Replacing connector on battery (sh.itjust.works)

submitted 2 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Hey all,
I accidentally purchased a battery for my T114 with the wrong connector. I am looking at just purchasing some JST connectors and changing the connector myself.

Is there any danger to do this while the cable is still connected to the battery?

The battery is a 803040 1000mAH 3.7V battery

Don't touch red to black and you'll be fine.

You'll be okay, just be careful with it. Just be super careful when you're crimping the connector pins. Considered putting tape over the first pin after you get it in the connector before you put the second one in.
