It matches OEM part numbers 616-0150 and 616-0548. When the original cell degrades and the player fails to hold a charge, this replacement restores full power capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eiPod shuffle 4th and 5th generation fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both generations share the same internal PCB layout, connector pinout, and BMS handshake protocol. One cell covers both platforms without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell through charge cycles on a 5th generation unit. The BMS accepted the cell without error flags and completed full charge cycles at the expected termination voltage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-swap charging protocol:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After installing a new cell, connect the iPod to iTunes via USB before attempting playback. The shuffle's firmware re-reads the cell state on the first USB handshake and sets the charge baseline — skipping this step can leave the capacity indicator miscalibrated from the first use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the iPod shuffle won't wake after sitting unused for months\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe shuffle's BMS enters deep-discharge lockout when cell voltage drops below approximately 2.5V during extended storage. In this state, the player shows no response to the power switch. The fix is to connect the player to a USB power source and leave it for at least 30 minutes before attempting to power on — this allows the trickle pre-charge circuit to bring the cell back above the BMS re-enable threshold of around 3.0V.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBattery percentage jumping erratically after a cell swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe iPod shuffle uses a voltage-threshold method to estimate charge level — it does not track coulombs. After fitting a new cell, the firmware's stored voltage-to-percentage map no longer matches the new cell's discharge curve. This causes the indicator to jump or read incorrectly during the first few cycles. Run two to three full charge and full discharge cycles through iTunes-connected USB to let the firmware recalibrate the thresholds against the new cell's actual voltage profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43381336080474,"sku":"BWCS-IPSF5SL-1","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43381336113242,"sku":"BWCS-IPSF5SL-2","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43381336146010,"sku":"BWCS-IPSF5SL-3","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-IPSF5SL-1.webp?v=1778899987","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/apple-ipod-shuffle-5th-replacement-battery-37v-50mah-li-polymer","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
