DS Lite Battery Life

[G18241]

I charged my DS lite up last night, and it has been on about 6 hours today and the battery light has gone orange...is 6 hours about the right amount of battery time

I have the brightness on full and no sound

Sounds about right considering you have the brightness ramped up to max.

The screen brightness is the biggest factor on battery performance. Knocking it down a notch or 2 can make a massive difference.

Think I had my DS Lite on one notch above the lowest. Was plenty bright for me (better than the original DS on max) and gave excellent battery life.

I use mine sneakily at work with no sound on full brightness and I get much longer than 6 hours from my battery. I'd say double that and about 8 hours with sound.

Sometimes I go so long between charges I wonder if the orange light is broken

lol i just sit and play it at work anyway

ive actually just looked on google and 5-8 hours is the general battery life for full brightness

I dont know how you can play it at full brightness, when i turn it up to full it hurts my eyes.
