A battery for the Beast

[X-ray]

He has an A4000T and he intends to connect the battery pack to the battery pins on the mobo. Like I did with mine.

As far as I can tell there is no recharge circuit on those pins, so the issue is whether it is okay for him to put his rechargeable phone battery on those pins.

But that is making life hard when there are dedicated mobo pins for a battery pack, and the added bonus of having a battery far away from the mobo, and not having to solder anything. See my pic...

I can't see any harm being done if you put a 3,6 V battery on those pins, whether it is rechargeable or not. I say go for it. Is the battery connector 'keyed' like the one in my picture? If not you will have to match + and - yourself.

The 'key' works because on my connector on the battery pack, there are only three holes, so you can't connect it wrong. Well if you know which is + and -, then go for it. I can't see the harm. And yes, your battery will just run down like mine, but I suppose when yours is flat you can put it in the phone to recharge whereas I gotta buy a new one.
I am also thinking of modifying my case: but I ahve less to lose because my case in bad condition. I was thinking of brushed aluminium for mine.
