Triple Function Power Pack - where can I get it...

Besides Divineo. On the site I was going to order it said it's sent from Canada (I live in Quebec), and yet it went from 12$ to 30$ with all the shipping and such.

ModMyDS.com was the sponsor for DSDatabase, even though its a little more pricy than $12, it's one of the better deals around.

I couldn't find the product on that site

Perhaps I wasn't looking throughly enough.

Is that on the site ?

O my bad, I thought you were talking about something else.

A lot cheaper as well. Half of what the other place was charging. Thanks for the link

Wow, at that price it seems way too good to be true. 3000 mAh, plus 1600 mAh DS battery plus 4 2100 mAh nimh batteries... that's like enough battery life to last an entire vacation!

Are there reviews of this anywhere? I'd gladly pay whatever price if it actually works like it should, not just some crappy battery that wrecks your system or something.

Shame it's only for the DS Lite or I'd consider it myself. I'm lucky if I get 5 hours out of this Phat, though that is with the Supercard inserted all the time, which is probably the culprit.

Get a slot 1 card, battery *seems* last longer, for me anyway. I've never done a proper running time test, I always get half-way through and then decide I want to play on it instead

First it's obviously more miniaturized, which is good, but a major factor is probably that microSD uses less power than the older storage mediums.

Nah, if I got a slot-1 device I'd need to get the EZ-V 3in1 pack for the functions that slot-2 provides, as I use those often, so that would probably drain the battery nearly as quickly.

It would brought up at GBAdev once that perhaps the Supercard's RAM is always on whenever the DS is on, which would explain the battery life, as the RAM uses up a large amount of power. Regardless, I play stuff with the slot-1 card ejected when I can, as that does save battery power.

Any reviews of this battery up yet?

Altor · May 30, 2007, 10:25:51 PM

lol, I almost posted just now "$20 for the first guy to post a review" then realized... oh yeah, that's more than it would cost to buy it and have it shipped to me...

So anyone got a review yet? This thing's really got my interest.
