Touch Diamond on bicycle
Apr 19 2009, 1:17 PM EDT
Hi,I like to tour on my bicycle and use my HTC Touch Diamond for GPS, both navigation and logging. Unfortunately the GPS is rather power-hungry and the battery doesn't have enough juice to power it for a complete trip. So I'm looking for a decent external battery that's good for 5 to 6 extra hours. Any recommendations? Also, can you recommend a decent holder for mounting on the handle-bar? TIA Steven Do you find this valuable?

I have the Mogul and found a bicycle mount here: http://www.bracketron.com/index.php?catid=14&pid=100and combined it with the holder here: http://www.bracketron.com/index.php?catid=6&pid=21 to make it easy to go between bike and car. Don't know about the battery tho - sorry! 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

hi there, for portable charging i use the official HTC battery bank, whilst not cheap ive found it invaluable whilst on the road or when on-call out and about and need to use heavy internet/gps. Its provides about 4 charges for the phone from one charge of the battery bank, its about the same size as the diamond. You just charge it with the same usb cable and just turn the cable around and plug the device into the phone to charge the phone. Its available from here http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=171883. Hope this helps.
