Gaming GBA Micro Battery

[johndpoe]

Hi there!

Does anyone know where to source a good battery for a GBA micro, preferably in the UK? any good brand out there?

A forum member pointed me to Cameron Sino batteries, which are not particularly easy to come by. Bought one in AliExpress, and it turned out to be the last one the seller had, and it was defective so I ended up with a refund. Bought another one in Amazon, and it turned to be the wrong product advertised as a GBA micro battery...

Thanks a lot!

Tell the world if you find a consistent source of non-shit handheld batteries. All the short-term convenience of USB-rechargeable 3.7V Lithium batteries is cancelled by the long-term hassle of finding a good replacement when they die. In the end the original GBAs with their old fashioned, available-anywhere AA batteries will be laughing at the dead GBA SPs and micros.....

I have a hard time finding good LiPo batteries for this handheld and many others. One time I bought a new 3rd party GBA SP battery from an online store and it was completely dead. When I returned it, the replacement they sent me was an original Nintendo GBA SP battery! On another occasion, I tried to find a new battery for my PSP-2000 on eBay. I got two batteries from two different okay-seeming Chinese sellers. Both were bad, neither would respond to emails.
