    Hi habrozhitel!

    Today, the Chinese player purchased on Ebay fell into the hands of. I decided to get acquainted with his insides. I think that the Chinese put it there, that it even reproduces sound and can work autonomously for as long as 2 hours? Initially, I planned to tell only about his “nutrition”, but I will tell everything in order.
    So let's go (a small photo report, traffic) ...

    Auction lot - Chinese clone Ipod Nano. Case was included.
    It looks like: The

    manufacturer writes that "on board" 8GB + all sorts of "features" such as the ability to view videos, photos, etc. Instead of the declared 8GB, we have about 1.8GB (somewhere I “google” that they are reflashing the memory controller), I checked it using a special utility.

    I will not talk much about its capabilities. In general, the sound reproduction quality is terrible, the build quality too. You yourself can read on the forums what the owners write.
    He looked at him for a long time, and decided to start disassembling it. I did not find a small screwdriver, I took a knife. I unscrewed 2 bolts from the bottom:

    Then I saw a small battery. I thought - “It can’t be enough for a couple of hours of operation of the device!”

    It turned out that it performs similar functionality, like the battery in a computer.

    For a long time I could not stretch the insides. Then he threw up and everything jumped out.

    On the reverse side, we can see different marked "pieces of iron" and finally - the battery.

    The assemblers apparently did not have the screw to fasten the upper left corner of the board to the plastic frame. I immediately remembered the Kansky Lions advertisement when the guys watched the championship and twisted the yacht.

    He was hard-coded during the disassembly, he decided to check its performance. He was still alive.

    Here it is shown that he can:

    By the way, the screen is color.

    The battery was glued with a piece of adhesive tape:

    And finally, the most interesting!
    The battery, as they wrote on the forums, is a piece of foil wrapped in another piece of foil.
    I carefully opened it. I was afraid that they wouldn’t pour / pour poison there - for the curious. After opening, there was a sharp smell of “Moment” glue (I hope you know this smell).

    In fact, there was something inside that looked like ordinary polyethylene and graphite coated polyethylene. See for yourself. Can you determine ?!

    And at the end, the present is some kind of “golden thing”:

    After disassembling and photographing this “super battery”, I immediately disposed of it and washed my hands thoroughly.
    As a result, we have a bunch of different trash:

    It still remains a mystery to me - “How does it work?” (I'm talking about the battery). Going to watch Discovery ...
