Yes you can change an iPod battery

Submitted by IkeD on Mon, 02/16/2009 - 10:31pm.

If you send your iPod to Apple to get the battery replaced, it can cost from $59 to $79 to replace it and another $29.95 for shipping and handling. That is quite expensive.

Its best to do it yourself and save some money. It isn't hard to do, costs less and take 5 minutes of your time.

You can get an iPod battery replacement kit for less than $15. They come with the battery and special tools to open up the iPod.

[3/1/09 note from Kerry: Refer to our partners banner above for iPod battery kit. They have in stock.]
