It mights sound strange, but I feel like that would remove the core of what the iPod was. It would certainly be an upgrade, but it somehow feels wrong to me to alter it lol
I modded my dad's iPod 5G with deeper back plate, 3000mA battery and 512Gb of storage. It's absolutely amazing! You can also put a Bluetooth transmitter in there, but I don't think I'll do that.
The battery job seems difficult, but with the right tools, it can be done with minimal dings to the back cover. I bought a brand new in box 7th gen classic and the better swelled after a few months. Thankfully, I caught it in time and replaced it before it destroyed the screen. But I was hella nervous about getting that back cover to come off. Get some guitar picks, an iPod opening tool, and a lot of patience!
I have one like this, too. I mainly use it when plugged into my Yamaha dock or otherwise plugged into the mains. Other than the short battery life, it works very well.
You should do the battery/ssd upgrade, keep it going!

Never thought, I'd see Elitni Odredi on this subreddit. Not my cup of tea, but keep on enjoying them with the iPod!
