2000mAh Replacement Battery for iPod Classic and iPod Video (5th gen, 5.5 gen, 6 6.5 & 7th gen)

Compatible with all capacities of iPod Classic / Video (30GB, 60GB, 80GB, 120GB, 160GB)
Able to fit with iFlash adapters & most hard drives - please see conditions below
LG manufactured cell
Rated 3.8v
2000mAh rated capacity
40mm x 45mm x 5mm Dimensions (suitable for most iPods, see below)

Upgrade your iPod Clasic or iPod Video with these batteries. They have a much higher capacity than the original 750mAh batteries, and are newly manufactured so will have a much higher longevity than older Apple batteries. When paired with energy-efficient storage systems (SD cards, mSATA drives, etc) the battery life can be extended even further.

These batteries are much larger than the original battery, so please be aware of the mounting process before buying. If you have a hard drive in your iPod, you will need to ensure that the rear case of the iPod is the thick type, to allow the battery to sit atop the hard drive. However, if you have a 80GB iPod Video, or a 160GB 6th Gen Thick iPod Classic, the hard drive inside is thicker than usual, so you'll need to repalce the hard drive with a slimmer one. They're all compatable with each other so you can just use a HDD from any other 5th or 7th gen and everything will work. If you have an iFlash adapter, the battery can sit beside it or above it, depending on the model

Battery Use

When installing a new battery, it is best to fully charge the device, and then use it to drain it to empty. Then, recharge it fully again. This helps the battery management system understand the new capacity and provide better charge level estimates.

Factors affecting battery life include screen brightness, media file type (mp3, m4a), storage media type (HDD, SSD, SD), media type technology (mSATA, SDXC UHS-1). Apparently other issues such as a faulty headphone socket may also impact battery life. Battery longevity can be affected by storage temperatures and charging behaviour.
