LDK with quality BL 5c batteries (5-6 hours gameplay!)
« on: June 22, 2019, 04:26:57 am »
Just wanted to inform you better to stick with good quality 1200mAh(maximum realistic capacity for this type) BL 5c

I tested the Patona BL 5c here in Europe. And i get 5-6 hours gameplay!

So get rid of the chinese stock fake Nokias.

The fake ones probably last half (a bit more) than that. I dunno I don't exactly timed them.

I suppose that depends on how intense the emu/games you play too.

Still the original nokia battery could cost $10 each, while the fake ones can get as cheap as $1-$2

I think I bought 2 fake ones. I can't tell the difference but they're surely cheap.

I'm always sceptical of these third party batteries.  Partially because I'm worried that they don't include protection circuitry, and partially because they often advertise capacities that can't even fit into a bl-5c so you don't really know what you're getting

Original Nokias are 1020mAh, high quality Patona clones are 1200mAh.

They make a hugh difference to the poor quality ones from China. And they even have higher capacity then the originals.

I can play 5-6 hours with Patona(more than twice as much)! And they are made with European security standards. I'm not sure with the Chinese ;)

Paid around 8$ each here in Germany. For me it's worth it. Better buying one time quality than every few month cheap Chinese...

I'm sure there are other quality clones with 1200 -1300 mAh available outside of Europe.

battery arrived today, definitely lasting longer than the one that came with my device, but it?s a little thicker, so the battery cover doesn?t fit as good as before

Bought pack of 2 from Amazon for just under 13 GBP, should be here tomorrow.

@Zockeromi, Does the battery cover still fit ok?
Lots of Handhelds but my favourite is still my GCW Zero and also RG-350, But the RG-300 is 2nd Best.

How did you test this and what battery life were you getting with the stock battery?

Stock batteries are about 2 1/2 hours. I thing they are around 500-700mAh (not the labeled 1020mAh)

The Patona are 1200mAh. They will last minimum 5 hours. Twice as much or even more...

Big +: They have European safety standards and all the quality labels.

They are slitly thicker... but they fit... can close the battery compartment without problems.

Got mine as double package from Ama her in Germany for 14-15 Euro, too.

Mine have rolled up, and now are charging up, mine fit okay but do seem a little tighter then the stock battery but cover shuts as normal:)

I bought one of the Patona 1200maH batteries and tested it in my LDK. I set the overclock to 648MHz, brightness to maximum and left the Zelda A Link to the Past intro running until the system powered off
With the original battery it lasted 3 hours
With the Patona battery it lasted 4 hours 15 mins

Obviously with the brightness lower you should get longer battery out of it, but this shows about 40% extra runtime.

Thank you for testing!

So 5 1/2 hours with brightness 65%(higher is to bright for me personally) should be possible! That was my
experience.

These fake chinese are not 1020mAh... likely 600-700 mAh...

I agree. I think with 50% brightness you'd probably get another hour or if it

30%+ if i calculate right

So the stock batteries are more likely around 800mAh.

I read in a youtube post some weeks ago that all these chinese fake batteries(same with Bittboy) are 20-30% less mAh than in their specs.

Patonas really boosts the LDK. Another tiny 5c reserve battery in your bag and you get 10 hours gameplay! More than enough...
