--- Quote from: Arseen on January 27, 2012, 03:03:09 PM ---You just replace it. Difference is that on PSP old models you just open the battery hatch and replace the battery. On PSP GO you'll have to open the whole console to do that. You're not suppose to open PSP GO, thus it's said it's not user changable. --- End quote --- So Sony intended for owners to buy brand new systems every time the damn battery needs replacing? |

Battery should las couple of years, after which you can send the conole to Sony approved serviceplace. |

I have the other PSPs, but I want to get a Go. --- End quote --- I didn't miss your question, I was merely giving a semi-sarcastic answer. Much like Apple with their iProducts, the battery isn't intended to be replaced by the consumer. While you can send it in to get it replaced, the idea is that before the time where the battery even needs replaced, you'll be ready to move on to the newest product. I.e.: "What do I do when the battery won't hold a charge?" "Buy a Vita." |

Let me phrase it this way: What happens if Sony goes out of business tomorrow? No sarcastic answers please. I just want to know if I CAN replace the battery? Can I buy a battery that it will use anywhere, maybe on ebay? I'm sure Sony will abandon support for it sometime soon, but I really want one! |

There are 3rd party replica batteries. And if those run out there are similar batteries (from cordless phone for example) that you can adapt to to use on the PSP GO. And if those run out you can hook hook motorcycle, car or even truck heavy duty battery (quess that would enable year of nonstop no recharge fun) to it with suitable adapter. <- Sarcastic line hidden! And if all other fail you can use the power adapter to play straight out of wall socket. |
