iPod mini battery capacity

(1/1)

Beardy:
Just put Rockbox on my (second-gen) mini today, and noticed there's a setting to specify the battery size used, presumably due to the popularity of replacing the standard 400mAh unit. My problem is that the available sizes only go up to 800mAh, and my aftermarket battery is 1000mAh. I've seen as high as 1100mAh available. Are there any plans to add options for batteries bigger than 800?

michaelc5047:
I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong about this, but as far as I know, the "battery capacity" setting doesn't actually affect the working of Rockbox, just the estimated runtime. I've got a 900mAh battery in my Rockboxed mini with no problems.

Beardy:
Even so. My estimated runtime is miles off the reality, which is quite an annoyance.
