. The fact that they are functionally identical should be quite clear by now.

where can i get a 1700 mah centro battery?!?! any links peoples?

**huynhc** · 08/13/2009, 02:17 AM

I use the seidio ext battery made for the centro. Absolutely no problems. Charge with oem wall adapter, sprint car chager, generic wall charger, and touchstones. working great!
