My oakley thump needs the battery changed where do i get one?

you can't change the the memory on the thumps. what you bought is what you have to live with.

Hello,
Your mp3 player uses a built in Lithium Ion Polymer 3.7V 150mAh battery. Theres are not serviceable at home. They need to be sent to Oakley. You won't even find this item on the Oakley page anymore but that e-mail and number is their contact.

• Here is their contact info.

how can i replace my oakley thump 256mb battery? need to replace it because battery last only an hour. please help me..

Hello there :)

Try to chance the battery and see if it helps or read this site :
http://rubensmenswear.com/pages/photographs/oakley/mp3/oakley%20thump%20faqs.htm

The write on the site :
5. I'm sure my THUMP is fully charged, so why doesn't it play music?

• Make sure the volume is not set too low to hear.
  
• Make sure there are song files stored on THUMP. Connect THUMP to your computer and open the folder that shows the contents of the THUMP memory
  
• Make sure you have the correct music file formats loaded into the THUMP memory. Currently, THUMP plays MP3, WMA and WAV file formats. No other music file formats are supported at this time.
  
• Make sure the WMA music files you are trying to play are not protected by DRM. (See below for more information on DRM.) If the song files are protected by DRM, you need to download the DRM Enabled Utility found at www.oakley.com/thump.

6. Why can't I get a full six hours of song play time out of THUMP?

• Many things affect play time, including the volume level, file compression and music file format. Also, lithium ion polymer batteries gradually lose their charge while not in use. These batteries are also susceptible to temperature.
  
• Even though they represent the best technology available, lithium ion batteries do not perform best in high heat.

7. Is it best to completely drain the THUMP battery before recharging?

• It makes no difference. Lithium ion batteries have no "memory effect" like older technologies such as nickel cadmium, so you can charge them at any time - even when they are not fully discharged.

Hope thats helps
If not then try to return here

Please rate my answer :)

While I did try to locate this myself, your best bet is to call the company. There are listings for store locations also.

TROUBLESHOOTING RESETTING OAKLEY THUMP Most problems can be solved by resetting OAKLEY THUMP: • To reset OAKLEY THUMP, hold down the Play / Pause button and the Previous Song / Rewind button at the same time. Resetting OAKLEY THUMP will not erase the songs or files stored in memory. • If the reset procedure does not work, you may need to restore the internal software.

Thanks Chuba

create a playlist in itunes then put the songs you want to add to your Oakleys in that playlist.  Then, burn that playlist to a cd.  after you burn it eject it then re-insert it and transfer the songs from the cd to your itunes...i typically just add them as a new playlist called for my Oakley.  once you do that you can drag those songs to your oakleys...all you are doing is changing the format from m4p which are basically songs you purchase via itunes that are protected for apple products; ipod, etc., to m4a format...you don't have to go thru all that if you didn't purchase the songs via itunes...hope this helps..
