Battery Fix

Will a battery pack fix a 1st gen ipod shuffle with a dead battery? or do I just need to install a new battery?

I have an 1st gen i-pod shuffle and I’ve been looking on eBay for a new battery (which requires soldering) but they also sell battery packs. Will a battery pack rejuvenate a dead battery or is it just used for extending the life of a good battery?

It won’t rejuvenate your dead battery, and it might actually make the battery pack die twice faster.

If you have a Batteries Plus near by ( http://www.batteriesplus.com ) they might have a new battery and I believe they will install if for you.

Otherwise, there is ipodjuice.com , You Can send them your ipod shuffle and they will replace the battery for you.
