GBA SP battery

How much mAh does the NES draw??

Would it be possible to use 2 GBA SP batteries in a series?

3.8V 600mAh

It would only take a maximum of 6 hours to charge them, and you get decent play time on a gameboy, so I was just wondering.

aint gonna hapen, they are good batteries but a gameboy only draws a few hundred mah at the most, nes probably draws an amp or more

how much does a NOAC draw

A NOAC draws about 50 mah.

So if I were to use an noac, I could use the GBA batteries. hmmm...

Wonder if you can get those proprietory ports?

With either internal or external games.

I'm guessing internal, and even then that seems REALLY low....are you sure it's 50ma?

don't forget the screen. you should probably just use a different battery. 600mah is tiny little itsy-bitsy teeny weeny puny small low

That's what it says in Ben's NESP story, that is if I remember right.... I'm too lazy to check, on my dial up it would take about 3 min.

As for your original question Jak, you might be able to power an original NES but it wouldn't last long at all. I think the NES uses something like an amp of power so I dunno if it would work. Even if it did you could only get about a half hour without a screen.

EDIT:

Bens NESP story wrote:Later on I tested it and found it only drew 50mA of power to run. That's pretty low, a hacked-up Atari 2600 is usually 250-300mA.

Yep I was right!

How dare you question my portable knowledge!

With an LED moded PS1 screen, it should run 1-1.5 hours on internal games. Like I was hinting at, external games probably raise the draw.

BTW Turbo: It is Ni-MH, not NI-MI. That would make them Nickel Diodide Metal Moniodide which is impossible, because iodine ions cannot exist as individuals. It is really Nickel Metal Hydrate. Sorry to do this to you, but it's just a little FYI. *The more you know* <Family Guy..(Spirit Quest episode)>
