+ === Connecting A Battery To TeleMini v2.0
+
+ There are two possible battery connections on
+ EasyMini. You can use either method; both feed
+ through the power switch terminals.
+

+ white JST plug. This mates with single-cell Lithium
+ Polymer batteries sold by Altus Metrum.
+
+ The other is a pair of screw terminals marked 'Battery
+ +' and 'Battery -'. Connect a battery from 4 to 12
+ volts to these terminals, being careful to match polarity.
+
+ === Charging Lithium Batteries
+
+ Because EasyMini allows for batteries other than the
+ standard Altus Metrum Lithium Polymer cells, it cannot
+ incorporate a battery charger circuit. Therefore, when
+ using a Litium Polymer cell, you'll need an external
+ charger. These are available from Altus Metrum, or
+ from Spark Fun.
