    Cut the red and black plug cord off from the battery halfway down the black and red cords, then strip them down 1/4th to the wires, and then take a usb type A cable, strip the cord 1/3rd til you get to the red and black smaller cords inside of that, strip both of those 1/4th to the wires, and then combine the red usb cord wire to the red battery plug wire, and then combine the black usb cord wire to the black battery plug wire(Please cover the combined wires with electrical tape after your done if you have it) After this just plug your newly made USB plug cable straight into the motherboard where the battery used to be plugged in(Now instead of plugging a battery into the motherboard, in its place should be the half of a USB cable that plugs into your playstation) also remember to find a way for the cable to exit the controller when you put it back together.

    My battery was exhausted so for over a year now I’ve just kept the controller plugged into a power bank to keep it somewhat wireless but that doesn’t even work now.
    Thanks to the encouragement and direction of this video I went for it and it’s working. Only difference was I snipped my battery cables close to the battery and spliced into those to use the battery’s connector

      O cabo da conexão só fornece energia, certo? Aqui só tô usando ele por Bluetooth, ou seja, conecto esse cabo da gambiarra numa entrada USB e pareio ele por Bluetooth por exemplo no meu celular. O problema é que pra conectar de volta no ps4 não tem como ser direto por Bluetooth, tem que antes conectar ele diretamente por cabo (pela entrada natural do controle). Tô com medo de conectar o USB pra fornecer energia e o USB pra parear com o ps4 e dar algum tipo de curto circuito. Você já testou fazer algo assim, ou alguma outra maneira de conectar no ps4?

      The Commands have no input lag whatsoever, but in other side if you format the PS4 you gonna need either a keyboard or another controler or a PS4 Remote Play app to find the controlelr again cuz he still being detected as a "wireless" input the board just being feed by the power from the port
