1500 mAh rechargeable battery: no more disposable batteries on your Game Boy
A Game Boy Advance, Color or Pocket drains a pair of batteries in a few evenings. This 1500 mAh lithium pack takes their place in the original compartment and recharges through a built-in charging port. Three separate versions, one per console: choose yours before ordering.
What it does
- Replaces the batteries: the pack fits into the original battery compartment, without changing the console's shell.
- Recharges in place: a charging port is built into the pack, so there's no need for a separate battery charger.
- One version per machine: the Game Boy Advance, Game Boy Color and Game Boy Pocket each have their own reference.
- 1500 mAh stated: capacity declared by the manufacturer, to be taken as a rough guide.
What it doesn't do
- No charging cable or mains adapter is supplied: the supplier lists the pack as “without USB”. You'll need to provide your own.
- The exact type of charging connector has not been confirmed by the supplier — to be confirmed before ordering a cable.
- A fit without modification is not guaranteed: depending on the console, accessing the charging port may require cutting the battery cover.
- It doesn't improve the screen, the sound or performance: it's a power source, nothing more.
- The stated battery life doesn't take into account a backlit IPS screen added later, which uses more power than the original screen.
Compatibility
Game Boy Advance (AGB-001), Game Boy Color (CGB-001) and Game Boy Pocket (MGB-001), with a dedicated version for each console. Not suitable for the Game Boy Advance SP or the Game Boy Micro, which already have a built-in battery, or for the original Game Boy (DMG-01), whose compartment takes four AA batteries.
Skill level required
No soldering for an installation in the battery compartment: the cover opens by hand on all three consoles. You'll only need a tri-wing screwdriver if you decide to open the shell to route the charging port somewhere other than through the cover — that kind of installation is modding and is not described by the manufacturer.
In the box
- 1 rechargeable 1500 mAh lithium battery pack, in the version matching the console you choose.
- No charging cable, no mains adapter.

The job: take the batteries out of the compartment
On a Game Boy Advance or Game Boy Color, the battery compartment is what ages worst: corroded contacts, batteries to change in the middle of a game, alkalines that leak when the console sits in a drawer for months. This lithium pack takes exactly that spot and recharges without any disassembly. The console becomes a machine you pick up in the evening again, not a shelf ornament.
The part: what the manufacturer states
The manufacturer declares 1500 mAh and a charging port built into the pack, with a separate reference for the Game Boy Advance, the Game Boy Color and the Game Boy Pocket: the compartment doesn't have the same dimensions or battery format from one console to the next. We quote these figures exactly as declared, without rounding them up, and we point out anything that isn't documented.
What we tell you before you buy
Two things to know before checking out: no charging cable is supplied, and the supplier doesn't specify the pack's connector type. We'd rather say so than guess. Depending on the console, routing the charging port out may also require cutting the battery cover. Got a question about your model? Reply within 1 business day.

Frequently Asked Questions
🔋 Does this pack really replace the batteries?
Yes. It fits in the original battery compartment, in place of disposable batteries, and powers the console the same way. It then recharges through its built-in charging port.
🎮 Which consoles are compatible?
Game Boy Advance (AGB-001), Game Boy Color (CGB-001) and Game Boy Pocket (MGB-001), with a dedicated version for each console. Neither the Game Boy Advance SP, the Game Boy Micro nor the original Game Boy (DMG-01) is covered.
🔧 Do I need to solder or take the console apart?
No for an installation in the battery compartment: the cover opens by hand. Opening the shell is only necessary if you choose to route the charging port elsewhere, which is modding and is not described by the manufacturer.
🔌 Is the charging cable included?
No. The supplier lists the pack without a cable or mains adapter. The exact connector type has not been confirmed, so we don't state it until it is.
✂️ Do I need to cut the battery cover?
It depends on the console and the version of the pack: accessing the charging port may require a small cut-out in the cover. This is a permanent modification to that part, to be decided before fitting.
⏱️ How much battery life can I expect?
The stated capacity is 1500 mAh. We haven't measured it, so we don't publish a figure in hours. A backlit IPS screen added later uses more power than the original screen and reduces this battery life.
🚚 What are the delivery times?
Delivery in 10 to 18 days, ships within 3 to 5 days.
🛡️ Which guarantee applies?
2-year legal guarantee of conformity. 14-day returns. French customer service, reply within 1 business day.
Why buy here rather than on a marketplace
It is a fair question. Here is the answer, straight.
Every listing is checked before publication: real compatibility, material, dimensions, box contents. Many models never make it into the catalogue.
A question about compatibility, a fit problem, a return: you write, a human replies within 1 business day. In French.
The 2-year legal warranty of conformity is handled by us — not by a form on the other side of the world. And 14 days to change your mind, with no need to justify yourself.
We do not claim to be the cheapest. We claim that you will know exactly what you are buying before you pay.
