Charge and Play:

FEATURES:

  • Supports USB C to C, and USB C to A.
  • Low heat generation.
  • Compatible with all common IPS shells on the market. OEM shells will need to be trimmed to accommodate the battery.
  • A fully modded console with an IPS screen, amplifier, and flash cart will yield around 9.5-10 hours battery life.
  • Comes with a 1500mAh battery.
  • Charges in just over 5 hours. This module was intentionally made to charge slower than others to reduce heat and keep it at a minimum. Yellow LED lights up when charging. The GREEN LED lights up when charging is complete. 
  • Uses a negative polarity 10x30x48mm battery with a JST-ZH connector.
  • USB-C battery covers and charging cables sold separately.
  • For non-IPS and original shells battery housing modification is required. USB-C battery cover hole will need to be cut out.
  • For IPS ready shells, battery housing modification is not required. USB-C Battery cover hole will need to be cut.
  • V2 boards are now compatible with all USB-C battery covers.
  • If you have a V1 board, RetroSix shells and USB-C battery covers are a perfect match for this module. If you are planning to use either a FunnyPlaying or Hispeedido shell/ USB-C battery cover you will need to trim a tab on the upper left side of the USB-C battery over. 

INCLUDED:

  • 1x USB-C Module PCB
  • 1x Battery

PAIRS WELL WITH:

Great little battery

This is probably the easiest rechargeable battery to set up. Simply connect the battery to the board and insert it into your Game Boy Advance, simple as that. So far the battery seems to have a long life, I've only charged it once when I first bought it and it has lasted a long time with some casual gaming. It is much better and far more convenient than constantly swapping out AA batteries.

Best Deal and Mod for Battery Needs

Ultimately, this is currently the most affordable of the drop-in and play rechargeable battery mods for the Game Boy Advance. This is the 2nd one of these I have purchased, and if you are playing on system with any upgrade mods such as an IPS or TFT LCD screen, TV out, or color LEDs, these will both extend your play time and reduce the frequency of the battery power bottoming out, shutting off your system mid-play (which was happening to me on occasion in a console that includes a TFT LCD and a pair of shoulder button LEDs). Dropped this in, booted it up, and enjoyed uninterrupted play with continuous power draw from the battery mod. Great stuff.

if you have an IPS screen and audio mod, this is the best upgrade you can do. super hassle free install and lasts a lot longer than the double A batteries for sure!
