Topic: how to have a succesful battery swap with iriver h120

[deadheadcorey]

I gotta get a new battery for the h120 and I want to make sure it goes succesful. I was reading that I need to make sure in roxbox to change the battery settings?

Any help would be great, thanks

Before I put the new battery in, do I need to go into Roxbox settings, batteries and change the mAH first?

It's much trickier than most people think--tight fitting parts and fragile connections=lots of busted irivers (like my 140)

What he said.  The battery connector is a pain, especially if you have to do the polarity switch.  Be very careful not to over-tighten any screws putting it back together.

If you shave the molex connector on the new battery it makes it much easier, but the battery swap is alittle more work than a CFmod.

The settings in rockbox only affect the estimate of the battery  life per charge. Not required at all...
