need help: external batteries for iPods

Ok, I'm having trouble deciding which one to get. It's either the Tekkeon myPower or the Belkin TunePower.

Tekkeon:

Belkin:

The Belkin has 8-10 hours of extra life while the Tekkeon gets about 20, that's not hard to decide but what makes it hard for me is that I like the design of the Belkin more than I do the Tekkeon, I think the Tekkeon looks too chunky, yet it has a longer battery life, but I like the Belkin because it looks smaller, and is a more reputable company. Help anyone? Which should I get?

As long as you charge it every night, isn't the stock battery sufficient? I mean doesn't it last like 10 hours the way it comes from the factory?

I have a 3rd generation iPod with a depleted battery.

You can replace the internal battery fairly cheaply/easily.

For all your ipod needs(in the annoying commercial guy voice) visit http://forums.ilounge.com/ ! Good luck, check out the accesories forum, etc.

my sister has the belkin one, its nice an i think it uses suction pads to hold onto the 'pod. i'd choose the belkin over the tekkinmajiggy any day.

I have a 3rd gen 15gb, with the stock battery, I cannot go an 5-7 hours of music while at work. 10 hours is if you start the ipod and NEVER press any other buttons.

hey roundhead,
(sorry that sounds soo wrong) I really like the belkin tunepower. It has a plastic case that squeezes over the ipod. It still fits into a shirt pocket easily, which i like.

im aiming towards the Belkin as well.

don't forget! the tunepower charges off of Firewire.

yea, im aware of that, i have plenty of firewire ports on my new PC

hell ya... you're set now. btw I just ordered my 60gb black ipod, the 15gb isn't enough holding power.
