Nintendo DS Lite Batteries and Chargers
Consoles and Gadgets offer high quality of Nintendo DS Lite Batteries and
Chargers!
The Nintendo DS Lite contains a rechargeable lithium-ion battery with a capacity
of 850 mah. On a full four-hour charge, Nintendo claims the battery lasts a
maximum of 10 hours under ideal conditions. Battery life is affected by multiple
factors including speaker volume, use of one or both screens, back lighting, and
use of wireless connectivity. The biggest effect on battery life is caused by
using the backlight, which can be turned off in the main menu screen, or in
selected games (such as Super Mario 64 DS).
The battery is user-replaceable using a head screwdriver. After about 500
charges the battery life starts dropping.
To sustain battery life in the midst of a game, users can close the Nintendo DS
system, putting the DS in 'sleep' mode that also pauses the game that is being
played; however, closing the system while playing a Game Boy Advance game will
not put the Nintendo DS into sleep mode; the game will continue to run normally,
including the back light. Certain DS games (such as Animal Crossing: Wild World)
also will not pause but the backlight, screens, and speakers will turn off.
