New iPod Battery
« on: November 26, 2007, 06:36:22 PM »
I just bought a new 1200mah battery so I could have a longer iPod life and I went through the RockBox settings to set it to 1200mah but when I go into the RockBox Info area it still says 100% with 4h 49min when I fully charged it, that is the same amount that I got on the old 750mah battery. Am I not understanding something about batteries or is this a bug? Also it looks like whenever I set it to 1200mah it seems to have 700mah highlighted when I go back into that menu. Thanks.

EDIT: I should probably mention that it is a iPod Photo 4G.

This is now fixed. It started working with build 15825 and works on the current build now. Thanks to whoever fixed this :)

Okay, but please modify your post if no one has replied.

Also, you shouldn't rely on the runtime estimate too much as it's known to be not very  accurate.
