Which battery is used there. I mean the specs so I can buy it.
Hi @daviribeiro, we don't have the specific battery details, but it uses a 860mAh rechargeable Lithium-ion battery.
¡Gracias por compartir las instrucciones detalladas para reemplazar la batería del GameSir Cyclone 2! La información es muy útil, especialmente para jugadores como yo. ¿Sabes cómo guardar correctamente la batería después de reemplazarla para prolongar su vida útil?
@geraldwarren Hi!
There exist a lot of different tips in battery hygiene, the most effective tip is to not let the battery discharge "below" 0%, as that can damage the battery, and in extension, make sure that there is always some charge on the battery. This usually comes more into effect when a battery sits unused for a long period of time, as batteries will naturally discharge over time. But batteries will always eventually need to be replaced.

¡Hola!
Hay muchos consejos sobre el cuidado de la batería. El más eficaz es no dejar que la batería se descargue "por debajo" del 0%, ya que eso puede dañarla, y asegurarse de que siempre haya algo de carga en la batería. Esto suele ser más importante cuando una batería permanece sin usarse durante un largo período de tiempo, ya que las baterías se descargan de forma natural con el paso del tiempo.
Pero las baterías siempre terminarán necesitando ser reemplazadas.
