Description:

We have all heard about the Playstation 3 battery problem in the controller, and Sony would tell you to go buy a new controller, because they are not going to replace it. Why go out there and buy a whole new controller when you can just replace the battery? The Playstation 3 Wireless Controller Rechargeable battery is the safe and easy alternative to buying a whole new controller in case your controller died.

Features:
  • Designed specially for Playstation 3

  • High capacity Li-Ion battery, 1200mAh rating

  • Two hours of charging time allows up to 45 hours of continuous play

1Did not last 30 days...  Nov 30, 2010
By James
I bought this battery to replace my PS3 Dualshock3 SIXAXIS Controller. It worked fine for about 20 days & died. I would suggest everyone to stay away from this product.

2I gave it a try, didnt work in the end  Aug 21, 2011
By Jawknee
One day my ps3 controller wouldnt turn on, so i googled and decided i might as well try a new battery. So i checked out different ones and based on the reviews i ordered this one. At first it worked fine, batter was fully charged, but i put it on the charger all night anyway. The next morning i used it just about all day, and i left the controller on to kill it(to set charge memory). Unfortunately the controller didnt turn on and when i went to charge it nothing happened. I dont believe this would be the controller, seeing it worked fine on the original batter. Maybe in due time ill try another one, maybe i just got a bad one.

In the end its worth it to try and save a controller that costs 60$ new with a 7$ battery. Whether it fixes it or not is probably 50/50.

5Easy to install  Apr 09, 2012
By TheMeg
The battery pack was really easy to install, just had to remove the 5 screws on the back cover, and lift off the back. The battery was very easy to replace, and the controller finally works!

4Cheap and Works Great!  Feb 27, 2012
By Alex Littaua
This battery is great for people who love long gaming sessions on the PS3. Although is wasn't what I needed to fix one of my older controllers, I popped the battery into another controller and have already experience twice as much battery life than with the standard OEM (original equipment manufacturer) battery. Be warned! Unless you know how to dismantle and reassemble a PS3 controller, do not do this by yourself. If you can, go on YouTube and check out some videos. Of course, I did not need to since I do this all the time but for novices or inexperienced users, do not do this without aid!

5ps3 controller battery replacement  Jan 18, 2012
By fake band uh player guy
I ordered 2 of these replacement batteries for $2.95 each + $5.47 which came to $11.47 total. I had one ps3 controller that would not hold a charge and another controller I have owned for about the same amount of time. I would be surprised if the other controller I have doesn't stop soon. New ps3 controllers still cost about $50 each. So for less than 12 bucks I should be good for a while. Much better than spending at least $100 to buy new ones.

When it comes to installing these batteries, look up a how to video on youtube. Do this before you even try to open your controller up. There are several to choose from and some are more detailed than others. You could break your controller if you are not careful. The problem I had was the R1 and R2 buttons came apart when I opened the controller case. That was very hard to get back together. A few little pieces need to go back just right or your controller will be dead for good.

Make sure you have a mini screwdriver and a flashlight. When the R1 R2 buttons came apart I needed a head lamp and about 20 minutes to get it back together. If you are careful you might not have those buttons fall apart.
