I also have a V180, and after about a year of use it began to need more and more frequent charging. Before springing for a new battery, I decided to clean up the contacts on the battery as well as the spring-loaded battery contacts in the phone, to see if it helped. I used the mildly abrasive eraser on the end of a pencil, and shazaam! battery is as good as new. No need to spend an extra $18 for a new battery.

My original battery (I have a V180) lasted for about 5 or 6 days before needing a recharge. This is with the phone on 24-hours a day and 2 or 3 conversations per day. After a few months, I noticed that the amount of charge the battery held went down so that now the phone needs a recharge every 3rd or 4th day. I figured it might be good to get replacement battery. Well, I've used this one for a few weeks now and it holds even less charge than my original one does. I have to recharge every 2 or 3 days with the "new" battery. Don't waste your time with this 3rd-party battery unless your existing one is not holding charge at all and you are willing to settle for a mediocre solution. I'm looking for a bona fide Motorola replacement now.

What can I say, it works. This battery replaced a Motorola branded battery purchased from a phone store at twice the price. The branded battery lasted six months. Even if this battery does not last longer, I am still ahead of the game cost wise.

One would think that "standard advertised equipment" could be counted on as trustworthy. Not so. Perhaps I just got a dud. I'll go to Wal-Mart and buy what I need before trusting this product again. First of all it would not fit easily into my cell phone (V180), then there was NO JUICE at all, even after several hours initial charging. Waste of money.

for a 5 oz box. I don't believe I will be doing to much business with Amazon anymore. Shipping once again is where companies are lining their pockets.

I have a parts business and I charge customers exact fare for postage.

I HAVE BEEN WAITING TO CONTACT YOU ABOUT THE HANDS FREE EAR BUD I PURCHASED AS PART OF THIS ORDER. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO HEAR THE CALLER/CALLEE. NOT ENOUGH VOLUME. IT DOES ME NO GOOD TO USE IT WHILE DRIVING. PLEASE HELP.
