Watch This Before You Buy A PSP Battery In 2024

[@TotalKommando]

Post Notes: - The 2200 will work on 2K/3K PSPs but you will either need to get an extended battery cover or use a MH3000 Shell - All 6 of my Cameron Sino batteries were purchased off Amazon US from the same seller - OSTENT out of the box will have an extremely tight fit, just make sure its lined up, and give it a good hard press to pop them in - 20:47 is where you will find the answer to something no one thought to ask, and it's massive discovery that deserves a bit more research! - I didn't talk about pricing as most of these hover around the same price - BMS Images will be edited & uploaded once I get some sleep. - According to one other person's 1800 Cameron Sino, the "Good" black PCB one might be the one advertised for the phat models only - End Screen Fail The Promised Records: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vemXNVact5ftftxo81HfBz3q3H0IFF04TG89z6DVXFs/edit?usp=sharing Discord: discordapp.com/invite/5bsGzq7

Just what I wanted to ask, well I won't be able to have the 2200mha in my psp 3k, I like to keep it like this without putting a case on it:

[@Lucas-mt1cb]

It's actually the opposite. The Cameronsino batteries with the black pcb are the ones made for PSP 2000 and 3000, you can see that by looking at the codes on the stickers. CS-SP112XL / PSP-S110 are the batteries made for PSP 2000 and 3000 CS-SP110SL / PSP-110 are the batteries made for PSP 1000

@@imhxrv I never let my battery get depleted to 0 percent, I always charge at 40 percent and if I don't use the PSP for an extended period I always check up on it from time to time (Every 2-3 Weeks) to see if it's still working as intended and then give it a charge if needed. Also I never play with the system while it's connected to a charger if I want to do that I just remove the battery and then play it with the AC plugged in. My PSP 3000 is very old, the outer shell has taken a beating but the machine is still fully functional UMD drive, LCD, Analog Nub and all the buttons still A-okay.

I would get one for your self as well, and then you can play local multiplayer games using adhoc. Tons of fun specially with racing games that the psp is plenty of. Never gets old Would recommend saving the BMS on that original battery as well as the cover, incase you get into modding and want to install a high capacity battery or even recover your psp

[@TotalKommando]

I plan to have a disassembly + reassembly series of videos but I need to get through the bulk of Project Smokey series of mods first xd Its not hard to remove, its just annoying, there should be plenty of videos but i got non right now for that : |

[@DarkBowser64]

Great video! It took me until just now to say "yeah I'm interested, I'll watch it" instead of passing it over; that does tend to happen where you're just not quite interested in a specific video you're seeing quite yet (even if the subject matter does generally interest you) and then you're in the mood later. I love the extremely comprehensive, almost obsessive videos that get way into the nitty-gritty details of everything; I'm all for that stuff. Love having this big database of battery information here. I definitely will want to look into the PSP-1000 size battery + an expanded battery cover fitting the 3000. Also good to see those external PSP battery chargers -- it absolutely sucks to use the original charger on my PSP because it doesn't work half the time (bad connector on the charger itself) and nothing uses the mini-USB on top of the PSP anymore. Charging with USB Mode is slow, but at the same time I don't want to use the OEM AC adapter because A: mine is bad, and B: we've really moved on from proprietary charging at this point as a society. It appears since I bought my PSP-3000 new in box really late, like in 2012-2014 or so, I have the exact same TA-095v2 as you (but Piano Black), and I've never really been disappointed in the battery life of mine with the stock battery. The relative newness of my battery and it being the most power-efficient PSP-3000 model is probably why. Plus if I'm not going to use it for a while, I try to charge to a bit over 80% before storing it outside of the console, which is usually what's recommended for storage and it doesn't tend to be dead when I next intend to use my PSP.

[@TotalKommando]

It's cool to know that the new screens are actually more power efficient, despite the common misconception in the community. Makes the choice of switching over a no-brainer.

I agree, the GO is probably as good as its ever going to get, and the screen form factor makes it harder to develop a custom screen for. One day man, we can just hope to get an OLED for n a slim, that will be something

[@IDrinkLava]

What fascinating and in-depth research. Battery life is probably one of the most important specs on a handheld device, yet people take it for granted to the point that superstitions about WiFi/333mHz/IPS causing significant battery drain become widespread. If you were to ever do a follow-up video, I'd appreciate some info on 0% to 100% charge time as well. Here are some of my relevant findings from my own handheld battery tests: -The God of War games on PSP are the most demanding on the battery life. On my last PSP Go, I got 3:30 in the Nyan cat test (222mHz) on the 3rd brightness setting, but only 2:54 idle on the 1st screen of Chains of Olympus (222mHz). -PS1 eboots and homebrew emulators are a bit more battery efficient. I got between 9 and 19 extra minutes of battery on my last PSP Go compared to the Nyan cat test (222mHz). I also somehow got 3 extra minutes in NesterJ by overclocking to 333mHz as opposed to leaving it at the underclocked 200mHz. -I've owned 3 PSP Gos with OEM batteries at different points. Two of them got 2:57 in the Nyan cat test (222mHz) on the 4th brightness setting, but one got 3:30. I'm not sure if this was because its battery was in better condition, or if it was because of a mobo revision. I didn't think to use PSPIdent, as I only owned that one very briefly before I had to get a refund. -The PS Vita 2000 with Adrenaline seems to be around as efficient as the average PSP 3000 with the Ostent 2200mAh battery. Mine got 7:48 in the Nyan cat test (222mHz) and 7:26 sitting idle on the first screen of God of War: Chains of Olympus (333mHz). That's assuming 100% brightness on the Vita 2000 is equivalent to max brightness on the PSP 3000, though.

[@TotalKommando]

I got some charge time numbers in the spreadsheet that you can checkout, didnt do many but typically should take 2.5-3 hours to charge most batteries. The PSV2K Adrenaline one is interesting, you can watch my IPS Video, inside I do a brightness comparison between all the PSV/PSP displays available for all models.

[@IPlayToBag]

I noticed when you open the battery packs, that there is a lot of unused space with the padding in them that fills the void. If you took a good battery board and two of the best cells and connected them in parrel with each other, you could effectively create a bigger battery then the original Sony batteries and fit it within the battery casing. I'll try this out based on what you showed us here and post the results when I get it done.

[@TotalKommando]

Yea it's definitely possible but most of those padded ones are padded because they are running low capacity cells, one idea i had for a while for easy battery sourcing & a somewhat reversable mod is to get multiple good quality slim batteries and run them in parallel in the battery compartment & umd area with small holes for wires running through the walls

I also found out that a PSP 1000 battery can actually work for a 2000 and 3000 model. So, I was wondering before I buy the OSTENT phat 1000 battery and place it in my 3000 model. Where would buy a good battery cover or what should I do to cover the battery? Since it is clearly bulkier than the cover can handle.

If the photos are correct on this one, then this is one listing, they are hard to find when you search for them directly: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DDoDuB9 s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DeElux5 amzn.to/3XnbcJZ I would use the photos as reference and check in your local market

Holy Crap you are doing amazing work here. I got a reasonably good battery off Amazon that seemed to have good reviews about a year ago, however it is now out of stock and not sold anywhere I can find anymore. The one thing I wish is someone would clone the PCB of the OG batteries as the other issue that's annoying when tinkering with the PSP is you cannot charge any of the replacement batteries over USB.

[@TotalKommando]

Im pretty sure you can charge third party using the mini usb, do you have the feature enabled? Perhaps its time for a solderless type-c port: kzbin.info/www/bejne/joe3Y4V-rqdketE

@@TotalKommando With the 3rd party batteries, they all "look" like they are charging, but if you go a while you can see the battery never increases in charge. If there is one that does work normally with it that would be a nice perk of the find. Though I agree swapping the Mini USB for Type-C would be a nice upgrade.

You are royalty among peasants, absolutely excellent video. Thank you for your effort!

[@TrackSol]

Thanks for the massive undertaking. Can the Ostent batteries be converted to Pandora or Auto-boot batteries?

[@TotalKommando]

Nope

[@delita2663]

Loved the video, thanks for compiling that crazy amount of data. I wonder what the effective difference between battery boards is, if one is more efficient or accurate over the others

[@TotalKommando]

Thats exactly what I would be doing in my custom battery modding video, figure out what are the best boards to use.

Hey, I have a question I hope you can respond to before the seller decides to ship! I was just sent a messaged about a psp I purchased saying “ All game software sold in our store are in Japanese. They are region code NTSC-J. If your game console does not support the Japanese version, our game software will not work. Please be sure to check. “ Does that mean I won’t be able to play any games made here in the US or is there a way I can remove that region code?

[@545zer0]

I don’t know if this makes a difference but it’s a white psp 1000

[@TotalKommando]

It won't matter if you are modding your psp. You can play any region psp game or movie. Just make sure you install ARK-4, i got a late guide coming soon hopefully

[@545zer0]

@@TotalKommando Thanks for responding but I don’t plan on modding it, just having it for personal use. I read that you can play any game just may have issue with the movies but I will be looking out for the guide.

@@545zer0 yea it will be mostly with umd movies where region problems begin, jpn on us, and us on jpn games will work fine without any mods
