iPod Mini Battery Replacement

Li-ion batteries are ideal for all electronic devices requiring a reliable, high-energy power source. Things like cellular phones, PDAs, laptops, and MP3 players all benefit with these great new batteries.

Li-ion batteries produce the same amount of energy as Ni-MH but they weigh approximately 20 to 35 percent less. Li-ion batteries are very environmentally friendly since they don't contain bad toxins such as cadmium or mercury to pollute our worlds landfills.

They are powerful and lightweight, they do not exhibit any memory problem and can be recharged anytime without first having to be completely discharged like the old Ni-Cad.

The worst enemy of your new battery is heat. These batteries should be kept cool. They age faster at higher temperatures, so keep them as cool as possible when not in use. They can even be safely stored in your refrigerator which is the best for prevention of aging, but never put them in the freezer It won't kill them but there not good with really cold temperatures.

The Li-ion battery in your iPod should never be discharged below a certain point, because then the battery will be damaged irreversibly. Almost all the devices that use these batteries have a built in monitor system to shut everything down when the charge level hits that minimum threshold. That is why these batteries have three wires.
