Sony says goodnight to PSP Extended Life Battery Kit

Well, this sucks. According to SCEA's Al de Leon, the extended battery life kit for PSP is discontinued. The product nearly doubled the battery life on PSP-2000 systems, but came at a slight aesthetic price: a larger battery cover would be installed, creating a bulge in the system. However, with battery life as impressive as 12 hours or more, we were absolutely satisfied with the peripheral.

"Yes, we are discontinuing this product as we look for other opportunities to service the consumer," notes de Leon. Hopefully, we'll see something else that can augment the PSP's battery life.

PSP Extended Life Battery Kit -- capable of boosting the PSP's play time by up to 80% -- while UMDs continue to be the preferred method of distribution for the system's games and video content (thereby also heavily contributing to the device's juice-drain)? Worse still for Sony, why are we not surprised?

new psp had a 1200mah cap, so a 2200mah cap, is much better and longer time by about 30% more so 1200mah has only about 6.5 hours on it so a 2200mah has about 12.5 hours that is almost 2 times longer

the sony extened life battery is exactly what it says and is is true to its time i have had my psp fr a few months and i can notice the life dfference form the standered battery
