MCMConcepts 2000mAh Square Battery Replacement for iPod Video/Classic Thin 5th-7th Gen

I used this battery as part of a restoration/upgrade project and was very pleased with the outcome. It fits great with the iflash solo. The combination go together like they were made for each other. It doesn’t include any tape or anything so I just used a couple small pieces of electrical tape to hold it in place on the back cover. The ribbon cable looks basically identical to the factory cable and leaves plenty of room for the install, so not sure what the other reviews were talking about. Performance seems to be great. After having it installed for a few days now the battery percentage hasn’t dropped at all. It still shows full charge. I think I’ll probably be able to go a full month without charging if need be and listening 1-2 hours per day. Take your time and get everything in order and test the function of everything before you click it all back together because you will scratch the cover if you have to take it back apart once installed. For those wondering, I also used an anodized blue aluminum front cover, iflash solo, and a Lexar pro full size sd card. The headphones are Koss kph40 with green Yaxi pads. Stock firmware was pretty easy to install. I purchased my USB-C to 30 pin from Kabeldirekt on Amazon. Charging these devices can be tricky. I found that getting a Plugable USB Data Blocker and a USB-C to USB-A adapter worked for charging. It also charges when plugged into my MacBook Air via the 30 pin USB-C cable. Overall, I am well pleased with the final product and thankful it turned out so nicely. Just be patient when ordering parts and assembling everything and you should be left with a nice little iPod in the end.

Fantastic replacement. Cable is the original size but because the battery is larger, it ends up being too long. Pretty easy fix for anyone who has ever worked in a device, just fold part of the long cable over onto itself, and give it a loose crease. Do not crease it hard or you likely will break the internal copper traces in the ribbon. I also used some double sided adhesive to get it to stick better where the only battery was. Fit perfectly with a thin 7th Gen using an imcort dual micro SD adapter for the drive replacement. I got over 60 hours of continuous music playback before it finally gave up (I had to go to bed so not sure on the exact, but I sent to bed with 8% left at the 60 hour mark) Works perfectly, and seems to hold a charge pretty well. Just don't trust the percentage in rockbox, it's rarely accurate and it's more an estimate

Fit perfectly in my 5.5 ipod with the i flash solo. Hardly need to charge my ipod after several days of use!

Battery fit perfectly in my iPod 5th gen, but there is one issue, The 2000mAh description is misleading, the battery is actually around 1000mAh, which i estimated by it's dimensions. This is just a Lithium polymer battery.

This battery actually works and it last for hours. The setup was a bit tricky, but gotten used to it. I bought a 3800 thick battery from the same seller and it blocked the rewind & fast-forward button and I accidentally broke the flex cable in the process of fixing it up and I accidentally made my OEM battery a spicey pillow, so it's all my mistakes. I ordered it and installed it into my now modified iPod classic 5.5th gen and it actually works. Turns on like normal and it does what it said. To install this; it'll take research of repairing skills, patience, and a lot of carefullness. Pry off the backplate, slide this under the flex cables of the lock switch & headphone jack, use painter's tape to make it stay in place, carefully slide it in the brown interlocker slot by the charging port, and done. It also fits well, unlike the 3800 thick one as memtioned earlier.

Switched out my old iPod battery with this one. It fit great with no problems. The battery life lasts long and the installation was easy. Would recommend.

Excellent product, fit perfectly in my Ipod 7th Classic in combination with my iflash Solo. The battery lasts a significant long time, I am going well over a well with light/moderate use and have roughly 40% battery power left.

Battery was packaged very carefully. The battery itself looked good and after installation it worked without issue.

Excelente producto
