The BlackBerry Thunder Battery is a rechargeable battery that powers your BlackBerry Thunder. It was released along with the phone on October 8, 2008. Manufactured by RIM like most BlackBerry products, it is sold by BlackBerry along with the smartphone, and sold separately by online supply stores like DiscountCell.

The BlackBerry Thunder Battery is essential when using the BlackBerry Thunder. Without it, the phone will have no power. It is rechargeable, but how long a full charge lasts wears down over time, as do all other cell phone batteries. That is why new ones are available for purchase for around $40. Buying an extra battery can also be useful to extend the time you can use your phone on vacations where there isn’t a place to recharge your battery.
