Mac Forum / General / Hardware / February 2005iPOD and battery question
Are the battery issues any better with the new iPODS? Is there any way that if a battery goes bad to just buy a battery instead of sending in the IPOD to service? What should I look for when buying an iPOD? > Are the battery issues any better with the new iPODS? Is there any way > that if a battery goes bad to just buy a battery instead of sending in > the IPOD to service? Yes. OWC (http://www.macsales.com) has batteries for iPods for $25-40 that come with tools and instructions: http://eshop.macsales.com/Catalog_Page.cfm?Parent=1225&Title=1Template=1 As for personal experience... my iPod is 2 years old. New, it gave me about 8 hours of play time, and now I'm getting about 5. This is pretty consistent with other people's experiences, and typical of Li battery drain over that amount of time (regardless of use). YMMV. This page is also pretty informative: http://www.ipodbatteryfaq.com/ > Are the battery issues any better with the new iPODS?

The battery issues have been better even with the old iPods for quite some time. > What should I look for when buying an iPOD? The set of features/characteristics that meets your specific needs.  SignatureI think the breaking point for me as a fan came when George started talking about the pivotal Episode 3 light-saber duel between Palpatine and C-3PO. |
