The original iPod battery that comes with your device will eventually lose power and die. Pretty dramatic, isn’t it? Once that happens, you’ll need to get an iPod video battery replacement kit so you can keep the music playing. In the back of your mind, though, you keep saying to yourself “how do I keep this battery as long as I can so I won’t have to change the iPod battery again?”
You can keep scratching your head in wonder, or you can continue reading, and learn how to maximize the life of your new iPod batteries.
TIP #1: Only charge your iPod battery when it needs charging. If possible, allow the battery to drain down before recharging it.
First thing to know is that iPod batteries are considered dead when they can’t hold any kind of charge for any length of time. Now, what causes the demise of an iPod battery? That’s right – charging! The more you charge the battery, the weaker it gets until it can’t do anything any more so you have to change the iPod battery.
TIP #2: Use and enjoy your iPod on a regular basis.
Don’t leave it in the charger for days on end and don’t ever use it for weeks on end. You bought the thing to use and enjoy – so use and enjoy it! This will keep the battery fresh, and save you the hassle of purchasing an iPod mini battery replacement kit too soon.
TIP #3: Don’t overcharge your iPod battery. Once it’s full, unplug it from the charger.
Some people think if you constantly have your iPod battery charging, it will increase battery time and performance. This assumption is incorrect. For further proof of this, the next time you fill up your car, keep filling even after it’s full. And when the gas is pouring out of the tank, fill it up some more. That’s basically what happens when your overcharge your iPod mini battery.
TIP #4: Use the backlight timer or only use the backlight when you need it.
A neat thing about the iPod is its backlight that allows you to see the display screen even in the dark. So why have it on during the day? To conserve your iPod battery use the backlight timer to come on only when you need it. The backlight timer, while useful, can be a huge drain on your iPod batteries.
TIP #5: Store your iPod at room temperature.
Your iPod is a delicate piece of electronic equipment. Would you then store it in a meat locker? Keep your iPod at room temperature to improve battery life. A cold iPod battery slows down the chemical reactions that occur inside the battery that make it work properly. And if your iPod mini battery is too hot, it speeds up the reactions, which drain the battery faster.
Everyone wants to avoid having to change the battery in your iPod, but it’s practically inevitable that you will need to change the battery in your Apple iPod sooner or later.
