PSP Battery - Fake or original

Genuine Sony PSP-110 1800mAh battery when fully charged is reported at 6h 28m life by the PSP.
Three supposed PSP-360 3600mAh batteries from HK when fully charged all report 5h 20m life, which equates to 1485mAh.
Two supposed Sony Stamina PSP-280 2200mAh from HK when fully charged report 5h 4m & 5h 23m equating to 1410mAh & 1498mAh.
Some advertised as Lithium-Polymer when they are in fact Lithium-Ion.


Item might be worded as "Official Sony PSP... battery", which is not the same as "Sony PSP... official battery" (or "... Sony battery").


On the plus side, the batteries are cheap and they do work.
You can typically get 3 of these batteries (15hrs life) for the price of a real Sony Stamina PSP-280 2200mAh battery (8hrs life).
Just don't expect capacity/life of any of them to match that stated.

Jam TEC update - 08/12/23

Ok every one as you see it a Energizer, and it's a battery charger. But a different kind of a Charger. This is the Energizer Rechargeable Solar Charger. A portable solar-powered AA and AAA battery charger that transfers sunlight to power, was a little light on the actual details.


• will feature a USB-out port to power other devices (since some cell phones, cameras, and GPS units have USB plugs, like most iPods for example);
• can be charged from an AC wall outlet in addition to the sun;
• and is weatherproof to withstand the elements.


Energizer says the Rechargeable Solar Charger will be available this summer and should carry a suggest retail price of $49.99--a price that includes two Energizer Rechargeable batteries. See the device open with solar cells exposed after the jump.

External LCD Poster
Debug and read system problems with an new external look!

The new LCD Poster now posts critical POST information in an ever friendly and flexible external display. When system malfunction occurs, the LCD Poster automatically detects device failure and translates the errors on the LCD during POST. Unlike other competing 2 digit displays, users won´t need to read "gibberish" to find out what´s wrong.

and so many more. What else can u expect from a main board. but this cost some bucks in your bank. So far this main board is priced above $400.00 but soon it'll come down a bit.
