4.0 out of 5 stars It's a higher-capacity battery...what more do you want from it? :), February 6, 2007

Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

(I'm skipping over the actual 'How long does it last?' stuff since I just got this and my use isn't typical anyway :P...it does last at least 2x longer than the original though)


This is just a replacement battery (Pelican PL-1103 Extended Life Battery Pack) that is 1000mAh instead of the stock 600mAh AGS-003 battery that comes with the GBA SP(2).

It's attached to a silver 'grip' cover that adds about an extra quarter of an inch to the entire bottom of the SP since the battery is thicker than the stock one, and it acts as a new battery cover (which you remove/replace with the included mini screwdriver).



Just a warning, if you use Pelican's 'Leather Glove' for the SP, it will not fit over the GBA SP if you use this battery, due to the added thickness the battery+grip/cover adds.

...if you're willing to 'break' your new battery, you -can- however twist the grip gently back and forth until the casing cracks and you're able to pry the battery away from the rest of the cover (minus the 'back' side of the plastic casing...be careful not to actually damage the guts of the battery :P)...you can then place it in the GBA SP, and the Leather Glove will fit perfectly while also holding the battery in tight.

5.0 out of 5 stars definitely extends battery life, December 2, 2008

I've used this battery for well over a year now. There's no question that it lasts significantly longer than the stock battery - probably twice as long or so. Considering that I picked this up for about $7 including shipping, I consider it one of the best purchases I've made in the past couple of years. It does make the GBA noticeably heavier, but I consider the tradeoff highly worth it.

Although the questions refer to a game, what I purchased was a replacement battery which works just fine.
