DXG 305V Digital Camera Battery Mod - No More Worn Out Batteries!

I've had this digital camera for several years, and I found that it would suck the power out of the rechargeable batteries in no time! I finally thought of a way to mod it so that I could save the batteries for those times when I actually needed them. This turned out to be a simple mod, using only a couple of small blade connectors, an Exacto knife, a vise grip and a cell phone charger! Please excuse the low quality of the pics, I was using a cheapo webcam to photograph my camera lol...

Step 1 Remove Batteries and Find the Positive and Negative Posts

I simply removed the batteries and found that the right side positive post and the left side negative post were the 'ends' of the circuit. (see positive circled in red and negative circled in black) I then placed a small blade connector in front of each post and slid a battery back into place against it.
