Reversing the Polarity on LiPo Battery JST Connectors

The 2-Pin JST-PH 2.0 connector is found on many LiPo batteries used in hobby drones, RC cars and toys, and of course electrical boards and modules. These are handy little connectors, but there is one problem - the polarity convention. About half of the vendors connect the negative (black wire) on the left and the positive (red wire) on the right sides. The other half does it the other way around. This can be an issue if the board or electronics you want to plug the LiPo battery into has the reversed polarity convention. Plugging in the LiPo terminals backwards can cause damage to onboard components on many boards that do not have reversed polarity protection. It is easy to reverse the polarity on these JST connectors. In this video we demonstrate how this is done in a manner that preserves the integrity of the connector. *** Datasheets & supporting material on PTSolns Documentation Repository: https://docs.ptsolns.com PTSolns website: https://ptsolns.com PTSolns IDE to program microcontroller development boards: https://ptsolns.com/ide PTSolns Distributors: https://ptsolns.com/distributors PTSolns Product Catalog: https://ptsolns.com/catalog PTSolns Tinker Thoughts: https://ptsolns.com/tinker-thoughts Chapters: 00:00 Intro 01:16 Method 02:06 Example 05:45 Closing Notes #LiPo #diy #battery
