I only see two pins on most 3rd party rechargeable Li-Ion batteries. What is the pinout for the factory supplied battery? I would like to replace the battery with a similar 3.7v Li-Ion battery from somewhere like adafruit.
I found an answer to my first question. My follow up question is if you can use a battery with only two charging pins and not the temp sensor pins?
There's no reason you can't but without the temp sensor you must be cautions if your battery does over heat because it can lead to damages on the touchscreen as well.
Why does Nintendo mention a size #0 screwdriver while iFixit says #00?
proof: http://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/...
"•Use a crosshead style, size #0 screwdriver to avoid damage to the screw or threads"
"2.Loosen the battery cover screws with a crosshead style, size #0 screwdriver."
/a confused person
The size #00 is just a little smaller than the #0. When we wrote these guides, we used whatever worked for us. Either should work, but generally you should use the largest that will work to avoid stripping the screw.
Kim Arre -
can't you just use any lithium battery like this?? It shouldn't have to be a special exclusive device only battery.
Great idea! Maybe you can try it out and let us know if it works or not!
