When you purchase an ipod nano or any other ipod you want to be listening to it as much as possible. This means you don’t want to be recharging your ipod nano battery all the time. In order for this not to happen one must follow some useful tips that will increase playtime.
This means increasing the amount you can use your ipod, and decreasing the number of times you must recharge your ipod nano battery. Two useful tips will be covered, with the purpose of increasing your playtime for your ipod nano.
The first tip that will be covered has to do with the backlight of the ipod. The backlight gives you a great enhancement for your iPod but eats up a lot on your battery charge. Having your backlight of your ipod nano on unnecessarily will cause your battery to loose charge quickly. Thus making you charge your ipod nano battery most of the time and lesser playtime you can get from it. In order to prevent this from happening you can set the backlight to only be on for a couple of seconds. Also you can just completely turn it off when it is not needed, especially in a bright environment or during the daytime. If you are using your ipod nano during the daytime and there is sufficient sunlight that allows you to see the ipod screen, then there is no need to have the backlight on.
How to turn off the backlight option? Go to your options and turn off the backlight. When it is nighttime or its starting to get dark you can go and switch your backlight to be on. When you do this you can set it so it will only be on a certain amount of time and after that time has past and there is no activity it will shut off. Doing this with your backlight or your ipod nano will help increase the life of your ipod nano battery, and it will increase your playtime. At the same time your need to recharge the battery will be decreased.
Another common thing that causes your battery to loose its charge over time is recharging your battery unnecessarily. Often people will charge their ipod nano battery every night and during the day they barely used their ipod. This is why it is good to charge your battery when it is fully discharged, or as close as possible to being nearly discharged. When you charge your battery all the time with most of its charge left, this will decrease your battery lifetime overtime. This means that you will have to charge it more and more often as time passes. In order to postpone this as much as possible, charge your battery when it is fully discharged.
If you follow the above tips you will increase your playtime and overall battery life. Remember to only have the backlight on when necessary. When charging your ipod nano battery make sure it is fully discharged or really close to being completely discharged. Following these two tips will have you jamming more to your tunes, rather than charging your ipod nano battery often.
