I have the player about 24 houres,
I fully rechrege and discherge the player two times!
and the battery is very weak, about 3 houres until it shut down!
when it show that the battery is full, after 5 mintues the icon drop one
level.

what can I do with this?
maybe the battery is bad? or 3 houres of playing is normal?

torn22, How long are you charging your player for? Give it 4-5 hours and see if it makes a difference. If the LCD is on all the time it can drain the battery quickly, go to Settings\LCD Set\Darkle, dark or Black (Depending on your player) and set the slider to 15 -30 seconds, then your screen will turn off when playing music. The battery sizes vary between players but you should expect between 5 -8 hrs continuous music play with power saving on and 3- 4 hours Video play.

torn22, Most players are around 200 - 250 mAh but I have seen some 340 and 400 mAh but generally there is not enough space for a battery of this size.
