from what ive heard the earth supposedly goes through hot and cold stages regardless of what we're doing. the tiny heat change we're seeing could either be that or global warming. who knows which..
anywho i dont do any of those things

nice 1 JP .
dont know if its true , but I read somewhere that lower screen brightness is done by
increasing opacity of the screen substrate.
The backlight intensity is constant , so changing brightness makes no diff to power consumption.
tip #3 is great , didnt know this b4.

If that were true there would have been no need to
disable the fourth brightness level when running from the battery.

The PSP is already a very power efficient device.
THe small power savings you make on the PSP amount to nothing.
It would be far better to turn a heater off in your house a few seconds earlier.
That will save more power than anything you do to
save energy with a PSP all year.

lmao i missed what osgeld said.
that pretty much sums it up no?

I totally understand this thread on a 'get more life out of your PSP' level. But saying this is about global warming? Seriously.. that's a bit out of hand. This reminds me of the time a guy complained about his eBay account being hacked and how, clearly, someone was going to make money off of his eBay account and use that money to fund terrorism.

Not all regular problems need to be thrown into the global scale for attention. =D

I already do all that just to save battery life and don't need to recharge so often
except the solar cell stuff, but i think it would take ages to charge.

mp3 playing with the screen off goes like for 10 hours or more

i always keep my brightness all the way down unless its plugged in. then its at lvl 2, because for some reason i get an anoying hum if its plugged in and all the way down

eh check your connections, its just a ground loop which could be caused by

A faulty wire
B loose connection
C faulty connector
D cold solder

worst case its a bad component witch after looking around the web last night isnt that expensive for parts (screens for 50 bucks! backlights for 19.99 wow, cant buy a matrix orbital serial 16char x 4 line + G lcd for both combined)
