My Current Setup
Sansa Clip + 8GB Black
Electric Avenues PA2V2
Sony MDR XB700
 
I found this battery and I want to use it for my Sansa Clip +.
I am thinking of opening the clip, and unsoldering the small 230mah lipo cell from its protection board, and then soldering the two wire leads in the picture below to the protection board. This way I can have 25 times the playback time, and a very powerful battery that I am hoping can drive my headphones with out an amp. For fast charging im planning to use a regular lipo charger.

My question, will having this powerful battery help drive the headphones, like my current headphone amp does?
If not, is it possible to mod the player to allow it to take advantage of this more powerful battery!

The nano-core technology in lithium ion batteries is the application of nanometer conductive additives.
 
1) The nanometer conductive additives form ultrastrong electron-conducting networks in the electrodes which can increase electronic conductivity.
2) These additives create a superstrong ability for imbibition in the carrier liquid to supply more ion channels. This improves the ability of ion transmission and ion diffusion.
Through improving electronic conductivity and ion transmission, the impedance is reduced and the polarization of high rate discharge decreases greatly.
 
Advantages over traditional Lipo batteries:
-Power density reaches 7.5 kw/kg.
-Less Voltage sag during high rate discharge, giving more power under load.
-Internal impedance can reach as low as 1.2mΩ compared to that of 3mΩ of a standard Lipoly.
-Greater thermal control, pack usually doesnt exceed 60degC
-Thickness swelling during heavy load doesnt exceed 5%, compared to 15% of a normal Lipoly during heavy load.
-Higher capacity during heavy discharge. More than 90% at 100% C rate.
-Fast charge capable, up to 15C on some batteries.
-Longer Cycle Life, almost double that of standard lipoly technology.

Think of it this way: Does installing a bigger gas tank on a car makes the engine more powerful?
 
The clip was designed to work with the battery it came with. The built in amplifier will bottleneck the power, no mater the capacity of the battery you feed it. Sure it'll last longer, but it won't be more powerful.
 
I don't know if this applies to the Clip, but this is a generally better idea: Get a dedicated amplifier with it's own battery, and only use the line out of the clip. Since the clip doesn't have to power the headphones, it's battery charge should last longer.
