So basically my gf gave me her old DSL (that she hasnt used in months) and I went out and bought a charger and stylus for it (cus she lost hers) and after plugging it in and charging it and trying to play it, one of the little lights just comes on orange for a second and then goes out, I switched outlets, I let it charge for awhile, I tried a bunch of stuff and it won't work.

I posted about this before in another thread on CAG and another member told me that maybe it was my battery, and that I would need a replacement battery, well, I searched target, walmart, gamestop, etc and found nothing. so now am searching online, can anyone tell me a site to get it from, or if there maybe there might be other problems with my dslite? i dont really wanna spend more money on it for the battery if its just gonna be some other issue once i get a new battery...

i did however find these ones for pretty cheap, would they work? or is this site reliable?

- thanks in advance for any help, this is beginning to get rather frustrating. after searching online, apparently there's a ton of people having this problem, so i dont get why they don't stock these in stores. :bomb:

thanks, that actually sounds like a good idea since I know of one near my GameStop that I'm pretty sure no gamers have walked into in quite awhile.

hopefully there'll be a 3 dollar one sitting there waiting for me :drool: :bouncy:
