The 'on' button can easily be bumped on in luggage; I'd suggest a piece of electrician's tape to keep it turned off if you are really 'out there'CHH Just got back from France: the battery pack worked perfectly & still has the first four AA batteries.
You gotta love the 7-11 School of Design. I bought this, replaced the batteries only once over a 9 day trip and listened to the iPod for hours and hours. I went to England. You can buy AA batteries almost anywhere in the world. What a weight/space/aggravation saver. I wanted to take no AC chargers due to the expense and hassles of travel power adapters. I bought this for my iPod and it ROCKED.
Fantastic for trips, when watching videos. Works great. Able to change batteries with out have to charge anything.
A bit bulky, but who cares if your sitting on a plane for 10 hrs. Lot's of juice for long flights.Buy it if you travel and carry your iPod with you. I have a 5th generation iPod and the package said this battery back-up is not compatable with it. I plugged it in and it worked just fine.
If you have one of these and intend to update your iPod on ITunes you have been warned. I am less than impressed with Apple and their dumb update, I want to find a way where I can revert back to the original version I had. This little battery pack used to be great and did exactly as it described, works excellently on long journeys. Now, here's the RUB, I have a fifth gen 30gb IPOD and I updated it when prompted on iTunes a few weeks ago now when I plug my Maxell battery pack in it says it is now not supported and will not work anymore.
