My game controller's Li-ion pouch battery is swollen and has died. I was thinking if it was possible to replace the internal battery with capacitor/supercapacitor. I don't need the wireless functionality. I just want to be able to plug the controller into the PC in wired mode and be able to use it. The controller needs a battery to work. Therefore i was wondering if using a capacitor may trick the controller into thinking it is connected to the battery.
The Li-ion battery had max discharge voltage of 2.7 V and 1 amp max.
Let me know if it is possible.
