Restore your iconic click-wheel iPod to its original portable glory with this high-grade 650mAh Thin Profile replacement battery. Designed to perfectly match the original stock dimensions and factory capacity, this lithium-ion polymer cell resolves common ageing battery issues, including rapid power drain, freezing on boot, or the dangerous swelling that causes "The Black Spot" on your display.
This is a direct-fit, drop-in replacement part featuring the correct factory pressure-fit flex connector. No soldering required.
Key Features & Specs
• Capacity: 650mAh / 3.7V / 2.41Wh
• Cell Type: High-Quality Lithium-ion Polymer (Thin profile footprint)
• Installation Type: Plug-and-Play pressure clip connector (Zero soldering required)
• Safety Integrated: Equipped with an upgraded internal Protection Circuit Module (PCM) to prevent overcharging, voltage spikes, and thermal swelling.
📦 Exact Model Compatibility
This 650mAh battery is explicitly designed for the "Thin" case variants of the following models:
• iPod 5th / 5.5 Generation Video: 30GB Models Only (Model: A1136)
• iPod 6th Generation Classic: 80GB / 120GB Models (Model: A1238)
• iPod 7th Generation Classic: 160GB Late-2009 Thin Model (Model: A1238)
⚠️ Compatibility Note & Flash Mod Tip
This battery will plug into and function perfectly fine in "Thick" backplate models (like the 5th Gen 60GB/80GB or the early 6th Gen 160GB), but it is optimised to securely fit the factory spacing of the Thin-profile casings. If you are doing a flash-storage upgrade, take a look at our 2000mAh square batteries as these are the perfect size to maximise battery capacity!
