Sonnet announces new high-capacity iPod replacement batteries
Posted by Helper Monkey
Sonnet has announced a new series of replacement batteries for most versions of Apple’s iPod music players. Owners of 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th generation iPods, as well as the iPod mini, can purchase new batteries capable of providing up to a 78% increase over the stock battery which shipped with the unit. Sonnet ships the batteries in a kit which includes all the tools need to replace the battery yourself, as well as an instructional video demonstrating the procedure. The replacement of the battery will void any warranty you may have with Apple, however odds are if you are replacing the battery, your iPod is out of warranty anyway. Prices are extremely reasonable at $39.95 for the 1st and 2nd gen iPods, and only $29.95 for 3rd and 4th gen, and iPod minis.
Apple has its own iPod Out-of-warranty Battery Replacement Program, however they charge $65.95 per iPod, and you will get a battery with less charge than those offered by Sonnet.
