Hi ehjie,
I'm very interested in changing the battery on the DX220 because mine only has 4/5h maximum autonomy and it's really annoying to have to recharge the DAP every time I come back home after work or a walk, so I'd like to know how many hours of autonomy you get on your DX220 after the battery change.
Thanks in advance

PS: Excuse me if my English seems a bit weird because I use a translator

Bon jour @Audiocratie
Here's what I've learned so far on the Losoncoer battery.
1 hr. = 70% charged, 2 hrs=fully charged, first time re-charge.
With this condition, I played back 27% depletion in an hour! It's not so looking good.
I had to "properly" charge @ 8 hours charging time in order to assess a proper back up time duration.
If the condition above remains constant, I will buy a new battery from Ibasso...

Bad Battery
NOT RECOMMENDED! Don't buy this brand.
It's constant @ 27-30% depletion in one hour.
I'm buying from Ibasso...

Re-bonjour ehjie
Thanks for the quick answer and for the information, I hope for you that the battery consumption will stabilize after a few charging cycles.
For my part I think I will order an official battery from Ibasso as Octavius mentioned and avoid wasting time and money by buying a dubious battery on Ali

I am ordering from Ibasso as well.
I just tried from another source, in the hope of getting a better back up time. I can't win all the time.
Oh well, ces't la vie...

Here is a post I made earlier in this thread regarding the stock battery with dimensions and pictures: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/dx2...9-now-available-and-dc01.898388/post-15632976

Of course - if you are getting your replacement from iBasso it will be the correct one!

Cheers,
Tim

 

[ehjie]

Ordered!

I re-installed the old original Ibasso battery yesterday. Still a good 4.5 - 5 hrs compared to the under specd ali battery.
Will just wait for the new original battery...

Hi guys,
To order the DX220 battery do you have to contact Ibasso support directly ?
Because I can't find any link to any battery on their website or better if you have a direct link to the battery it would be nice Cheers

Got a problem I can use some help with.

Is there any reason why an amp module won't work with the DX220 other than it being a bad module?
I got a new Amp 8 module for my 220 and it does nothing. The 220 functions fine but I get no output at all. Bad module? Or something else I can check?
Running latest firmware 1.19.294

Thanks

 

[CobraMan]

I am guessing you have tried to remove and reinstall the amp module (with the DX220 off) - correct? From there - have you tried a factory reset?

Short of those things you could send an email to Paul (check the first post of this thread in his signature for that) and seek additional help or contact whoever you bought it from for a replacement.

Anyone else have ideas?

Cheers,
Tim

Haven't tried a reset. But yes, I did install with 220 powered off. Tried several times. Guess I should try a reset. I do have an exchange for replacement set up.

Thanks

Edit. Factory reset was a no go. I have a replacment on the way. Hopefully it's just a faulty Amp8.

And here we go obsolescence... you buy a device as top tier and 2 years later it’s out of phase.. that’s life I know but it’s frustrating when you don’t earn a lot of money and you save it for some gear and later on it’s half priced but well, again, that’s life..
