Apple only claimed longer movie playback, never claimed longer music playback with the 5.5th gen over the 5th gen.  That right there pretty much answers the question if there is a battery difference.  Pretty strongly points the finger at display, back light, or possibly Broadcomm firmware.

dannyboi:
In your experience, what is the optimal mah setting for the Ipod 5.5G 80GB?

Having it as 650mah, I've found that the battery indicator drops by 10% every few minutes of listening, which seems somewhat weird.

I set it at 1000mah, but I don't really know what this means in my situation.

GodEater:
Please re-read BigBambi's post above.
