Hey,

Thanks for the other links as $25 is too much for a stupid battery.

[Mikeshappy]

I totally agree zire71man.

Razoff - Your awesome. Thanks.

[mclien]

Just to get this clear: Yes I still make the Backplate/Battery modifications.
After that you have 650mAH for your Abacus/Fossil.
Just send PM, if your interested

Oh and btw: 130mAh is less than the orignal one, which was allready to weak.

Does the battery on eBay has lead wires ships with?

[Dragon_fist]

Hi, why nobody say here, that 300mAh and battery with bigger capacity you must recharge 3 x more that my battery, because the recharge current in watch is very low.The battery recharge is recommended to 6-8 hours...so you will recharge Ipod battery 18-24 hours and more. And the Ipod battery is bigger that mine (my battery is made by original specification ) and the cover of battery is more up and after goes dust and some dirt inside the watch..and it can be problem for electronics inside (moustly display connection). So you can make some steps like the plastic plate...you can see on the pictures the hole between cover and watch. My battery is for the people, who want original design of watch without complications of installation :-) )) Have a nice day Dragon_fist

[Razoff]

so you will recharge Ipod battery 18-24 hours and more.

Renixa. Nonsense. I charge my Fossil with Ipod battery 4-6 hours. It's normal.

No, of course.

BTW, do I have to do backplate mods?
And can you make an English version of that tutorial? Really appreciate.

1) No, original backplate is enough.
2) I'm too lazy to make English version. But i think photos are enough. There are no difficulties to replace battery. Any way you can translate it to english (http://www.online-translator.com/Default.aspx?prmtlang=en, for examlpe).

What are the values of volts of fully charged and threshold?

[Razoff]

Resco Explorer displays:
Current: 4.32
Warn: 3.65
Critical: 3.6

[raidentony]

Seems that my battery has the same numbers, but why it can only last for 1 day and a half? even w/ very few use

1) Which battery? Original PowerCellCorea or Ipod Shuffle?
2) How old is it? If more then 2 years, then it's normal. LiIon batteries are dying itself.

Ipod battery and it's a brand new one.

[mclien]

adjust contrast, chose the shortest time to switch back to sleep mode.
And "brand new" to some sellers perhaps means "I never touched it since it was delivered 2 Years ago" ...

Hello everyone! I successfully translated the battery replacement guide (originally in Russian), since there were none available. By translating it, I noticed that some steps are not illustrated, and are very useful for battery fitting inside the Abacus; therefore, I recommend to read it, paying special attention to the non-illustrated steps. Feel free to MP me for the translated document!
