tes Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Hello guys, it is really useful to have a thumbdrive function on the E01X series. Want to ask if the battery dies after few years, for example we cannot on the player to play music. But can we still use it as a thumbdrive or not.

0 AntiPod Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 it will probably act as a thumbdrive aft the battery dies, and that's what im planning to do with my E005 xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 cool_rock Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 well if u be carefull and use to charge the player only when its battery is low or it stop playing. or untill low battery appears. well if u follow it then sony battery is very tough and no longer to worry. well battery have 500 times of charge and discharge cycles. and u bettery set u r player to super power save mode. so that it have more playback time. i think so nwe01x series have more battery strong than even nwe005 well they r improving day by day their battery and u should only use recommended headphones of sony with it. so that their have been no burden on battery.

On LiIon batteries, frequent partial discharges and recharges are recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 cool_rock Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 well u r right every walkman and electronic componet has lithuim ion battery. and it is good practice to charge and discharge it fully so that it remains on top. well i m using nwe005 for 4 months and icharge it only when its low appears and my battery is working like a chram i am able to get 30 hrs of mp3 and 10 hrs of fm. well hope so it will last more than my bean than i will switch on to nwe01x series.

0 veggiemusician Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 No with lithuim ion its best not to fully disscharge it - you will get better battery life if you keep topping it up - ie 55% left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 tes Posted July 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 I read somewhere that lithium ion batteries need not wait for it to fully discharge.Back to topic, thats to say we cannot use the player as thumb drive when the battery is dead after about 500 cycles of charging. Then the salesman gave me wrong information, he say the player has a flash memory inside and can use as thumbdrive after battery dies.
