I'm getting a PSP-Slim, so I need a spare battery (non-slim version) to make the Pandora bat. I've seen a few batteries mentioned (http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.2149)that can't be made into Pandora batteries, so could anyone point me in the direction of a good deal on a battery? 1800mah is fine, as long as it works.

Thanks!

Check that link. Beware that there are reports of newer Sony batteries not being compatible.

Cool, thanks for the info!

Also, do they have replacement batteries that fit the PSP-Slim yet? I was thinking of getting a higher capacity battery for regular use.

EDIT: I know the PSP-1000 batteries will fit, but I don't want it sticking out, so i'm looking for PSP-2k ones.

That's taken from this page (http://forums.noobz.eu/downgrader-support/pandoras-battery-jigkick-battery-and-magic-memory-stick-tutorial-guide/0/) on the N00bz support forum. They also have a visual guide (http://psp-homebrew.eu/images/pandoras-vguide-full.jpg) to which batteries are or are not compatible.

If it's not one of those then I guess just buy one and try it. You can help expand the compatibility list and you get a spare battery, even if it doesn't work. :)
