Product Description
Compared to the original battery that came in your iPod mini, our 600 mAh 3.7-volt Lithium-Ion battery provides 7 to 10 hours of playtime between charges. This is a conservative estimate, as we'd rather under-promise and then over-deliver (that being said, we regularly receive feedback from our customers reporting even longer playtimes). This robust battery is 100 percent compatible with your iPod mini and is guaranteed to last for one full year. Also included is the iOpener, a fantastic tool that opens your iPod mini without scratching it. This durable plastic tool has a sharp, wedge-shaped tip that's perfect for slipping into the tight seam between the white end caps and the metal casing, and has a long handle that allows you to firmly grasp the tool. Other companies suggest using a metal screwdriver (please don't do this!) or saddle you with two cheap, light-blue tools that are so flimsy, the tip bends and quickly becomes worthless. And then what do you do? Only iPodJuiceDotCom has the iOpener to efficiently open your device. Also included is a set of mini screwdrivers to remove two small screws and a metal clip from inside the player. This kit also includes a set of the most detailed instructions available today. Our printed instructions include professionally-taken, color photographs with detailed text that walk you step-by-step through the battery replacement process. Other companies have you go it alone or give a black-and-white photocopy with fuzzy photos that fail to point out areas where additional caution is needed.

 Great way to save the iPod mini !!! February 13, 2007
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
My daughter has the iPod mini--I have little to do with it. When she told me it needed a new battery, my reply was: "What type does it use?" I thought it was a cell battery; that's how much I know about iPods. In short, after online research I discovered the battery replacement wasn't going to be that easy. I also looked to see how much it would cost to purchase a new iPod that was equivalent to hers because the iPod mini has been discontinued. After the sticker shock, I decided it was worth trying to replace the battery--especially since she had taken incredibly good care of her iPod; not even a scratch.
After researching all the kits and batteries, I ordered the one from iPodJuice that came with all the tools. You have the option of replacing your own battery or sending it in. In fact, they have a deal where you can order the battery kit and if you find it is too difficult, you still can send it to them with the battery for the replacement work. I felt that even if I screwed it up, I still would have to purchase a new iPod for my daughter. Since I had an Amazon.com gift card, I actually got the kit for free, so,I really had nothing to loose by trying.
I received the kit promptly and I read the instructions a couple of times BEFORE I began the work. I followed the instructions exactly and slowly took my time. Everything was explained, step by step. Honestly, it was scary and I was nervous; especially seeing how compact everything inside the unit was. But, after following all steps, my daughter turned it on and IT WORKED!!! We let the battery charge overnight and it has worked fine ever since. In my case, I was able to save myself hundreds of dollars for a new ipod and she was able to keep her beloved mini--for free and in less than an hour of my time. If I were critical of anything, it is that the iPod products are made so small that the design makes battery replacement too complicated.
I got my ipod mini back! May 20, 2008

I ordered an ipod mini battery from Osprey-Talon...
The battery works great! After replacing the battery,
my ipod is as good as new! I don't have to charge
the ipod every night... my old battery couldn't hold charge
overnight even if it wasn't used at all...
Now I charge once, and can use the ipod for several days.
I haven't exactly tested how long a single charge lasts,
but I can tell you it's definitely 7+ hours... a significant
improvement over 2 hours I was getting before.
The last reviewer mentioned about poor instructions...
I never bothered to look at the instructions that came
with the battery. I just went to CNet and found
an instruction there. The whole process took maybe
10 minutes... took 3 minutes to pry open the case and
slide the motherboard out. 1 minute to replace the battery.
6 minutes to slide the motherboard back into its case...
that turned out to be a bit tricky. But overall, the whole
process was pretty easy, with minimal damage to the
exterior case (a bit of scratches from prying open the case).
This battery comes with two screwdrivers, a flat head for
prying open the top and bottom part of the case,
and a phillips head for the screws.
Excellent Product and Support. March 26, 2007

I ordered this battery because I thought my iPod Mini was having problems because of a bad battery. However, it turns out that it wasn't my battery, but some other more serious problem with my iPod. No worries, because the support from ipodjuice was excellent. I called them over the phone and spoke to a live person. I didn't want to return it right away, because I wanted to make sure that it wasn't the battery that was causing my iPod to have problems. So they sent me another battery just to make sure. Since I tried two new batteries, I'm now 100% sure that it wasn't battery (It's most likely the hard drive has gone bad). So I called them again and I was able to send it all back in the return envelope that they sent me. The people over the phone were very nice and helpful and the whole process was completely painless and hassle free.
As for the product itself, also very good. The tools did the job without damaging or scratching my iPod at all. The iOpener is made from some pretty strong plastic and the two screwdrivers are magnetic, so no problems losing screws. They're also the right size, so no stripped screws either. Opening the Ipod, replacing the battery, and putting it all back together took only a few minutes. Excellence price and it shipped on time. I would highly recommend this product to anyone who needs to replace a battery for their iPod Mini.

if your ipod mini battery won`t last more than 1 hour. this product is your ticket for 6-8 hrs non stop music playing. It`s so easy to replace and the instructions are pretty clear step by step with the right tools. The only thing was that it didn`t show on how to open the seamsless metal cover ipod mini. once I found out(google) putting the battery was simple.
I was about toss my Ipod until I installed new battery May 11, 2007

I give it 5 stars. i was ready toss 4 gig mini ipod, until i purchased new battery. I agree it can be a little dificult to open the ipod mini, but it was worth it. I finally listen to my tunes for more than 5 minutes which was all the orginally battery played. I believe on the first full charge I got 7 hours, but can 't be sure I am still to overwhelmed that it doesn't die after 10 minutes.
