Just got back from France: the battery pack worked perfectly & still has the first four AA batteries. The 'on' button can easily be bumped on in luggage; I'd suggest a piece of electrician's tape to keep it turned off if you are really 'out there'CHH
What a weight/space/aggravation saver. You gotta love the 7-11 School of Design. I bought this for my iPod and it ROCKED. I bought this, replaced the batteries only once over a 9 day trip and listened to the iPod for hours and hours. I went to England. I wanted to take no AC chargers due to the expense and hassles of travel power adapters. You can buy AA batteries almost anywhere in the world.
Able to change batteries with out have to charge anything. Works great. Fantastic for trips, when watching videos.
I plugged it in and it worked just fine. A bit bulky, but who cares if your sitting on a plane for 10 hrs. I have a 5th generation iPod and the package said this battery back-up is not compatable with it. Lot's of juice for long flights.Buy it if you travel and carry your iPod with you.
Now, here's the RUB, I have a fifth gen 30gb IPOD and I updated it when prompted on iTunes a few weeks ago now when I plug my Maxell battery pack in it says it is now not supported and will not work anymore. If you have one of these and intend to update your iPod on ITunes you have been warned. This little battery pack used to be great and did exactly as it described, works excellently on long journeys. I am less than impressed with Apple and their dumb update, I want to find a way where I can revert back to the original version I had.
