iPod battery replacements are getting a bad wrap, but this one shouldn't. Another brand recommends disconnecting the hard drive cable, this one doesn't. This cable cannot take the stress of the disconnect. Just follow Premium Power Products instructions, be careful and you'll be fine. Premium Power Products only recommends disconnecting the red and black power cable. This is OK.

My iPod 4G is on its 3rd battery counting the original Apple battery.

I was really pleased about being able to replace my iPod’s battery so easily, but after about ten months this battery started holding a charge for only a couple of hours use. I’m going to probably replace it with the same product but obviously I’m disappointed with my first experience with it.

I just bought this battery on July 20th, probably didn’t install it until about the end of July. Today on September 9th, it’s already dead. So it basically lasted me about 1 month…..that’s pretty bad considering the original lasted around 3 years.

Gought 2 to replace batteries in a 40 GB HP Ipod and a 40 GB Ipod Photo. Both units were starting to shut down a lot and not hold a charge for long. Since replacing with these batteries. More endless hours of Ipod enjoyment.
