I bought it because I will be traveling to Europe in September and want to be able to view movies and listen to music without concern for battery life and this seemed like the ticket. If after traveling, I see any problems, I'll come back and revise this review. The small amount I've used it already shows me that it's just what I wanted. This is a simple, easy to use device that adds many hours of play time to your iPod using 4 standard AA batteries.
This product comes up with the search terms "iPod touch battery backup" but is NOT compatible with that unit.Beware.
Called Amazon, they quickly sent me a return label. Thanks Still searching for a good solution that uses disposable batteries that work with the IPod Touch 3G.If anyone knows of a good solution please comment. Shipping was very fast, put the 4 AA batteries in, My Ipod Touch 3G was at about 90% discharged, plugged it in, Ipod Touch gave me a message that it is not a support accessory.
Of course it's too late to return it. I really want to buy another one because in all other respects this battery pack was just great, but I don't want to because this really didn't last as long as it should have under the gentle treatment I gave it. And now it's bad and useless after under 3 months. Well, that's what happened to this, except I treated the wire like a king, very gentle, precisely because I was afraid of it going bad. You know how sometimes a badly treated wire goes bad so it only works when you hold or kink it just so. What is it with iPod accessories that they go bad so quickly. I bought this in mid-Feb, received in late Feb, used maybe once a week until the last couple days.
but for some reason once the screen went away i still had a lonnnng battery in the middle of my movie it would say that the device could not support the ipod. this was the greatest purchase ever until some random screen started to pop up.
