Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Special TOOL version of our MAX Power PSP Battery designed for use in original PSPs (not the new slimline model).

Product Description

The easy way to play home brew games and applications on your unmodified PSP.

Our special TOOL version of the PSP rechargeable battery works in exactly the same way as a standard Sony PSP battery, but has the ability to put your PSP into Service Mode. This is a facility made available exclusivey to programmers and developers, allowing them to run software from a memory stick instead of the UMD - a vital means of testing the game you're developing on the PSP without having to get Sony to cut a disc for you.

With our bright red TOOL battery, you can access this Service Mode on your own, non-developers' PSP! Using the TOOL battery, you can run PSP software from your memory stick, by putting your PSP into Service Mode. It's easy!

  • Same power performance as the standard PSP battery.
  • Slimline profile fits inside your PSP's battery compartment.
  • TOOL functionality is hard-coded into the battery.
  • Lets you play home brew games without modding your PSP.

The other reviewers are correct, additional software is needed to use this item to the full. I have uploaded an additional product image which is of the official Datel instructions. As you can see, they state that additional software is required but give no hints as to where to find it.
Please feel free to contact me if you need any help finding the software to make your memory stick into a 'magic' memory stick to use with this item.

Ok this is to help all the people having problems. This battery works with the fat and slim psp, to get the battery to work you will need a magic mem stick. A magic mem stick is a pro duo memory stick which has been formatted in a special way and has files necessary to boot in service mode. To make a magic mem stick you will need a real pro duo magic gate mem stick with 512mb-4gb space, over 4gb does not work and under 512mb may be too small. To confirm your stick is real on psp menu highlight mem stick press triangle and go to info if it says magic gate supported it is real, if it says unknown or similar it is fake, do not use a fake stick. Once established it is real you should google psp pandora memory stick or 3.71m33 memory stick and you should find instructions on how to make it. This combination will put custom firmware on any psp regardless of firmware.

I can now use my PSP with emulators and PSX games!
I bought this to hack my PSP so that I could play EBOOT Emulators such as SNES9x and play my old PS1 games on my PSP. Be Sure to know what you are doing when you hack your PSP!

Does exactly what you want, if you know how.
This product works great, it does exactly as it's advertised to, opens up the PSP 1000 or 2000 into the PSP Service Menu. Read more

If you know what to use it for, its the best you can find. 5 stars. I got a black one which looks a lot cooler than the red picture as well.

does exactly as it should
as per the title really. Amazon sent the wrong item at first, ( the one for the slim ) but they quickly sent the replacement. You dont need the slim version as this works for both. Read more

DOESNT WORK WITH SLIM & LITE!
Be aware that this battery does not fit into the PSP slim and lite or the 3000 model. So do not get this if you have a slim and lite PSP!
