Test 1 - Mobile Phone, Nokia 3510i

The mobile phone Activator should be able to fit most modern Li-Ion batteries. If the battery is too small, you simply cut the Activator to size. According to the specifications, at least 80% of the battery side facing the mobile phone must be covered by the Activator.

Before attaching the Activator, this 18 month old battery lasted exactly 201 hours on stand-by (phone turned on, but not in use). This is pretty good, but when it was new it lasted more than 300 hours, so it has diminished somewhat. With the Activator pad carefully attached to the battery, we discharged and charged the phone 8 times. Timing the next cycle revealed a discharge time of about 202 hours.

This is not enough of a difference to conclude that the Activator had any positive effect at all. Batterylife did not offer any reasonable explanation for this poor test result, except for the battery being 'too new, too good'.
