Disable PSP’s damaged supercapacitor

New Feature

The damage to the PSP’s supercapacitor can cause the PSP to incorrectly recognize the battery level, so the device will refuse to boot up. I wonder if it is possible to disable the PSP’s supercapacitor via a firmware option, so that this issue can be resolved without a hardware remove / replacement.

I found some related discussions:

That is a hardware issue not software. You would just have to replace the capacitor if you don't want the battery to drain faster.

Ok, I see.
