So I still have my OG iPod from years ago. I think I got the thing when I was 12 or something. I had been using it on and off for years but the battery stopped working so I could only use it when it is plugged in. Now it won't even turn on. I plug it in and it just acts like it is booting up but never does.

I am considering replacing the battery but idk how hard it is. I see I can get a battery for as low as $10 and that beats buying another old gen ipod. Anyone have experience with this? Is it doable for someone that never did something like this before?

I ended up getting a battery. I want to see if I can do it myself. I mean I should learn the basics for stuff like this if possible. I saw a few videos and it seems easy. If I can't manage I will look into an option like this.

So I struggled a bit with this. It took me awhile to get it open and I scratched the side a bit but once I got it open, it was super easy to change out the batter. Took me like a minute to do. It is back to working and seems like it will hold a good charge!
