It is physically larger than the batteries found in the standard-sized 3DS or 2DS models and provides the necessary power for the larger dual screens. Do the 3DS and new 3DS use the same battery? No. The standard-sized 3DS and the standard-sized "New" 3DS use the smaller CTR-003 battery. If you have the small/standard console, you should purchase our Regular 3DS Replacement Battery (CTR-003) instead. Does a 3DS XL have a lithium battery? Yes, all consoles in the 3DS family utilize 3.7V Lithium-ion (Li-ion) technology. This allows for lightweight portability and the ability to recharge the unit hundreds of times before the capacity begins to degrade. How long should a 3DS XL battery last? With a fresh 2000mAh cell, you can expect between 3.5 to 7 hours of gameplay depending on your 3D depth settings and brightness. Replacing a "tired" original battery is the easiest way to restore your console to its factory-spec performance.
