Is it normal for your battery to wear out fast when not in use or being charged.

For example, i have it fully charged, i come back 2 weeks later and it is dead, at 0%, is it a crappy batterey or do they all suck?

I remove the battery when not use it,if you don't remove it discharge!

you always hold it on?

do you turn it all the way off by holding the switch up for a couple seconds or do you just leave it on sleep?

Well i have tried holding it off but it drains no matter what. I guess i will have to remove it.

I don't think charging is a big deal..when your finished playing with it put it back on the charger..

And You will always have a full battery when you do this...gfg

That`s normal, rechargable batteries discharge faster than normal.

Yeah, I had a PSP and it had the same problems. PSP's kinda suck, not enough good games for it; I sold mine and bought a Nintendo DS Lite, and let me tell you it's a helluva lot more fun.
Oh btw, don't bother getting the 3rd part lithium batteries with more watts, they're even worse than the standard one.

PSP has WAY more homebrew/emulation development that DS will ever have.

Trick is getting a 1.5 firmware psp.

It's true you must keep one charged alot. I got one lol it just sucks when you have to recharge alot.
