Title: is this a safe site?
Post by: bonus41 on April 10, 2012, 05:28:15 PM
i was searching the internet for some info on I-cybie batteries, and came across this site i don't know if it's safe or not. thought maybe I'd get some tips on it... Has anyone ordered from here? I'm looking into a battery and a walk up charger...

That site is linked from several i-cybie sites, I'd say it is legit.

Not sure if this helps or not, but just in case, I have bought from this guy.  :moose:

i saw that as well... it may be better because its home-made, but from the UK i don't know how long that will take to get to here in Canada and it's also $20 more. i wanted to try out the walk up charger to see how good it is i have never tried one before.

I am getting a couple of extra long leads today so that my new arrivals can use their chargers properly :) I'll let you know if either manages to dock today. They didn't previously but I'm sure its because their docks were tucked into a corner.

Edit: With the docks in the open Zenni found hers without a hitch, just waiting to see if Max has the same success.

i ordered both the battery and charger, it looks like i have the 2005 version of i-cybie i don't know the difference between the two, the site said it will take 4 - 6 weeks to deliver :o that's a long wait
