Guest campdave Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 I'm used to poor battery life on my N95, and usually carrt a spare battery round with me. I've just got my pulse, and think it potenitally could be a battery drainer, and would like to buy a spare battery - can't seem to find any on ebay. Anyone know of any stockists?

This seems to be a general issue, the phone uses the same battery as one of the Huawei mobile internet access points and nobody can find replacment batteries for either of them. I guess either t-mobile, some other operator will provide them or 3rd party batteries will become available at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rjm2k Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 I emailed the tmobile accessories people (who turn out to be a company called Kondor) from the tmobile site, they said they didn't have spares for this phone but suggested I called tmobile directly on 0800 956 2208 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC orange's spares are handled by a similar 3rd party co as well. From similar warranty-based battery woes I've read about t-mobile have had to replace entire handsets for want of a new battery from Huawei....

Guest eager_b Posted December 31, 2009 Report Share Posted December 31, 2009 A quick google gave this link (mobilephonecrazy.com). They also claim to have genuine original Pulse batteries (for twice the price). Anyone know anything about them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sengadog Posted December 31, 2009 Report Share Posted December 31, 2009 (edited) Thanks for the links: have ordered one from the M-99 website. Will report back on my experience. M-99, Speedy Delivery etc are the same company based on the industrial estate in Newark so i cannot see why they are charging different prices for the same thing. It appears some people have had issues with this company. Do a google search and check out their credientials, especially the complaints board posting. Hopefully though they have these in stock because I'm sure they will be selling loads. Edited December 31, 2009 by Sengadog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest campdave Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Have you had any communication from them yet? or did you get your battery? Order been cancelled unfortunately. Ordered a portable usb charger which takes AA batteries in it's place. Battery life seems to have settled down on pulse and able to get more or less a full day on a charge (and more if I leave it on 2G), which is improvement on N95.
