Dreamcast and GameCube battery holder: a date and time that hold
A Dreamcast that asks for the date at every start-up, or a GameCube that loses its clock: the original soldered battery is worn out. This 2032 coin cell holder is soldered in its place; after that, the battery changes in seconds. The complete versions add coloured LEDs to customise the power indicator.
What it does
- Replaceable battery: once the holder is soldered, no iron is needed to change the battery.
- Two models: one holder for the Dreamcast, another for the GameCube.
- Complete version: coloured LEDs, plus a few supporting components for the Dreamcast.
What it does not do
- Battery not included. On Dreamcast, use a rechargeable ML2032 battery: the console recharges its battery.
- It does not recover saves, which are stored on the memory card.
- One holder per version: Dreamcast and GameCube are ordered separately.
- No tools included.
Compatibility
Dreamcast or GameCube, depending on the version chosen.
Skill level
Intermediate soldering: opening the console, desoldering the original battery, soldering the holder while observing polarity. A security screwdriver suited to the console is required.
In the box
- 1 2032 coin cell holder for the chosen console
- Complete versions: coloured LEDs, and supporting components for the Dreamcast

The job: done with the soldered battery
Open the console, desolder the original battery and solder the holder in its place, observing polarity. Next time, the battery changes by hand, without taking an iron to the board again.
The part: one holder per console
The 2032 holder exists for the Dreamcast and for the GameCube. The complete versions add coloured LEDs to change the power indicator, and a few supporting components for the Dreamcast.
Our support: choose the right battery
The Dreamcast recharges its battery: you need a rechargeable ML2032, never a standard battery. A question before soldering? Our French support team replies by e-mail within one working day.

Why buy here rather than on a marketplace
It is a fair question. Here is the answer, straight.
Every listing is checked before publication: real compatibility, material, dimensions, box contents. Many models never make it into the catalogue.
A question about compatibility, a fit problem, a return: you write, a human replies within 1 business day. In French.
The 2-year legal warranty of conformity is handled by us — not by a form on the other side of the world. And 14 days to change your mind, with no need to justify yourself.
We do not claim to be the cheapest. We claim that you will know exactly what you are buying before you pay.
