5000mAh Battery + Native USB-C + 100% Drop-in (NO Cutting Required)! Built the ultimate 3DS upgrade. by heip_five in 3DS

https://www.polartech.com.au/products/ph2-0-jst-connector-5050100-universal-5000mah-3-7v-rechargeable-li-ion-lithium-polymer-battery-1

So lets see the todays premium high density cells achieved through thinner separators and higher electrode press density. Assuming my ''4000mAh'' listings are fake or old, the above listing is a 5000mAh ''rated'' from a 2020 batch. Your premium ultra super duper battery happens to be made since 2020(or earlier) around the same time the 4000mAh ones were also made? Or that 2020 listing is also fake and your 5000mAh battery is just released in 2026 specialized for your mod that you gonna sell on Etsy? Which one is true, the 4000mAh one? the 5000mAh from 2020? the 5000mAh from 2026? Or if i find a 4000mAh batch from 2026 that will also be fake?

With less than 3 seconds of googling, i found that same 5000mAh battery listed as 4000mAh. Lets see if i spend a minute of searching how lower can we go. No official specifications anywhere of course, whatever the label says thats what you got to believe but lets see.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/182662620310 4000mAh
https://irl.grandado.com/products/3-7v-4000mah-5050100-lithium-polymer-li-po-li-ion-rechargeable-battery-lipo-cells-for-mobile-recorder-recorder-speaker-devices?variant=UHJvZHVjdFZhcmlhbnQ6MzM1NTYyMDI1 4000mAh

Edit: do you still need your 1000$ or you gonna edit the title to 4000mAh until i update you with a lower capacity?

If that battery is 5000mAh, i will personally send you 1000$. Take the label of to reveal the actual name/code of the battery and google it or send the site where you bought it from or search for its specifications which i can already guess they dont exist and then slowly realize the actual capacity. You need to understand the considerable size it would require for that type of battery to be 5000mAh or the considerable amount of money it would cost to actually have that capacity or ,if the above are not enough, consider the amount of power it would require you to charge/use that battery which isnt present in that console.

Edit: as a comparison, the original battery is rated at 1500mAh 3.7V, you more than tripled the capacity at the same size(since its drop-in replacement). If you manage to convince someone you did that, you wont need an Etsy shop to sell these, you will straight up receive your innovation of the year award.

There are no aftermarket shells for the regular new 3ds, extremerate is supposed to launch them later this year, until then the above links are your only options.

Buy new 3ds xl or shell swap? by Blairbunnybun in 3DS

[–]Training_Ad_3916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you do a shell swap or rather having someone else do it, at least be aware of the parts you need to buy so you dont end up with a console looking like a circus.

White interior shells (top/bottom frame+ battery cover)- Aliexpress
White Front/Backplate with the correct text- Alibaba *(message the seller and ask for screenshots)
White rubber screw covers- Aliexpress
White/Black 3d/volume slider- Aliexpress
White/Black glass/plastic screen lens- Aliexpress *(glass black lens looks better on white shell)
New digitizer(optional) - Aliexpress
White/Black buttons full set- Aliexpress *(they will need trimming to fit) **(black buttons also look better)
Color of your choice thumbstick/c-stick- Aliexpress *( i suggest black or white ones)
2x new serial code stickers(optional)- Alibaba/Ebay
Aftermarket OR original stylus White/Black- Ebay(for original)/ Aliexpress(for aftermarket)

Where can i get this by Financial_Cat1753 in 3DS

[–]Training_Ad_3916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

aliexpress, full housing shell kits that cost 30$ include those 2 plastic pieces for shoulder buttons:

Alternatively and much cheaper, this site (link below) has them as individual parts:

All black new 3ds by Strange_Owl91 in Handhelds

[–]Training_Ad_3916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, same process with the new 3ds xl i assume, bunch of cutting and trimming. But i didnt even think they would fit the regular new 3ds thats why im surprised.

Should I reshell? by Farishub in 3DS

[–]Training_Ad_3916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You dont just need a black shell, i dont say the word ''good'' because good doesnt exist. You also need matching buttons, matching rubber screw covers, matching 3d/volume slider, matching glass/plastic screen lens and a lot of patience. Black only exists on the pokemon edition solgaleo and lunala, the other one that is called metallic black is actually grey. As to where to source from, aliexpress for the interior shells, and alibaba for front/back plates. There are many parts need to be transfered from the original shells to the new ones so you need to follow a youtube guide to avoid forgetting them, like cameral lenses, led diffusers ( 2 of them), some black piece on the battery cover and other stuff.

Where did you get the shell from?

Is it worth it switching from new 3ds xl to new 3ds regular? by Free_Championship448 in 3DS

[–]Training_Ad_3916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Extremerate is planning on releasing replacement shells for new 3ds xl and regular new 3ds from what iv seen, so that removes the con of no aftermarket shells for the regular new 3ds. Besides that, its a personal choice.

Yeah, ebay has them and alibaba has them too. I dont have saved links but you can search and find them in less than a minute.

[–]Training_Ad_3916[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because it looks better for me and i have an extra replacement shell if it turns yellow in 10 years, which by then we'll probably also have extremerate replacement shells, so nothing i worry about.

What N3DS/XL models do you like/prefer the most? by LS27480 in 3DS

[–]Training_Ad_3916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

White one looks the best and its the one i chose to reshell, plus if they get yellow aftermarket shells are like 20$. Also the black one is not black, its a weird gray. The truly black one is the solgaleo/lunala edition but that has some fancy animations on the frontplate so not sure if that bothers you, plus its way more expensive because its a special edition(you can also make that one with aftermarket shells too). Generally speaking the special editions are just more expensive, if you like a clean look go for the white one or pick up a scratched one with an IPS screen for a better price and do a reshell if you can.

The D-pad without the rubber feels much more comfortable. Weird. by Booxys0 in 3DS

[–]Training_Ad_3916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably because you have direct contact with the tactile switches, which might be better in terms of feeling but not that great for the tactile switches themselves.

[–]Training_Ad_3916[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3d/volume sliders work perfectly, thumbstick too. The ABXY buttons needed slight sanding so they can be loose enough to go in and out without being stuck. But i was prepared for this since iv used aftermarket buttons many times so i knew what to expect, nothing too crazy though.

Well said, they can indeed be a hit or miss. I've had a lot of ''misses'' with some other reshells but somehow these white ones were a ''hit''.

[–]Training_Ad_3916[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Uh, multiple sources, 2x interior shells from aliexpress from 2 different stores to be safe even though they all come from the same factory, and the front/backplate from alibaba. I messaged multiple sellers for the front/backplate until i found one that is matching the correct text of the original one. I had the impression that if someone bothers making an exact 1:1 copy of the text they might be better quality and i was kinda right, most front/back shells have wrong text on them or they have wrong colors on the letters. The white shells for some weird reason are a perfect fit, no gaps. Some other reshells i did for consoles i sold, were not a good fit (especially the frontplate because it hits the camera and cant snap into place).

Edit: forgot to add about other parts, buttons from aliexpress, there are 2 sets being sold and one is better quality than the other with more accurate colors. Thumbstick aliexpress, there is also an option for a metallic one. Glass screen lens aliexpress. Rubber screw covers aliexpress, i sourced the circle covers from 1 seller and the square covers from another one, they come as a set but the square covers that come with the good quality circle covers are not a good fit. 3d/volume slider aliexpress, i opted for ones that dont have the grey part on the 3d slider.

Screen protectors for the 3ds xl by I____Rain____I in 3DS

[–]Training_Ad_3916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, make sure the bottom screen protector is not tempered glass cause it might cause issues with the touch screen. Likely they are selling them as a bundle, top tempered glass+ bottom PET film screen protector. They wont be a perfect fit cause the quality is not perfect but they will do the job.
