How to make a USB Ipod wall charger

Step 3Assembly

Assembly
Looking at the the diagram from the last step, you should be able to find the top of the female usb end, so that we don't get our wires crossed. On the male end pictured the contacts are upwards, on your female end, in the adapter you just butchered, up is with the contacts facing down. Be sure you have it right before you solder your positive wire to the +5V lug and the negative wire to the ground lug. Run the wire right through the old ps2 mouse plug hole!

Test it with the multimeter before you plug in your Ipod!
Test before!


Now you can fill the void in the usb adapter with silicon glue, j.b.weld, epoxy or whatever you prefer, and it's completely tricked out!
