Before going deeper into maybe board repair I would buy an iFixit battery. They are awesome and it is a great way to make sure that is not the problem.

@vito1111 There are lots of people who will claim to make legitimate or "OEM" parts. There's no telling where they get this parts from, if they're safe, or compatible.

iFixit batteries are reliable in my opinion. Guessing charging or power IC chip is at fault. I don't know where these are located on the logic board.

hmmmm,

car charger/hot/changed dock/changed batteries.

i suspect power U2IC. would need a board repair specialist. not just someone who can solder.

however try this first as its generally the best indication. connect to power while you have the battery disconnected . it should boot to apple logo . if nothing appears then i would be pretty certain thats what it is.

let me know your findings .

its very common especially with car chargers and non genuine apple cables

I agree, it happens quite often with bad quality charger. U2 IC should be replaced, job for a good technician. I had the same issue with mine, after replacing it worked perfect again.
