We buy this one and it lasts quite long but not nearly as long as the oem version, is there a non oem version that performs longer/better?

I bought 2 already and it only lasted a few months. Last one was lasted only 3 months so never again.

since all of these are generic what I look for is the one with a longest warranty and cheaper price. The actual casing of the lamp is all the same but the bulb is the same as what sony uses. Or you can call a tv repairman and charge you $150.00 to $250.00 for a 5 Min. Job. Again what you are looking at is the age of the tv ,if the cooling fan isn't working right it will overheat the bulb.

Has anyone been using this beyond 3 months? How long has it lasted you and why do you continue to use it?

It seems to last 3 to 4 times longer than the original,,,now after having it almost a year it only seems to want to charge to 76 %capacity,,, which is STILL 2 &1/2 times longer than the original,,,OK for the $$$$

Do you mean 10 years? My Mom had her original for years and I think she somehow wore it down early. But it was still years. This puppy is working great so far. And at this price the battery is essentially free. :-)She was having reception/dropped calls issues. Her house is on a mountain. She said she thinks the connection is getting sketchier because of the battery not holding as much of a charge. I said I don't think so. Well we got this replacement battery and the call reliability seems a lot better. Go figure.

To me, it lasts at least as the original when it was new and maybe longer. It is really hard to tell without all parameters being equal in a head on replicated test which of course i have not done. Under my normal use I am getting through the day every day and still have about 50% of the charge left, where as my old battery that was greatly reduced in its ability to function correctly was often not getting me through the day and in some instances dying during the morning hours. In the older batteries younger life it did last all day and I would then again charge it overnight.

Yes it lasts longer, I did a 10 hours long ride with this on my bike and on full fire(Constant lighting). and even after that it lasted for couple more weeks for 2 to 2.30 hours rides. It gradually dims while its running out of charge.

I've only owned this model. I just bought a replacement for my original that lasted 10 years.

Refurbished cartridges last longer than the OEM versions. I have had mine for about four months and I am on my second cartridge. The first OEM cartridge went out after three weeks and the refurbished I'm still using. I print quite a bit since this is my work printer.

I had to return mine as well,even though the number matched to the original.My recommendation is that you pay more,but buy the real thing from HP.I am glad I did,it works great ,last for at least 6 hours. Sincerely, E.Schmidt

Same deal here with my OEM battery. So frustrating. This was a gift...just started to learn to fly the thing well, and now the battery will not work. Pretty lame that the battery did not last longer for an OEM. I just ordered a NON OEM replacement.

I have had mine for almost a year and it works moderately well. I am sure it is not the original manufacturer version. It is lighter, with less solid construction, and cheaper plastic components. It also doesn't have some of the same features as the one at my hair salon or at Ulta when I went to compare. It never occurred to me it was a knock off being sold here, but I should have known based on the price difference.

These batteries don't have the capacity to hold a charge for very long. This one actually has a little more capacity than the OEM. I get an hour or more with it at least and about 20 or 30 minutes with the original that came with my computer. It also charges fast.

I bought this battery (1800mah) from PINKTECH to replace 1500mah OEM, and this battery lasts much shorter than the OEM one with 1500mah. It only lasts about 5 hours of idle. Not recommended.

By your question I can't tell what the 'cheaper one listed by you at this link' actually is...there is no link to it...just a link to Amazon. If you could let me know what that other one was I might be able to explain what differences there are. With that in mind...I bought this one because of the durability of this particular unit. I did some research and this one had a much lower failure rate and is supposed to last much longer than most of the others.

It seems to me this does last a little longer than the stock one - about 5-10%. the stock battery in my T-Mo note is pretty good - one of the best stock/oem batts I've had. Generally the Note gets good batt life unless you're running jelly bean without fine-tuning
