PS Vita SLIM 2000 Battery mod 5200 mAh tutorial

I have been using the PS Vita for a long time and this is my favorite portable console. However, the standard battery capacity is not always enough for me, especially on long trips.
I don't like using the Power Bank, so I decided to increase the battery myself. And in this video you will see how it was done and will be able to repeat.

Very Cool mod!

Be very careful combining 2 battery chemistries (LiPo and Sony's Li-Ion).

Be careful when they age as one battery will get high resistance (battery age or use = resistance) and the Vita won't know that. Charging a high resistance battery can cause fire.

*Re-post comment: removed incorrect battery info (couldn't edit because I was pinned). Parallel batteries are the sum of their capacities even if their respective capacity differs. My removed portion stated the combined capacity is double of only the smaller capacity.*

a magnetic charging adapter for vita 1000 would sell like crazy

how long to charge the mod 5000mah? 10-100%

oh man I’m so happy with this mod now my battery life will be better *turns the ps vita on and it catches fire *

[liogashugi]

Man you read my mind i was thinking about doing this a dual batery mod

[axelkusanagi]

I would probably have used one long, slightly thinner battery rather than combine these two. It seems like you had a lot of hassle trying to get them to fit and idk if I want to do all that cutting on the battery itself.

Will this burn 🔥 my house 🏠 down to the ground 🤣

Someone who has made this modification, please tell us about their experience and performance of the new battery or if the ps vita suffered damage in the medium term

At about 15:25 I was a very erect man. I thank you for your contributions.

Maybe one day in the future when I become a computer engineer.

[ExNinku]

do you have any recommendation on how to learn soldering to be able to do this ?
I am confident with my hands but I want to learn this skill.

Also would it be possible to add a mini slim 10000 mah battery ?
Or is there a risk to put high capacity battery in old hardware ?

Thanks for the video. Is there an alternative link? The one in the description doesn’t work (location:germany)

[aihsanasl]

On Reddit I read that these magnetic sockets can burn the motherboards.

Does this work? Is the Vita still alive today?

[yabaiii]

Does this avoid the incorrect battery % issue that affects Vita 1000 battery mods where it assumes all batteries are the stock capacity and so calculates % remaining and runtime from that? That means it can shutdown even if there's actually 50% left in a 4000mAh battery. The only workaround was to reboot to force it to recheck the voltage to get the correct % after all these years lol

que tal ha funcionado esto amigo? se lo quiero hacer a mi nuevo vita, gracias!

[javier]

Buen video, pero ¿es posible instalar una batería delgada de 7, 2 mm o 6 mm?

[freirejullio]

Muito legal esse mod . Qual a duração da bateria ? Dá pra jogar por quantas horas?

[completecap]

Hey question. Last time I took my battery out. It didn’t save my mod. And I’m gonna buy an 3500mah battery for it and I’m scared the mod won’t save again after I take the battery out. Do you know why it happens or do you know how to prevent it?

Any problems so far? Such as a fake percentage being read, or overheating?
