Nintendo ds green/ red battery light

[CharlesConradie]

I recently purchased a ds and according to the manual the light turns red as soon as the battery needs a recharge. My ds's light however, flickers and as I play longer it stayed red for longer but still keeps on flickering. The light flickers very quickly and my first thought was that there's maybe a short somewhere in my ds. Is it suppose to do that?

It's perfectly fine, the red light tells you when it's about 10% battery life (i think) it flickers when its near that but not quite on it. I suppose it's a slight design fault but nothing to worry about.

The flickering sometimes happens when i play AW but never Mario 64, which is a bit odd.
