Because my numbers with original battery are so low (1h, even for an old battery it's very few) and with a new one 1000 mAh (from DSLITE) it's just 2h ... Maybe my machine have a problem ...

I got a new battery and now it will stay on for about 5.5 hours under continous use,e.g. playing movies. FWIW, I got the battery on ebay. Its a 850 mah cell. My understanding is that the original battery is 750 mah. There are quite a few replacements that are 750...and some are 850 mah - you have to look for them. My battery came with a cheap (but effective) screwdriver that mates with the 'star' shaped screw heads that hold the case together. (Why Sony used this oddball screw I'll never know). I suggest you look for that ebay seller because you will never be able to remove the screws unless you have that special driver. Good luck

totololo Registered User Join Date: Jul 2006 Posts: 360	Hahahaha ! So i simply didn't use Batterytime properly before. With my almost new DSlite battery adapted to the UX, i get about 2,20 hours backlight ON at maximum level and 4,42 hours backlight ON but at minimum level.

eva-01 ALLS RIGHT WITH THE WORLD Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: England Posts: 191	it might be a good idea to try out battery test aswell, there is a huge set of results from loads of people using their ux heres the link http://www.1src.com/forums/showthread.php?t=85136 so you can easily test and compare your results also there is no problem with backlight level as the program tests the unit at 50% automatically so you can directly compare your th55 battary, the old ux battery and the gameboy battery __________________ GOD'S IN HIS HEAVEN.
