Would be good if you make another video telling us about the REAL time use of the battery. The Menu says something like 5:47 hours but we know that this is probably wrong. So if you make a comparassion with others batterys on the market would be a good one.
Looks like I came too late to this party. Neither the 2Ah nor the 1.2Ah LiPo Turnigy batteries are available that I've been able to find. At least, not in the voltage and dimensions needed for PSP batteries. I'm hoping they're just in a shortage and haven't been completely discontinued. I've just recently been looking for a 2Ah since I'm wanting to do this for my PSP-1000, but have been hitting roadblocks.
I looked around for a while and was able to get the turnigy 2Ah lipo from a site called othermod for $15 shipped. I removed the small bms on the turnigy battery and soldered the battery cell to the psp battery board and its been great so far.
Sorry to hear it, I just discovered this, I too am trying restore a 1000 and the battery is a major road block. I order 2 "new" ones that might be crappy, I'll probably give this concept a go... If I can find parts
I thought about this some time after releasing the video. It's a little overkill with two charging controllers but it does work just fine as it is. I would probably remove it the next time i need to fix a battery
Hey, man, at around 1:39, you show the battery management board. I currently don't have a soldering kit at the moment but i just want to conserve the board and throw away the old battery. Do you think it would be okay to cut off the two latches, for example, with some scissors? This wouldn't damage the board, right? Thanks for reading my message!
This is a great video! A couple of questions: 1) do you have the dimensions of the battery cell you're using? The final fitment looks great 2) are there any alternatives to glueing the enclosure at the end? Like, maybe custom 3d printing an enclosure that can be screwed together or something? 3) what's your opinion on aftermarket clone batteries? Have you tried comparing the battery life of those to this one? Thanks in advance!
Hi Frank 1. Dimensions are 7.5mm x 30mm x 48mm 2. I don't think 3d printing is an option because the case plastic is really really thin (plus there are these tiny clips on the sides). But if you don't have the original case then just buy an aftermarket battery and replace the battery inside. I have only seen glued batteries. I guess you could use double sided tape, but the enclosure would probably not fully close 3. See point 2. I have very bad experience with aftermarket batteries but I'm sure good ones exist
I tried soldering the battery to the PCB. Current flows (tried with the multimeter) but it's like the battery is not recognised by the PSP, resulting in the console not powering up. Any idea why this happens?
afaik, as long as it fits in the battery shell should work fine, i saw some guy even modded it to have 10k mAh this guy modded it to 10k mAh, but yeah it's too damn big, idk 4k mah cell size is, but if its big make sure you make a 3d printed case for it ua-cam.com/video/qGofx5jDiZA/v-deo.html
Yes you can do that. But you need to properly identify the original battery pack before disassembling and fitting a new one. And it goes without saying that there is an immediate danger if puncturing the battery pack while working on it, so take caution
I followed the guide, the battery charged up to 15% and then all of a sudden it dropped to 0% and it always stays like that, if I remove the power supply it stays on for a few seconds and gives the low battery signal and turns off. The battery has a voltage of 4v How do I solve it?
@@electronicrescue The battery is a 1200 mAh Li-Po 603450 The battery is charged, I tried the same cell in a non-original battery pack and it works there.

This is the cleanest and the right way to mods the battery.. Not tearing the psp itself for fitting the battery very clever and pro works. 👍

the new battery is 100mah lesser than the original so 5-6 hours would be accurate

Didn't u have to remove the battery charger controller before connecting in to the PSP battery controller?

thats what i did until I learn to solder

Tried using another PSP battery? To eliminate a problem with the console itself. Also check your work twice 😊
Hello, i lf i wanted to add a 4000mah cell would it work? I mean like correctly charge to 100% and display correct percentage on battery information?
afaik, as long as it fits in the battery shell should work fine, i saw some guy even modded it to have 10k mAh
this guy modded it to 10k mAh, but yeah it's too damn big, idk 4k mah cell size is, but if its big make sure you make a 3d printed case for it

THANK YOU!
You're welcome 😊
How's the battery holding up?
Still going strong. Haven't noticed a drop in charge so far👍
cool stuffs, im wonder if you can do this on a laptop that has flat battery of some sort
Yes you can do that. But you need to properly identify the original battery pack before disassembling and fitting a new one. And it goes without saying that there is an immediate danger if puncturing the battery pack while working on it, so take caution
Is replacing the battery much cheaper? Its still made in china anyway
thankyou
You're welcome!

How do I solve it?
Sounds like a dead battery pack. What is the specs on the pattery pack?

@@zut6174 Maybe try another battery?
@@maskednil The battery is good, the problem was the PCB, I solved it by replacing it with another one.
@@zut6174AH! I see! May I know if you were using the same green PCB like in the video, or the yellow kind?
ill buy¡¡
