Will my PSP battery blow up?

I don't remember exactly, but one of the 2 (volt or amperes) can be slightly different from the original. But in your case, both tension and current are very different from the original, so don't risk it. There are several articles on the internet where you could find more reliable information, thou.

About the Troll-wannabe, I will just ignore it.

Ugh. That was incredibly depressing to read... I literally got sick to my stomach reading that abortion of a troll attempt. Not only was it unfunny, it was unimaginative, bland, and forced. Your bad sense of humor offends and saddens me quite a great deal. I have taken the liberty of reporting your post in the hopes of sparing unaware forum-goers from your depressingly twisted humor. I'm usually fine with trolling but this... This was just too much. :|Minh1

I'm glad you liked it. :)

Seriously though, I was just kidding. You guys are way too uptight. Smiling's good for you. You should try it.

The voltages on the batteries are never good things to tamper with, as it can cause short circuits or cause irreparable damage to either the battery or the charger...perhaps even both.

I'm no expert on these things, but with a higher voltage, it means you will have it charge in less time,however no one short of an electrician, computer hardware specialist, etc. could tell you the exact amount of time it takes to charge.Without a good timeframe to charge,you can overcharge the battery and the PSP won't register it as a working battery(the battery power level sensor is ruined in cases like this, since it charges past the registered maximum safe operating power level).

Your best bet is just going to a store that sells the proper accessories, and buy the one you need. Otherwise, you're going to be dealing with a short circuit, and it's not the Daft Punk song kinda Short Circuit.

It was quite the good read. (Sorry Minh, but you did kinda overreact, as it's just too bizarre and fantastic to be real.)

All Standard Sony batteries have something in them called an IC. These IC's have specific parts which react to immense discharges that are associated with the venting of flames (aka "exploding").

So long as you stick with Sony grade batteries (or other proven quality batteries) there is no reason to overreact and worry about severe battery malfunctions.
