After 16 years of abuse, both of mine DS3's battery is dead as my club penguin account.
Any good replacement solution? Don't wanna brought a cheap crap on aliexpress and blow myself up.
 
Is it good? I'm down for 50 bucks if it's good. The other PS3 controllers I've tried are terrible.

Yeah, it is great. Has all DS3 functionality from what I've seen. Rumble included. I'm playing Infamous on PS3 right now with it. Works really well.

Ok bought. I'll be playing PoP: Sands of Time when it gets here Wednesday.
 
The battery isn't anything different than what was used for cordless phones so you can do that.

But retro fighters does make some amazing controllers, right up there with 8 Bit Do.
 
Great game
I've been wanting to play it again and I have it on Steam, but for some reason it just feels awkward to play on PC with a controller. I plugged in my PS3 to play it and neither of the aftermarket controllers I have for it want to stay charged, so I've been looking for a good one to replace them. Hopefully this is it.
 
I bought a good spare PS3 controller a while back as I for-saw a shortage. There were a lot of bogus fake controllers even back then.

Instead of answering your question properly, i'll contend you should just get a Brook adapter. Been using a PS5 controller on my PS3 for a while and it's improved racing games and shooters dramatically. Why Sony went with convex triggers for the DS3 I will never understand.
 
You are not supposed to "replace" a "battery", you fucking communist scum. You're supposed to buy a new controller, like a real American.
