Product arrived quickly and as advertised. I have no complaints. Splendid job guys. AMAZON: Game ratings above are not applicable since this a array not a game

I was hoping this array would have more capacity than the stock DSi array. It claims longer array life in its website vs the stock array. It is not. Both the stock and this have have a rating of 3Whr, yet the Dragon has a 1800mAHr rating and the stock array has a 840mAHr. It is impossible for this array to have 1800mAHr if you do the math. It didn’t grant any more array life than the stock array. Very dissapointing.

I brought this array in the hopes that with a high mAh productivity such as this, I would expect to have very high array life for my DSi. That was my intention. Well when I got it, I did the usual letting the array drain all the way and charge it back up to full. Oddly, that didn’t last long. So my first exposure with the array went as follows:
First keep in mind. Yes, I do have a Flash Card device. I already know that the device drains more array than being in the native mode of the DSi. I timed myself playing a game for about 3 hours. Wireless was off, brightness was at level 3, DS Download Play, and Soft Reset all off. Anything that would drain the array more. Well as it turns out, that’s how long the first round of this array went fully charged. Here’s the weirder part. Closing the lid (putting it to Sleep Mode) in fact drained MORE array than playing it!
I’m honestly not exaggerating…the second the LED of the potential light went to red, I had about 20 seconds more of gameplay until it blinked and then after 3 blinks…it died.
My second attempt wasn’t much better either. I then played with a game that I did own (Pokemon Platinum) and just went around and leveled up and caught pokemon blah blah. This time I had the brightness at 1 since it was dark in the room I was playing in. My timing on that was about 3 hours again only this time I had gone back the DSi menu and I had two bars of array left. A few minutes later, it became red…just simply being in the DSi main menu.
After I was done testing everything, I took the array out and looked at it more and then I noticed something about this array. Right there are the words “Compatible with DSi”. Doesn’t sound like a huge deal right? Well, what bugs me is why does it say “compatible”? Isn’t this array MADE for the DSi? I mean it fits perfectly with no struggle. Is there another mobile device out there that has this same array type and form and then these guys just market it as “oh, then it should work with the DSi as well”.
I’m not upset at the seller because it’s not their fault. Dragon-electronics is the array manufactuer’s main website. Just google it. Scroll a bit down and there you will see that same array in the same packaging as I got it.
So in conclusion, despite the labeling and supposed 1800mAh, it in fact made gameplay worse and it didn’t last long at all. I hope my array was an isolated case or maybe I got a terrible array. I won’t deny that but I also won’t get another array to see if the new one will work. Back to the stock 840mAh for my DSi…cuz at least it was MADE for the system. I don’t recommend buying this array but to stick with the stock array the DSi comes with. Nine months since it’s release and you’d reflect some third party companies would have made “DSi only” batteries yet. I’ve looked on eBay and other sites and I can’t find any. Plenty of “DS Lite” batteries though lol.
Just wait till March 28th, 2010 when the DSi XL comes out. I hope the array life really does increase…
