40 Hours of Play for those Long-Haul Flights
To prepare for the trip, we looked online for the biggest most long-lasting PSP battery pack we could find. Imagine our disappointment! We couldn't find any that went beyond about 8 hours of play time. This is no use on a 22-hour flight.
I found myself wondering why they didn't just make a PSP battery pack that could take normal batteries that you can buy at any airport. Sure, it would cost a bit to run on Duracells, but it would solve the problem of PSP power on a long flight once and for all. I seemed to recall that Duracell 'D' cells store about 12,000mAh (compared to the PSP internal battery's puny 1800mAh). And thus, the concept for the PSP Power Brick was born.
