Review: BlackBerry J-Series Extra Battery Charger Bundle for Bold 9900/9930

I would use it at the cottage where my signal goes from 3G to 2G and kills my battery

One of the most creative idea to solve the short battery of my 9900! I want one!

This is not even up anymore. But, sure. I want it.

I'm a heavy media user and could really use an extra battery.

I want it !!!!!

Boom, I want this!

i could totally use that since i travel a lot thats would be perfect to me so i dont have to run out of battery all the time

i would use it when i m going fishing

I use voice recorder and movies to maintain the integrity of the written notes taken at my many meetings attended daily. Not having to stress over battery availabliity, will keep my thoughts focused on the comments @ hand and will be a major life-saver throuought my hectic day,

Being able to recharge a low battery without losing connectivity would releive a lot of stress, the kind I have when only working with a single battery.

I hope I win this multi-charge unit, 'cuz it will keep my BB productivity maxed and I can focus more on the incredible tools and help-mates to make this my most productive BB phone ever.

Charging two battery at once is awesome.

this is perfect! I would have this on my nightstand, keeping both hard-worked batteries fresh! Great idea!

This is another great product that would come in handy while I am traveling. Thanks Crackberry.

i neeed it

It'd be a great product for me because I am addicted to my phone, take a lot of pictures, am on Twitter constantly, and generally kill my Bold 9900 battery after 6 hours or so. This would help me get through the nights and days without a charger in my pocket.

would be great for those vacation moments when charging isn't always handy!

Great add-on to improve the 9930's battery life!

My Torch 9860 has the same CRAPPY battery. I would love this, pretty plz with a cherry on top!

Hope can win this from another country...

I'd love to win.

I would charge batteries with it!

My Bold 9900 along with my Playbook could benefit from the extra charge!!! And I can use the extra time reading CRACKBERRY.com....

awesome accessory because of travelling between jobs where I won't get to charge my phone constantly..

is it over? ;) My battery died and phone couldn't charge in time to post this by Sun Jan 1 midnight ...

if only I had this charging bundle, I would never miss any contest deadlines!

(in all seriousness, this is perfect for the road warrior who is constantly making calls, etc. you can carry this with your laptop and plug it in, charging your phone and/or spare battery while not on a call for example. Nothing hurts more than being on the road and finding out you're disconnected from the world because BB couldn't make a phone w/ a long lasting enough battery)

Me Me Me !

Would use this, so would wife.

getting a Bold 9900 this week - this looks like a nice accessory!

This is a great accessory. I'd probably use it the same way that Obi posted by placing it on the desk along with the 9900 charging pod. It would also put an end to my habit of constantly checking battery levels throughout the day!

want

I had a spare for my Bold 9650 and I would like to win one for my 9930.

I would love to win this. This will definitely keep my BB alive and going throughout the day.

This would let me get through the day at work! Thanks CB!

This is probably the most important accessory to own. As a new 9930 owner, I am shocked that my battery wont make it all day so I need to have a charging cable at home, at work, in the car, ... OR I could get one of these! Problem solved...If I don't win it, I'll save my pennies!

everytime i need to charge my battery, i tend to be reluctant to move away from the charging point, since the charger is the phone and i cannot get away from my phone. with this charging case, i can leave my depleted battery charging and still be able to move around with my phone.

Good Review, very useful. Please enter me

Thanks

I got me a 9930 for christmas and this would be perfect for it. Plus, my wife keeps stealing my charger for her droid..

I wouldn't be constantly need to charge my battery everywhere i go and keep an extra wire in my car in case i need the charger somewhere else..

I would use this for camping

man i sure could use one cuz i am always on the go plz pick me

I want it! Let me stop thinking about an Android phone!

I got a new 9930 on Saturday and it would LOVE one.

It would come in handy when my battery dies!

this would be very handy for my heavy use of my wonderful 9900

Would really love this to help me keep going all day and night.

One,please!!

This extra battery bundle would be great for me at work. I don't always have access to an electrical outlet. With this, I could always have juice in my phone and another battery on the charger.

My car charger broke, so this would be nice! anyway HAPPY NEW YEAR everybody!

Would be a great new accessory for my new bold 9900!

I need it!! Pleaseeee!! My 9900 allways dies in the middle of my dayy!!

I really need this for my 9930!

Yes Please! Could use more power

This makes charging less messy.

Man, I can really use this.

I'm in for one.

i would LOVE to win this!

Me want!! <3

I would love this to help keep me going all day long, especially when I'm camping with my girl guides and may not have access to power for the weekend.

battery life is horrible on my 9900
I need this charger!

I would use it everyday and be able to remain on the move instead of tethered to a power outlet!

My 9900 would love this!!!!!

Need this!

I would use the extra battery constantly. As someone who works in politics, but loves a Blackberry phone, its tough to make continuous phone calls and text messages on the Bold 9900 without having it run out of battery quickly. An extra battery would come in very handy.

me please

So in ed of this!! Would use it daily to keep the apps on my berry running!!! Thanks.

perfect! :) Neeeed it!

I got a spare battery but no way to chagre it w/o using my 9930 :(

Doubling my away-from home time would be awesome for me and my bold 9900..

no price in the review - useless

clicking a link to the product which for some stupid reason redirects to the canadian crackberry store. - useless

This would get me to buy a 9900

I want this so bad. It makes the battery life much more acceptable and I can once again tout my 9900 without the need of carrying a charger and praying for a wall outlet.

and from the looks of it, it can charge other devices as well?! =O ! (and I have many micro usb thingermaboppers)

THIS IS PERFECT!!!!

I used to have so many spare batteries for my 9700 which I also used with my 9780 and when I got my 9900 I was so upset it was a different battery and gave all my spare batteries to my friends. This product would be perfect for me!

I would use it at work so I'd never have to worry about battery life again.

MEEEE

I spend a lot of time in hotels. This would be great to have my heavy day of use in meetings and then be able to switch to the battery that I just charged that day for use at night...yup that would make life easier....

I have a 9930 and my GF has a 9850 an extra battery and chargier would help us rotate through batteries amongst each other and not have to worry about a dead battery.

I could really use this to keep my 9930 charged at all times. I hope I win. Thanks for the chance and Happy New Year!!

I would use it e-v-e-r-y-d-a-y! :)

Dont see why this wouldnt work for my 9860 so consider myself entered to win :-)

I manage a small outsourcing company, that said, I always look for ways to integrate my work systems to my blackberry. And running apps sure drains hell lot of power to your battery. Having this would surely help (especially when your glued to your bb and momentum is building to finish your work). End goal: run the company operations using blackberry while your at the beach. Selfish that I am. lol

I love this phone but the battery life is shorter than my 9780, this would be a real help! :)

Me want this!

i would love this to use at work so i dont have to charge device at home

I would do the same I have a great set up on my desk so I would use the charging dock with it so it looks profesional and awesome right on my desk.

I too have a 9900 and am surprised the battery doesn't last as long as the 9810 I just swapped out for this. I just purchased the car charger through CrackBerry and debated about getting an extra battery. I opted not to get the spare battery given the fact that Christmas just wiped me out. My 9900 could REALLY use this charging bundle.

This is perfect! I travel a lot (with long 12-14 hour work days) and the only thing that can save me from a dead BB is this :-) Pick me

i would use it on my desk one plugged in to my 9850 cradle and the other to the battery charger. nice to be able to charge battery without using the phone

This would be perfect when i go on my business trips n dont have time to charge my phone!

What I've been waiting for all my life!! Yes PLEASE!!

I waaaaannnttt :)

I would use this for 24/7 business!

The Y cable with the bundle is great! I surely could use this at night. My school campus is in a fringe area and that eats up my battery. With this bundle I can swap batteries at school and then charge the swapped out battery at the same time I charge my device, while sleeping.

Coming from a 9700 the 9900's battery will only last a fraction of the time. I have found myself several times with a dead battery in the early evening. I want this bad!

I would use this charging bundle all the time. I use my phone so much that it barely last's me half the day :(. I don't always like bringing my wall charger because If I am out and don't have my bag or there is no outlet, then I'm screwed. My phone will die and that is not good.

Perfect example: For New Years, I went to Niagara Falls (Canada, Ontario) all day to spend with my family. My phone died and I was phone-less for hours. I could not call anybody and could not charge my phone until I got home (3:30 am). When I charged it, all my messages came at once and holy hell.. That was crazy!

this would be great

My sister, like me, also has a 9900 and I would really like to give this to her since she uses her phone constantly and always forgets to charge it.

Would love one of these.

I have found a need to be able to charge both the phone and extra battery at the same time. this would work out very well.

I would really enjoy having the back up battery! I could have a fully charged battery in my suitcase and no longer need to pray for working power outlets on planes!

This accessory would make my life much easier. I would use it when traveling with work and family. It would be great at conferences that are out of town where you normally need to charge at least once during the day. I often work late into the night and it would be great for that as well. Not having to "manage" my one battery would be just one less thing I would have to worry about! Happy New Year!!!

It would be a spare battery, and a gift for my dad and it would score me points with the old man

double entry, please delete

This would be great for me because I travel a lot and I use my phone heavily; an extended battery would be nice.

How would I use it? Let me think... :) Perhaps sitting on my desk, and charging my 9900 and the spare battery, because when I am on the move, and have no chance to charge, my 9900 after 8 hours is dead-empty :(

This is something that would be great. I never seem to be able to make the day on a charge with my usage.

I need this in my life!

Hello Santa,,,,Yes i need exactly that! ;);)

I'd keep this by my bedside table with one end hooked to my charging pod and the other charging my spare battery so I wouldn't have to worry about charging until the next night when I go to bed.

id use it to swap out batteries half way through the day when my bold dies

ok im typing this on my playbook hehehe, anyways it would helpnme to have a second battery on me because we know the 9900 battery drains quickly and im tired of going out like i did for new years and dropping my phone to 2g to conserve battery juice for pics and new years msgs because being on 2g sucks for speed just to conserve battery. having the j series, i can have 2 batteries charged and not drop to 2g ever again!

i can haz?

An extra charged battery and a place to charge one would be a great addition!

this could save my day...would love to have this...

sign me up. My 9900 would love this. I could totally use it for my long sales days!!

Wow, the Y cable would rock as I use my PlayBook charger for my Bold 9900 as well so this would allow me to be sure to never be out of battery on both devices.

I've been watching this accessory ever since I got my new 9900 but it's a little out of my budget for the moment, been trying to catch a deal, but have yet to find one so winning it would rock!

I could definitely use this since I'm always on the run, emailing and texting for work.

I would use it to keep my BB 9930 running longer!!
Well, well, well, will my 9930 battery problems be solved with this charging bundle???
Hope so! Thanks CrackBerry! Happy New Year!!

Well one of my new year resolutions was to get my Bold 9930...check! This year is all about keeping things as simple as possible, so why do I need one? Because I have a blackberry bold 9930...how would I use it? In a very bold way!!! Happy new year to all...∞

This would be much better to use than some $5 universal charger!

... i have the wall charger at home.. i'd leave the standalone charger in the office with one (of three) of my spare batteries.. hence i have power wherever I go...

wow ...THIS IS REALLY COOL... I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE ONE..

Perfect New Years gift. Thanks CB! I would use it so that I don't have to charge my Torch 9860 by early evening.

have pb. will get 9900 soon. extra battery charged and ready would be nice.

I would use this in place of my generic extra battery charger, which sometimes breaks at the contacts and I have to solder it to fix it....

i am a firefighter on the 24 hour shift. this bundle would be great to ensure that i have my bb to use all day long in the field!

i would really like this for my Bold 9930 ! :)

so I can always have a fresh battery

I'm in

As others have stated, the battery life is disgraceful with the 9900, count me in this draw.

i would leave them at work, charge both batteries and use them till next day. alternating between the 2

i would use this product Daily !!! BB Power User ! and a Full Charge lasts me less than a third of my day : ( Never Won anything before ! this would be a good 1st prize : ) Hook me up CB team !!! im on here everyday

my 9900 battery is not even lasting till 8pm a night! i would love to have this new charger bundle! happy new year!

Always need a spare battery for my 9900. Great phone but needs a little bit more juice for the day. This will keep me ready for the whole day!

doesn't matter if 9900 has a poor battery life. it's an awesome device and i love it! and this kit would really make it better!

pls give it to me! My Bold is running out of juice daily and i can't get one her in germany, because shipping alone would be 45$ to my place :(

This bundle would definitely save my life in so many occasions!

Without this charging bundle there is no way my 9900 would make it through a day. It hasn't managed it yet. This is pretty much a necessity in order to use this phone. Plus, it is a pretty generous contest from CrackBerry!

I will use it for sure

I could definitely use the 9900 charging bundle. If I start work early in the day and wish to listen to any music during the day while working I will arrive home on fumes. If I don't go home after work or spend enough time in the car to give her a decent charge, she won't make it until the wee hours.

It is very convenient for me cos my 9900 battery is so weak,i must charge it every 12h so i want this.Thanks so much !

I would use this regularly.
My battery doesn't last me through a day in the office and I often have to rely on a USB cable to charge up my 9900 constantly.
This would help to reduce my reliance on my charger mid-day through my work day

I run out of juice so fast with my 9930, this bundle would relieve a lot of stress during each frantic day at work!

Oh I REALLY need this for my 9900!!! Battery life drives me insane sometimes! RIM made a good device, but they opted for crappy battery life. Arg....

This would be nice for the office charger

HI I work on the road and I use my BB for email, conference calls, regular calls txt, BBM...so when I am running around between customers and meetings, my battery drains fairly quickly on my 9900, bummer!! SO I am always looking for a place to plugin to charge!!
So having this, I would plug it in overnight when i go bed and have enough juice to carry me over till I get home with no issues.

Thanks for the opportunity Crackberry!!

Sweet accesory!

wow, this would be amazing to win!! im currently suffering of a device that wont last one whole business day, i keep all my connections on and it simply drains my battery! i keep the vzw on (obviuosly), keep the wifi on since i gave up my unlimited data since upgrading to my bold9930 (had storm2 9550) and since im in and out of wifi networks it doeant make sense to be disabling then enabling it, and i keep my bluetooth always on so the playbook and/or allerta inpusle smartwatch stay connected....so as you see im always suffering from a drained device. if i win this device, i'll keep it on my nightstand so it can have the batt charger and the 9930 cradle always connected and charge over nighr. during the day i'll simply take the 9930 w/ batt case + batt ready to replace the drained battery. please hook me up crackberry!!!

i changed from bold 9780 to 9900 and i am very heavy bb user. with the 9780 i use to charge only at night before sleeping but with the 9900 the battery hardly lasts for the day and most of my time i am out of the office so charging my bb is not an option an extra battery that can be charged simultaneously with my phone is exactly what i need

Would love to get this and give to my girlfriend who always end up with a dead battery. This way, we can always be in touch! :)

What power user couldn't use this? I often need to carry my charger to plug in throughout the day. This would fix this for me.

This would resolve a major issue with my BB. Winning would start my year off with a bang.

Thank you.

really how manytimesdo you have to post to actually win something? anyways, Happy new year crackberry and #bebold in 2012

This is perfect! As a nursing working mom my phone really only charges for a few hours because it's also used for work (clearly), as a baby log (nursing, changes, act) and also for my everyday twitter junky self. Needless to say my phone rarely gets a break and is dead far to often.

this would make my life easier... a lot easier. i have long working days and i find myself running out of juice on my 9900 pretty often lately.

to charge my 9900 ofcourse! is there any other way to use it?

Working 2 Shifts makes having a spare battery for my 9930 a necessity, this would make life much more convenient in keeping my spare battery charged

Well, well, well, will my 9930 battery problems be solved with this charging bundle???
Hope so! Thanks CrackBerry!

I would use it to keep my BB 9900 running longer!!

Power! Keeping the RIMpire alive! That is why I need this.

8100-->8830-->9670-->9930=PlayBook

this would keep my berry juiced all the time

I would love to win this because the battery life is bad on my 9900 and it limits me from using my phone to it's maximum potential without blowing the battery off! Thanks CB!

Yeehaaa, I got bb chargers placed almost everywere! This charger would allow me to recharge a second battery without modifying my setup :) great stuff!

9900 battery life isn't the greatest. This will help me through the busy days.

Would definitely let me go a whole day of not having a dead BlackBerry :-)

This will be so awesome to have. I need to have my phone juiced up.

The battery life is aggravating. This will be helpful as I'm always on the road.

I would use this to help maintain my Pandora fix.

I would have it by my bedside every night while charging my phone AND I would take the whole bundle along with me throghout the day just to be on the safe side.

I would use this on my trips! I'm always traveling and using the GPS on my phone. This will definitely come in handy!

Vehicle kicked the bucket and phone battery drained while still working and waiting for lift. Extra battery would have been great.

I have had a great battery experience with my 9930, but I have OCD about always having emergency battery life. I do keep a spare battery with me now, but when I switch out the dead battery for the replacement, I'm left with a dead back up until I can charge the current back to 100%, then replace with dead battery and charge that one back to 100% all through my phone. With this charging bundle I would always have one battery in phone, one fully charged back up with me (in a fitted protected case), and one at home already fully charged for the next day. I would never have to worry about a dead Bold again.

My battery lasts only until 5 which is great for business but horrible for my personal life! I would love this.

I would really love to get this please! :D My 9900 always dies in the middle of the day, and it would be sooo awesome to get it for free, since it's not even available in my country.

I would use this in my office!! Really want this thanks cb!

I love my 9900, best phone ever; however, the battery life suckkks! I get ~10hr battery life and have a 2 hour roundtrip commute every weekday -- thus my phone shuts off on my way home if i dont recharge it before then. I would have an awesome new year rockin this J series charger so as to always have two charged batteries and a lot less reliance upon USB cords, car chargers and wall chargers.

I'm a pretty heavy user on my 9900. As this charges two at a time, I can take both with me when I'm out and pop in a fully juiced battery while the one I'm using gets low. My signal is always low which drains the battery even more.

I can't imagine not wanting this! I have an extra battery & charger that I keep in my car for the 9000. I would love to do the same for my soon to be new 9900!!

How I'd use it: To it's full extent to maximize my Crackberry addiction. Yes, please. Thanks.

This would make my 9900 twice as good!!!

me want

This would be the coolest late christmas gift ever!

I'm lazy too & would enjoy to get one for my bold 9900.

becausw im taking the time out of my new years jam to stress how important battery life on my 99 is, come on bb bold 2012!

Please can I win one! Me love you long time!!!

Although my Bold 9900 has a good battery, this would PERFECT for my travels! Never would go dead! :) Happy New Year!

I love to win. Pick me

I bought 2 spare batteries from Crackerry.com and it is a pain to charge them, I would love this Accessory!!!!

Just got the 9930 and I'm having fun exploring all the features this would be great

Wish I had one!

This would be perfect. My battery is nearly dead by the end of the day and I don't always have enough time to charge it before I go out for the night. Unfortuantely there have been many times when my poor Bold has been useless on my nights out.

My bold 9900 battery life sucks, especially when you go to dental school from 8-5 everyday and then have to go to study at the library till 10, this would make my life a bit easier !

Just got my 9930 today and would love to have this in the new year.

Happy New Year 2012

This would be the perfect addition to my 9900.

Pick me!!!

This would keep me on the move thru the hours of conference calls several times a week!!

i was thinking of buying one of these.
having one on my nightstand would get me through the day without problem.

please let me win.

Lovin' the blackberry 9900! An accessory would be great :)

I travel a lot and with airports practically hiding all their electrical outlets this would come in handy.

I'd like to have one just so when I don't have to keep my 9900 connected to my car charger every time I get in it.

I really need this for my 9900. I have an extra batt but need the external charger to charge both at the same time. I really hope I can win this.

since im a heavy bb user and have teathering(mobile hotspot) on at all times and constant use of bluetooth and the horrible battery life of the 9900\30 i will use this to have multiple batteries charged and ready for use at all times

Would love to have this please....been eyeing this for a while since I have the Bold 9900.

It would really help me out a lot! Really sucks having to charge the battery while it's in the phone. This charger looks sick!

This will definitely come in handy next semester of college when I have 8 hour days, not including the bus ride to and from campus.

I really need this!!!!!!

I would use this bundle to be sure I had a charged battery all the time. I use my 9900 for work and the battery runs down quick.

This is a great bundle; thank you for the opportunity to win one!

sweet set up, i'd love to have for the days when i'm listinging to pandora all day.

After receiving an extra battery as part of the warranty exchange, I can take it out the drawer and charge it with this! My battery life sucks with both batteries. Obviously a phone issue...I need this!

I desperately need this for my home and office. Reception is horrible both places. I have 3 batteries but it is hard to get them all charged quickly. Winning this would be heaven. Hope my luck is good in 2012.

Battery life of my 9900 isn't as horrible as I'd feared, but it still isn't what I was hoping for after the stellar performance of my 9700. Pick me please!

Here I go again trying to win an awesome accessory hopefully this time I win

I'm power hungry. Please send it to me for my 9850!

I'm lucky to make it home with any battery left at all. I would leave it right by my bed where I charge my 9900 each night. That way I can fall asleep reading.

seems like an excellent solution.....to a problem that sadly shouldnt exist

i would love to have a shot on gettin this one coz really i cant go back on the iphone and androids. the bold 9900 is the best blackberry i owed hands down but the battery is really killing me specially when im working =( im an new york state EMT and i need the battery for my 12 hrs shift! hopefully i get it....win or not....great review =) happy new year!

I want :)

When I go on long trips I would love to have two spare batteries charged fully so I can always access crackberry.com!

I want one!
Thanks and Happy new year!

I want this so I can maintain continuous web surfing and music listening, after winning I would then place the second battery in a holster on my side and become the faster battery switcher in all of North America.....

Would love to have this while travelling. Could keep me connected without having to worry about being without my 9930.

Yes please!

This will be helpful for my blackberry! :)

I could surely give a good use of this battery!!

me me me me me

Well, if you insist......

This would be a much needed addition as I run multiple emails and overseas transaction through my Blackberry 9930 on a daily bases. This would make life that much more simple. On that note happy new year!

I always get my BB accesories from crackberry, so this will be added to my collection of great products from them. For my lifestyle, this charger would definately simply my life a little when it comes to charging my phone and the spare battery. Being a college student, I'm always in and out, doing my papers or homework on the go on my BB, so I tend to lose juice very easily. So this charger would be perfect to use in the dorm and in between classes or before going out; its a peace of mind knowing that if my battery is low or about to die, that I have one waiting that is already charged and ready to go! :)

My 9930 Battery life is #####!!!!!! I need this battery

A gaget for my BB! Yahoo! Pick me Please!

I would love this for my phone or girlfriends 9850! Haandy for either of us.

Hey....! This is the perfect solution for my 9900.... !!!!

Having a VZW 9930 and running on this bad network, always switching from 3g to 1x eats my battery alive. it would be nice to know what this phone is REALLY capable of with a decent amount of juice...and besides with the Y charger laziness is part of the fun!

I like all other 9900 users need one of these... Please pick me! I'm tired of constantly charging this thing!

i would use it for sure :)

need one.
