Here are some test results on a few old/dead iPods over the weekend.
Tested: Four iPods: two 2003 iPod 15GB and two 2004 iPod Mini.
1. All above mentioned iPods were completely battery depleted and not responding to computer USB charging. None could be turned on. The USB charging cable is verified functional with a brand new 3rd gen iPod nano.
2. Each responded to the IonHub when charger tip iT-371 was plugged in and it started charging immediately.
3. Each took over 6 hours to charge fully.
4. One Mini could be charged now with its original USB cable after recharged by IonHub.
5. All other three can not be charged by their original USB cable via computer anymore.
6. All of them can be charged by IonHub charger.
7. In each the battery run time is not as long as new but still respectable. For example, the 2003 iPod 15 GB can run 6 Hours with max volume output and > 8 hour with 1/2 volume, given this is a four years old unit.
If you have more cases out there, we would appreciate if you could test and share with us your results. We welcome all contributions!

Please count on mine, 2003 iPod 15GB White. Initially, I have to charge it 6 hours twice to full with your charger. I now charge it daily and have not dared to drain the battery after I revived it.
I also helped my friend to revive her Mini a couple of days a ago.
Hi! I'm from the Philippines, is the ionhub charger available here? :)
Hello, Airuh:
IonHub charger is available in the United States shippable worldwide. If you have a friend in the US who can bring it back home to you, it will be much cheaper for the shipping cost is about $30.
Happy Holidays!
