Most folks could assume that the batteries will simply last eternally, because they're permanently attached to the interior of the iPod. Now, this presumption is wrong on two levels. On one level, the Li-ion iPod battery that's inside your iPod can be removed and substituted with an iPod battery replacement kit. Secondly, even though the battery never truly goes out from the interior of the device, that doesn't mean that the battery will last forever.

Now, since we are now aware of the fact that the battery won't last forever, we need to ready ourselves of a few of the tips and tricks that can be utilised in order to extend and improve the lifespan of the new iPod battery.

TIP 1: Don't overcharge the battery

WHY: Overcharging the battery can damage the Li-ion iPod battery itself.

EXPLANATION: With nowhere to store or displace the energy, the battery will get damaged as it seeks to keep charging even when it's full.

TIP 2: Keep your iPod at room temperature only

WHY: Temperature plays a critical role in the function of the iPod battery

EXPLANATION: Chemical reactions happen inside the Li-ion iPod battery, and it is those chemical reactions that make the battery properly operate. If the temperature is excessively cold, then the reactions decelerate. And those reactions will also accelerate if the temperature is too hot.

TIP 3: solely charge the iPod battery when it's required

WHY: Charging up the battery in reality weakens it at the same time

EXPLANATION: Each time you reload the Li-ion iPod mini battery, the total charge capability of the battery dwindles ever so slightly. By solely charging the battery when called for, you are ensuring that the battery only loses its charge capability when it has to.

TIP 4: Use your iPod on a self-consistent base

WHY: Holding it inactive dulls the battery

EXPLANATION: If you never use your iPod, the device and the battery itself can simply wear down and die. Using them regularly can maintain them both fresh and operating.
