Retromodding is a 1700 may battery if you were on helders site they got those specs wrong. Also The Clean juice charges way too fast for a Lithium ion battery. Meaing it's going to lose capacity faster, whereas retromodding's battery runs a constant charge rate lower then Helders. The longevity to me means more. If you check out Mahko's video on both of these batteries he goes in depth on capacity discharge rates, recharge times the types of batteries they are and capacity. As well as of key notes, like these are both non replaceable batteries because of the adhesive holding down the thin pcbs. They will break off if you attempt to remove the cell from the board. Heat and a pry tool not really the safest method. And retromodding's battery although not have a jis connecter is not sealed with epoxy but instead liquid rubber coated insulation and can be peeled off. They also have where the battery lead are wired onto the board, a jis soldering point so you can actually solder a jis female on it if you decide to. Making both of them for lack of better terms equally "replacable" but not really replacable.

I agree with just having options for a battery pack is nice, even if both have some cons, or pros. What I want to see is more widely available GBA shell color options from manufacturers. For some reason, solid teal isn't an available option from most sellers, with Retrosix getting that first start with their prestige shells. As far as I know, I looked pretty much everywhere and turned out empty prior to the prestige shells. FunnyPlaying is coming up with their own shells now, and absolutely love them, just their color variety at the moment only ranges on the transparent side. I know they'll be releasing some solid color options and hope they can get every single color available in the spectrum of colors.

While I do basically agree..... different strokes for different folks ya know? Some people may not want to bother with keeping track of a battery charger and the rechargeable batteries. I had them for a while, when I was a teen and got my first cheap CD player. It ate up batteries like crazy. I remember riding to school with the twisted metal 2 PS1 CD in my CD player getting amped up to rob zombie only to be deflated when we finally got to school. At any rate, yeah... I suppose most people would be better off. For about the same cost as one of these mods, you could buy a good eneloop charger setup with a panasonic charger, 12AA, 4AAA, and some C and D adapters. Keep in mind that you can't just compare a battery mAh to mAh. Battery chemistry and how it's being used (namely how hot it gets, and how high the power draw is) can make huge differences in how long a battery lasts even between two different batteries of equal mAh ratings but different battery chemistries

Are there any battery mods for the pocket?
@MachoNachoProductions4 жыл бұрын
Great question! As far as I know, there isn't a battery mod kit for the Pocket. There are some custom mods that can be done but they require off the shelf components and significant mods to the shell. I am hoping that we will get a mod for the Pocket in the near future! Cheers!

So, I am considering making a GBA with ISP V2 and using a Type C rechargeable battery setup. I will probably drop a new speaker in, but not use an amp package. There are two things I would like to do as well, but haven't decided on doing yet. Installing Red LED lights for the sides with a transparent red button set, in a black case, or transparent black case with red button pads, and only the shoulder buttons lighting up. But if I did the red lights, I would want to possibly replace the regular charge indicator light to be red at full battery, and a blue when low battery, and I don't even know if that is possible?

Sounds like a sweet build! I think it should be possible. I’m not too familiar with changing the battery led indicator, but I think it consists of 2 surface mounted leds, one green and one red. You would have to swap both. Not sure what size smd led you would need though. I hope that helps a little. Best of luck on the build! Cheers!
