| [title] Solder the battery connector | |
| [* black] Press the soldering iron tip against the circuit board's solder pad and the battery connector's lead for about 1 second to heat them both. Angle the tip so it has maximum contact with the pad and lead. | |
| [* black] Feed the solder wire into the heated area until there's a concave pool ("mini volcano") of solder surrounding the lead. | |
| [* black] Remove the solder wire, then remove the soldering iron from the solder pad. | |
| [* black] Repeat this process for the other battery connector lead. | |
