Date: Wed, 30 May 2007 10:07:27 -0400 Hi everyone, I'm using Rockbox on my 5.5G iPod video, and frankly, while I love Rockbox, I can't stand the fact that the battery drains so quickly that I have to scramble for the charger on an almost daily basis. I know part of the reason is because a lot of power management hasn't been optimized for Rockbox quite yet, but another part is because of that weaksauce 400 mAh battery that Apple used for it. I wanted to know if there's a nice, higher capacity battery that'll fit the iPod video, and give me longer playing time. I don't like that I'm getting just under 4 hours on normal use with my iPod; although with recent builds, it's stretching to about closer to 5 hours. And good suggestions for a better battery? Thanks!
