This is exactly what I wanted at a great price! My wife and I have 3G iPhones. At about 13% battery it takes this item (fully charged) about 2 hours (if not used) to charge the phone. But to be clear, you can use the phone while this item is plugged in. (It may slow down the charge time or maybe under heavy use just extend the run time and not actually charge...I haven't tested them that thoroughly. I say "them" because we each have one of these. At work, one of my employees has use it on his iPod and it said it worked good and couldn't believe I got this so cheap. (2 with free shipping for $29.90)
With the 30-day refund, this should be a no brainer!

I had an earlier model which worked just fine. I brought this new version and as soon as I plugged it into my phone, it turned my 3GS into toast.

I bought two of these about a week back. While I can't and don't don't blame the manufacturer for this, the battery design is incompatible with the very-popular Otterbox Defender case. The plug isn't physically long enough to mate up with the Otterbox-recessed socket. I've gone so far as to purchase an extension cord, because I want to use these batteries so badly. However, the manufacturers of _this_ accessory enlarged the plastic part of the plug itself, making it too wide and long for the Otterbox. So, since it's a major pain the butt to remove the phone from an Otterbox case (twenty minutes and you need some form of foot/baby powder handy, or else the screen fogs) I reckon I'll probably never get to use these batteries that I wanted so badly. (As important as they are to me, the Otterbox is more so.) I'm keeping them anyway, in the hope that I can find a different extension socket or... something. (Ideas and recommendations are welcome.)
The root problem here is a lack of overall standardization; we've got plenty of good iPhone accessories to choose from, but they won't always work together. I don't have a cure to propose for this problem, and I suspect I couldn't use any of the other popular "extension"-type batteries on the market either. But I wanted to warn other Otterbox users that this accessory (like too many others) isn't compatible with the case. I'd also like to ask Giessbach to consider offering an extension plug and cable (with a _correct_-sized plug) as new product line. The Otterbox, I suspect, isn't the only case that this battery (and many other accessories) is incompatible with. I think such a cable would sell well.
I gave the product four stars because a rating was required, and I didn't want to make this product look bad without just cause. In point of fact, I have no experience with it at all beyond trying to force it past the case into the socket while muttering angry words to myself.
