The multi-function battery charger is a pretty slick design. The battery “cartridge” tray allows (in theory) different size batteries to be charged using the base (I say in theory because I haven’t looked to see if you can buy the cartridge trays separately.) The back of the charger states it outputs at 500mA and it took about 2.5 hours to fully charge a depleted 1750mAh extended battery.

The charger has a USB port and a switch that lets you either charge your phone (or any other USB device) from the base while on AC power (even while you’re charging a battery), or you can charge a battery from a USB power source such as your laptop, a handy feature on a plane. Instead of a standard cable, Seidio includes a retractable USB/MicroUSB cable, a nice touch!

One nitpick: the back of the charger says “Carefully read instruction manual before use” however no instruction manual was included. It’s pretty easy to figure out though

Overall this is a very nice charger kit and the price on Amazon makes it that much more attractive. Recommended if you carry a spare battery for your EVO (or anything else this charges).

“Seidio Multi-Function Battery Charger for Use with HTC Droid Incredible, HTC EVO 4G, Droid Eris and Touch Pro 2″ Overview

With Seidio’s Multi-Function Battery Charger, you will never be forced to wait around for one of your batteries to charge. Because this versatile accessory charges both your spare battery and your device at the same time, you will always be powered and ready to go. By plugging the charger into an AC outlet, and the device cable into the charger, you can charge both your battery and your device at the same time. The Multi-Function Battery Charger can also be used as a desktop battery charger when plugged into a laptop with a USB cable (not included). The charger includes a base, a battery charging plate, and a device charging cable. (Device charging cable does not have data/sync capabilities.)

I’m sure it is great – no info or instructions incl. though – J. Brooks –
I’m sure this is a fantastic device. I just bought one for my EVO. Be advised that the only info I have regarding this device is the helpful review before me and the product description. Otherwise, I’m just sitting here scratching my head, since there is zero info or instructions included in Seidio’s package.

Must have item with the Sprint HTC Evo 4G – Jerry Saperstein – Evanston, IL USA
I love my Sprint HTC Evo 4G. It is, in my opinion, the best smartphone made to date. However, even with all kinds of tweaking, you’re going to need a second (or even third or fourth) battery because this phone begs to be used heavily.

This Seidio charger allows you to charge one battery in the phone and another in the detachable tray. You can power it with 110 VAC or from a USB port. I can’t see doing the latter because it would take forever.

The unit is simplity itself a relatively small box with folding prongs. The removable battery tray I mentioned earlier. And a switch on the side for choosing between 110 VAC and USB. My unit came with a USB to microUSB cable.

Pop a battery in the tray, another in the phone and in a couple of hours or so, youhave two fully charged batteries.

The unit weighs only a few ounces and packs very nicely.

If you have an Evo 4G, you want an extra battery (or two or three) and this charger,

Jerry
