Looks like a pretty good deal - capcity looks a little bit higher then a Tekkeon mp3450 (at 67Wh vs 50Wh)

A couple of things to note:
 - 5V USB only supports up to 500mA
 - You may not be able to lock the voltage (meaning if you bump the voltage selector in use then the voltage may change (description isn't clear on this))

Bumping this old thread because I finally ordered one of these from this listing: http://www.ebay.com/itm/18000mAh-Universal-External-Battery-for-laptops-Mobile-Phones-PDAs-iPods-/130691172867?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item1e6dcd0a03#ht_3322wt_1131

Arrived after just a couple of days and works as expected. Fit and finish identical to the Naztech battery I already have, except this one is silver, not black.

- You may not be able to lock the voltage (meaning if you bump the voltage selector in use then the voltage may change (description isn't clear on this))

To change voltage on this one and the Naztech, you have to press and hold the voltage button until the display starts blinking, then you can cycle through the options. I have not been able to press and hold to enter the volt selection while anything is actually plugged in to the battery. Seems like it locks you out to protect your gear.

I'm doing a couple of tests with this battery to see how long it will run with some different gear. I'll have it running my hd-p2 until it can't anymore. If it is anything like the Naztech I own, 14 hours running the deck with phantom on should be pretty easy.

Thanks for the update!  I've had this battery bookmarked forever but hadn't bought one (until tonight  ;D)

Battery test result: Set up my Tascam HD-P2 with the backlight on, phantom power on and powering Busman mics. Recorded for 13 hours 23 minutes before the battery ran too low.

When I tested the Naztech I had the backlight off. With such similar run times, I am confident that these are the same battery. The ebay version is simply unbranded and 45 bucks cheaper.

Plugs firmly into my m118 and vice versa for the charger for my preamp.  Im 90 percent sure that makes it an N connector.  100 percent sure its not an M   connector.

I could mail you one of the cables if you want, otherwise I'll try to measure it soon.

Thanks fellas.  Just looking to update the "Equipment, External Voltage and DC Plug Size Info" thread http://taperssection.com/index.php?topic=150794.0 and preparing myself for battery cable orders when/if they are requested.

Ted, I'll be able to answer this for sure for you soon.  Since the battery is like a tekkeon in that it can be manually set to many voltages between 5V and 21V, it will work with virtually all of my gear.  I'm gonna figure out which of my respective pieces of gear I'm gonna dedicate this battery to and throw a cable together for it to confirm that N is the right connector.

This battery looks really nice. I'm worried about the voltage button though. It looks like it would be very easy to press the button by mistake and possibly increase or decrease the voltage to the device that is running on it.
Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.
