    Mines got a silicon carbon battery with 7000mA. It’s very nice. Most days I don’t get below 50%.

      My device has 5,000 mAh, but I keep it between 30% at the lowest and 80% at the highest, so I’m only using 2,500 mAh of the total capacity. So having a larger battery would be really nice.

        That’s what I did.

        This Silicon Carbon battery chemistry I’ve learned works different Lithium Ion. SC likes to be charged to 100%. So I’ve been fully charging each night on a slow 15W charger. So far so good.

          Oh, that’s gonna be a new fun paradigm. I’m still used to only charging lithium to 80% that having to make sure it’s charged to 100 will be a novelty for quite a while.
