GP2x Battery Life

Post by minkster »

I've heard the GP2x battery life isn't that great...only like 2 hours of battery life. But I did hear that you can use rechargeable batteries. I've seen at places like walmart sell energizer rechargeable aa's. Would these batteries keep the GP2x running long? Or do you guys have any other recharble ones to suggest. Thanks-minkster

Hmm I'll look into the NiMh's that G-force said pwned the others :P I think the energizer ones I saw also had a 15 min. charger thing too...I might compare prices to see which one is cheaper, and look at the mAh. Oh yeah and heres a link to the energizer product I was talking about.
