The Sony PlayStation Portable is a portable hand-held gaming device. It uses a battery pack that allows you to take your gaming on the road and play wherever you are. Since there are several versions of the PSP hardware, there are also several battery packs go with them. If your PSP does not recognize your battery, it may be dead or simply not compatible with your PSP model.
Instructions
1. Charge the battery with the DC power adapter. If your PSP will not work on battery power, the battery may simply be drained and in need of a charge.
2. Check that the battery you are using is compatible with your PSP model. The PSP-180 and PSP-280 battery packs are only compatible with the PSP-1001 model. If you have a PSP-2001 or PSP-30001, you will need the SCPH-98552 battery pack.
3. Replace your battery. If you are using the proper battery and it will not take a charge, then it may be depleted. Batteries have a limited lifespan, decreasing the amount of charge they can hold over time. Depending on the conditions the battery was used in and how often it was used and charged, this lifespan can be fairly short. You may need to replace the battery or only run your PSP off the DC power adapter.
