From: Hussein Patwa <hspatwa_at_talktalk.net>
Date: Thu, 14 Feb 2008 09:36:05 -0000 Hello, I actually noticed the 89% issue yesterday as I made a point of checking the battery life before I started playing. I had charged the iPod from the USB port for about 3 hours beforehand. I disabled the EQ, crossfeed and dithering and got about 90 minutes of listening before I decided to turn in for the night. Battery level at that time was 62%. H. -----Original Message----- Regarding battery life I noticed if I have 89% after a full charge if I play the Ipod for say about ten minutes and turn it off and turn it back on the battery life percentage drops considerably to something like 72%. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kane Brolin" <kbrolin65_at_gmail.com> To: "Rockbox" <rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se> Sent: Thursday, February 14, 2008 5:48 AM Subject: Re: iPod Video 30GB Battery Life > Hello to Hussein and all other contributors. > > I personally get slightly more than eight hours of battery life out of > my own 30 GB fifth generation iPod.
