Can you buy a more powerful battery for 6220 classic?

Hi, just bought a new Nokia 6220 Classic .

One of the main complaints of the phone is that the battery life is meant to be poor, but i charge my phone overnight everynight anyway.

Just wondering though, is there any where i could by a new and more powerful battery for the 6220 classic?

And does anyone have any experience of putting a more powerful battery into their phone?



Battery that comes with the phone is 900mah but Ive found the likes of these 1000mah batteries-

Would they be safe to use and not break the phone in any way?

Re: Can you buy a more powerful battery for 6220 classic?

Charging a modern Lithium based battery for long periods will, at best, reduce the life span and could be dangerous. You should always follow the charging advice in the manual, so in this case stop charging when the phone says the battery is fully charged and try not to let the battery go flat. This way you will get maximum life and time between charges.
Be careful of third party batteries, there have been reports of overvharging causing fires. If you go for one I would get a personal recommendation.
