1350mAh CTR-003 Battery for Nintendo 3DS 2DS Game Console

I bought this to replace the original battery in my Nintendo 2DS, which had started to swell slightly and rarely lasted more than an hour of play. If your battery is swollen, I'd recommend replacing it sooner rather than later. Installation: Very straightforward. The back plate is held on by only two screws, and the included screwdriver worked fine, so I didn't need any of my own tools. The battery fit snugly and I didn't have to disconnect any cables. Anyone comfortable removing a couple of screws should be able to do this in a few minutes. What's in the box: Along with the battery and screwdriver, mine came with a USB-A to 2DS charging cable. It wasn't mentioned in the listing I saw, so it was a nice bonus. Performance so far: I've only charged it to full once, so I haven't timed a complete charge yet. Playing Pokemon Ultra Sun, it is already lasting noticeably longer than my old battery was. Charging behaved normally, and I haven't seen any heat, swelling, or strange battery-meter behavior. I'll update this review if anything changes with longer use. Value: The price was competitive, and the included tool and cable make it a complete kit. Bottom line: If your 2DS or 3DS battery is worn out or swelling, this is an easy, affordable fix that has worked well for me so far.

I purchased this battery (and an 8BitDo USB Wireless Adapter 2) so that I could use my ol’ Wii U Pro Controller with my Switch. It’s nice to hold a full sized Pro Controller instead of the tiny Joy-Cons in my big mitts. The comfort alone makes the purchase(s) worth every penny!

La batería sirve en cuanto a tamaño y compatibilidad con la nintendo 3ds clásica. Cumple el propósito, la batería original que traía mi consola de fabrica se hinchó con los años. Con esta batería pude darle una segunda vida a mi consola.

Thoughtful seller Great product Excellent packaging

I'm a big softie for my old 3DS – it's somewhere around 12 years old at this point. I noticed a while back that the back plate was bulging, and my system clock kept resetting to 1/1/2011. I did a bit of research, and turns out my original battery was out of date. Extremely out of date. Explosion risk out of date. Ordered this as soon as I could, and its been a life saver. Works just as well as the Nintendo battery did, if not better. It comes with the screwdrivers to do the repair yourself, and the process is quite straightforward: remove the old, worryingly bloated battery and the new one slips right into place. Console fits back together like new. Holds its charge amazingly – mine gets somewhere around 6-8 hours of game time off a full charge, and it's been around a year after the repair. I'd say if you have an original 3DS lying somewhere, and you haven't been giving it the love it deserves, freshen it up with this new battery.
