Was it a post in the old forums? If so I'll go and see if I can find it myself. But thanks anyway

Und Grüße aus Hessen

As an aside, here's the super mega battery that I bought.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/3-7V-10000-mAh- ... 1816212969

Please note, that this probably won't fit and won't work for a GBZ and I don't advise it. But, I'm gonna try anyway.

I will have to move components up top, sacrifice one of the screw wells left over from the battery case, and somehow shave off 3mm from the underside of Cartridge Port to HOPEFULLY make it fit. Would be incredible if i could get it going.

But if all else fails, I'm going to abandon it and use it for another project, perhaps a homemade bluetooth speaker for picnicing in parks

Anyway, I'm just showing you that battery because there are lots of options out there if you look. Just make sure that it is a 3.7V LiPO battery that has the protection circuit. And bonus if it has the JST 2P connector already attached. Good luck.

Are you talking about the idea of using 2 of those: http://shop.lipopower.de/1950-mAh-37V-Einzelzelle-1C ?

This particular one is out of stock, but you can always write or phone this guy and ask
for a battery that fits in a specified space with as much mAh as possible.
He manufactures them himself with the cells he orders, so you can get custom sizes.
He is really friendly, so just go ahead and ask him @_N0x.

Thank you for the reply Fleder.

I'm going to look around and see if I can find anything that fits my needs.

I'm also struggling in finding a battery.
I would prefer one where I can just push buy, pay it and receive it.
The Adafruit one however I refuse to buy because of the crazy shipping costs to Belgium. The ones I can find on Aliexpress are all with other measurements and mostly to long.
Anyone cares to share the link of the one they bought? If higher mah that would be great but that's not necessary!

Hi Jack

maybe you will find something in this shop http://shop.lipopower.de

This one http://shop.lipopower.de/1950-mAh-37V-Einzelzelle-1C should fit but it's currently not in the shop
