It turns out that the Mugen battery group are CLUELESS IDIOTS.

I was one of the FIRST to buy one of the large batteries from Mugen for my N900.

I also bought several smaller batteries from Mugen for my N900.

It turns out that I LOST my cover recently on one of my frequent trips from Los Angeles to San Diego.

So now Mugen REFUSES TO SELL ME A REPLACEMENT.

Mugen CANNOT LOOK ME UP IN ITS RECORDS because that requires effort.

Mugen has lost a customer.

Just in case anyone cares, which I doubt, my real name is

I have one... it is broken in its first usage. Just be careful, it is my second (not the same, but all from china) that exploded. NEVER let it out of your eyes.

dr_frost, what about putting into post # 2 info about difference between 1st gen and 2nd gen of mugen covers? I'm not lazy, but even I have trouble finding info about that in so huge topic. I even don't know which one i ordered following current instruction in post #2

Well i have never had a gen1, they sold gen2 from way before i bought my first mugen cover, so i don't expect to buy gen1 unless buying used from ebay....

the difference is of course important, the gen1 has no magnet so this means no MicroSD unless you put in your own mini magnet (which you can buy from many sites)
I cannot not remember if the camera "shutter" was present on gen1.

But again you should not run into gen1 covers unless you buy second hand.

With some days of testing, i can say that with the soldering wire is working very well, awesome battery length, i can finally use the phone all the day without thinking about the energy saving.
