Hi All!

/* Warning! Bad english ahead */

Im looking for information on howto "treat" the battery-connectors of my
TP240 so i can charge the battery outside of the TP. 
It has 5 Connectors, 2 for the charge and 3 for the electronics (i
think).

I got a TP-battery-charger, but for newer models.
It has the same amount of connectors so i thought "Lets just try all
possible combinations of those 3 connectors" but it didnt work and it
never charged the battery.

Maybe someone knows a place where you one can find such information.

I have absolutely no idea whats happinng on those 3 connectors, does
anyone?

oh wait.. i just realize this is not very related to linux.. ehm.. i
hope thats ok.

Greetings from germany,
