Infolithium Mounting Brackets?

Post by Sir Games-A-Lot »

I searched the forums and google but no cigar, Ben has used these on several portables, but he has never revealed their origin in the making-of's, and I might need one for a project that's in the plannning stages.

(and and by mounting bracket I mean the holder on the portables that use infolithiums into which the battery snaps into so that it's contacts touch an other set of contacts, which are intern wired to the various PCB's in the portable).

Thanks in Advance.

I don't know what Ben used, but I would hack the holder off a camera or charger.

Ooops, my bad, I just took a closer look at some of the making-of's and the holders are custom built into the case. Well, it's new plan time again :wink:.

Sir games a lot, all you need is one of those cheap RC car 7.2 or 9.6 volt battery packs. snip off the tip and pull the metal prong tips out it and there you have molex connectors, the type you mount sony batteries with.

it does suck trying to crimp the pins without the proper crimpers (which are expensive).
