I watched both of his videos already. When I said I want this controller to last a while, I mean literal decades. I know iFixit will have replacement parts, but there’s still going to be a point where even they will stop carrying them.
Yeah, I’m gonna be on the look out for people doing this. Gamers Nexus showed the battery voltage as 3.85V. I was worried at the time that this voltage isn’t too common, but it seems that fear is unfounded. Never had a PSP, so that’s cool to know.
my 2 cents but 3.85 is super reasonable for lithium batteries, which range from 4.2 to 3.6 depending on charge. DIYing some other battery in should be trivial voltage-wise

I mean at that point you would probably solder a phone battery into it or something like we did with the PSP when replacement batteries got terrible.
