here are some notes and rules :
i will keep updating the list until it reach its definitive form.
i will add PS1 games to the list since the PSP can natively play them.
i added a link to the backloggd website for each genre because i made the same lists there and you can find more information about the games and reviews.
i will add the games that are available in compilations but didnt get a direct port for example sonic the hedgehog didnt get a direct PSP port but its available on sega genesis collection, if you want to know which collection is the game from then check the website and you will find that i leave a note in that specific game that your looking for.
i will also include homebrew ports like half life.
I've also been told multiple times the PSP Go uses the DXR8 Baby Monitor battery. From what I know these still get produced so they aren't difficult to find. You get about 4 hours out of them in the Go.
Total Kommando's testing video essentially makes this post obsolete, for the moment. Since I can't get a new post pinned easily, here's the text to preserve the original post, incase anybody needs it.
ORIGIONAL POST
Hey everyone. This post will be continually updated until Reddit forces us to make a new one. You will be able to find out which batteries we currently recommend, and which ones to avoid. You can also leave your own experiences in the comments to help contribute. Topics currently covered in this post include Batteries for PSP 1000, 2000 and 3000, Chargers for PSP 1000, 2000, 3000, Go and Go Docks, and Products to Avoid.
Batteries for PSP 1000, 2000, 3000
To answer the question upfront, currently, the best replacement batteries for PSP 1000, 2000 and 3000 are Cameron Sino brand. You should expect to get about 5 hours out of them. Just buy them off Amazon. Ostent is also good but gets slightly fewer hours at around 4. You should avoid Insten brand batteries like the plague, most of those being sold are New Old stock meaning they are sealed products that have been sitting on a shelf for about 10 years. EBL is also bad, but nowhere near as much as Insten. Keep in mind using these batteries in a 1000 may result in the battery Door being unable to close with the stock battery cover.
That should answer the question for about 90% of you. If you guys would like more information and would like to learn slight changes we made in the subreddit in the last 2 weeks concerning this issue, you can go ahead and read on.
First off I want to say sorry for not getting this posted two weeks ago, I had all this information already but have been dealing with some IRL stuff. Sorry, I dropped the ball.
So about 2 weeks ago I decided to start seriously addressing this situation given the sheer amount of battery-related posts we get in here on a daily basis. The main change you've probably noticed already is that u/dcs28 added a new tag titled "Battery" that gets applied to any post about batteries. This is so battery posts are all in a nice neat category for people to search through if they need more help. This was a temporary fix until this particular post was made. However, the new tag is likely to stay as it is convenient.
The following information comes from a test that was conducted by u/pspguru a few months ago.
The Test was conducted with three batteries from each brand: EBL, Ostent, and Cameron Sino. These were tested in a PSP 1000 and 3000 using the PSP Battery Timer) plugin. These tests were performed under the following conditions:
Maximum Brightness
Screen dimming off in PSP settings (screen always stays on)
Clockspeed set to 333mhz
WLAN switch off
Here are the results:
EBL
2 Batteries lasted about 3 1/2 hrs give or take 15 minutes
1 Battery was faulty
Ostent
Batteries lasted 4 to 4 1/2 hours
Cameron Sino
Batteries lasted 4 1/2 to 5 hours
As you can see Cameron Sino is the best with Ostent not being too bad either. EBL's quality can be iffy and doesn't last as long, but it isn't outright terrible.
Obviously, this test is not perfect and doesn't cover everything but it still gives us a good idea of the best battery for the PSP 1000, 2000 and 3000. Currently, we don't have info on Batteries for any other models like the Go, Street etc. This post will continually be updated via feedback left here and on posts in the Battery Tag. If you have any info or would like to share your experiences, please leave it in the comments below.
I also asked PSPGuru for his opinion on Insten Batteries. Here is his response:
I know most of you already know Insten batteries are generally terrible, but hopefully this will hammer the point home for anybody considering them.
So, if we were aware of this for a while, why is the information just now being released? Outside of the 2-week delay due to things going on in my personal life, there was also a concern about scalpers/ resellers buying out stock, causing scarcity and prices to rise. However, we determined that these batteries are still being produced, meaning stock will just be replaced if they are bought up.
Here's a few more relevant Links that may be able to help you out with anything not listed here:
Battery Guide from a few years ago by . Some info might be outdated but it's got lots of other info. Here's some topics it covers that are not mentioned on this post:
Dead Batteries
Reviving a Battery
Battery expansions (Big Battery Mod)
Pandora Batteries
Keep in mind, we currently don't have any hard info on PSP E1000 (Street) or PSP Go Batteries. You can help the community out by looking into them yourselves, sharing what you know, or pointing us to a battery post we may have missed with relevant info.
Hopefully, this will make the PSP more welcoming to newcomers as one of the major issues has been addressed. And remember, you can always opt to gut the UMD Drive and do a big Battery Mod.
Chargers for PSP 1000, 2000, 3000, Go and Go Docks.
So this is really simple. Just look up PSP-380 and PSP-100. Those chargers are OEM and are still fairly abundant and cheap, and Work on PSP 1000, 2000, 3000 and the Go Dock. I currently Don't own a Street so I do not know if they are compatible. They do not work on the PSP Go itself, just the Dock.
Now the PSP Go has its own charger. The OEM Model is PSP-N100. They're harder to come by than the others, sorry I don't have a better answer for this currently.
This charger section really needs help from the community, so if you have any that work, feel free to recommend them in the comments below.
Products to Avoid
This section is largely based on Feedback from user comments on this post. Thank you! That being said take everything here with a grain of salt. Users that contributed to each entry are credited below the entry title.
Batmax 2Pcs PSP-2000 Battery + LED Dual USB Charger
This appears to be New Old Stock, or just really poor quality. Batteries typically arrive dead and non-charging. The chargers themselves don't work, and can wreck other batteries. Avoid at all costs.
BIG UPDATE 5/30/2024
Hey what's up, it's been awhile. I came back today because my official Sony Batteries for my 3000's are finally starting to show age. I usually get under 2 hours out of them so I needed to replace them. I tried to buy some Cameron Sino batteries off Amazon but they will not ship to my location, so I had to hunt a bit. I ended up buying 2 of these Cameron Sino Batteries off Ali Express. I did check the official Cameron Sino store mention in this post, but they only have the thicker 1800mAh batteries I can't use. I have a Falcon Pro Grip from Japan that needs the 3000 to lay flush with it.
Anyways, when these new batts get here ima test them and update the post with my results, but for the meantime, it seems like Aliexpress is the way to go for PSP batteries. From what I saw the Cameron Sino branded ones are all pretty reliable on there, and cheaper than Amazon too! I probably should have included this on the post originally, but this is my first time actually using Ali express.
I also came across this post by u/KSAnnihilation testing multiple Batteries off Ali Express. This is what convinced me to buy off there. It's similar to the tests we did here but is more recent and shows a better supply than Amazon. I understand this post is a year old as of writing. If you guys post something like this to the subreddit related to batteries, feel free to DM me on here about it and I'll take a look. I have reddit notifs silenced but do check everything when I log in so I will see it.

I followed your guy’s advice and modded a new psp that I just got and hoollyyy. Never modded anything in my life and it was overwhelming at first but as soon as you get an idea of what you need to do, it’s a breeze and super easy to do.
Just downloaded all my child hood games and a bunch more to play so I’ll be spending all my free time playing on this thing. It’s crazy to see how far ahead of its time this thing was.
Hello. I need some advice guys.
I have a PSP 3000 near mint condition (like, the only thing It doesn't have rn Is a battery) with also the OEM charger. I also have a PSP 1000, shell swapped. It's still really good but it has two problems:
- Power goes off when PSP takes big bumps
- the UMD disc reader is broken
I was thinking: should I sell the 3000 to buy a PSVita 1000 with Its money to expand my game roaster or it isn't worth the value and I should keep the 3000 and search for an "economic" PsVita?
Here some photos of the PSPs and a part of my game collection, hope you like It <3
For me it was Midnight Club LA Remix, and also Tomb Raider anniversary, both of these games look absolutely unreal on the PSP, crazy what this little handheld can accomplish.
So ive seen these have been becoming abit popular. I thought to myself i had one back in the day as a kid. I was 100% sure i threw it away... turns out i threw away the battery and the charger and the thing sat in a drawer for like 10+ years. It looks like a 2004 to me. date code 7c. Should i look out for what battery i buy or something so i dont accidentally damage it?
So, i recently bought a psp 3000 from my neighbour for a cheap price and they also game me a camera. When i asked about the camera to my expert friend He said that the camera is pretty rare... does anyone know anything about it?
I got a broken Psp2000 for pretty cheap. I replaced the shell, analog module + jelly bar, and the mem stick with an adapter. I tried to reuse all the original parts I could, but a lot were missing/shattered. I lubricated the umd drive, and cleaned the screen up as best I could, but both still give me intermittent issues.(blotchy water-like damage looks like alcohol seeped inside or straight up water damage) (when playing umds I get rapid fire "do you want to close the game" pauses, home button definitely not stuck or anything like that) (the cheap $18 shell is, well cheap, thin plastic sloppy holes)so not perfect.
This thing is the best! I immediately updated to 6.61, and started enjoying all my games. I put some xxx movies on there, I got mp3's. Every psp game I can imagine I'll ever play, and still 50gb left. Can't believe how well it runs, and how crisp the display is. It blows the DS away (my closest reference). Happy to be on the team. Let's enjoy these while we can!
Every time I try to turn on my PSP, it goes to this screen and I have no way to insert the micro SD card into my PC. How can I get out of this situation? The previous owner had used a different cfw method and my SD card was different. When I tried to access the Infinity application, this appeared.
Hey everyone, im having an issue with my psp 2000 where these lines on the screen go away when I bend the unit in a certain way, they also make the UMD not work/ spin extremely slow and ask if I want to quit the game every 5 sec, unless I bend it which causes it to work flawlessly.
I have already taken it apart three times to clean the contacts of each cable and I have cleaned and lubed the UMD as I did a shell swap (This issue still existed before the swap).
I am open to soldering and I also have a heat gun which I am very familiar with. Any help as to a joint that might be cracked to cause the issue would be greatly appreciated 🙏 Thanksss
Hey guys, I’m looking for some items to complete my collection. It’s the pouch and the lcd cloth I’m looking for, for the metal gear solid edition psp 3000. Any help or links and such would be unbelievably helpful. Thank you.
Done some cleaning today and come across this beauty, not selling on here but am keen to know a figure if anybody has an idea? Unboxed unfortunately but very good condition with minor case scratches barely noticeable fully working though. Almost seems a shame to be even considering it
PSP was stored in a box with my other ones, this one is modded and won’t turn on, no green light either. Orange light however still does turn on when plugged in, but ONLY if a battery is in it while plugged.
Tried all the holding button methods, taking out the battery (which won’t work because no lights are present when there’s no battery) and also taking out memory card.
So I have a 1001 model and I want to replace the face plate of it with a clear blue one as my original one is all scratched up and has a few noticeable cracks I also want to replace the buttons,battery cover, and the steel ring on the back. Where do you recommend getting these?
do basically like i have this memory card but its not working for the psp and its saying theres no memory card, like what do i do to be able to fix it? it has a memory stick pro duo adapter and the mini card inside it is a samsung 256 pro plus, im not sure if its because of the little mini card because im new to this psp stuff so please help me out a bit
