Hi, I have a problem with battery in my Sansa Clip +. I charged to full capacity (100% battery status), and every few seconds lose 15-25% battery life. It stops at about 3% and is stable (do not lose it as fast as before). After reconnecting the cable and check out a few seconds later, the battery was 53% (after 10 seconds!). Mp3 player lay unused for a year. It is possible that the battery in my Sansa is empty as hell, so it must charge for a few days or just died, and I can throw my poor Sansa to the trash?
How long does the player run before the battery dies?
10-15 seconds. If i unplug charger, battery state decrease 15-20% per few seconds. And it’s going down to 7-8% and it’s stable (don’t change percent state as previously). And after maybe 20 seconds screen shows “Turning off, battery state low” or something and turn off.
I left Sansa plugged since yesterday, so maybe it will help. I tried with default Sandisk firmware and rockbox and it’s no diffrent 
Try giving it a long charge with a usb cell phone charger. See if that helps.
