Basically a few months ago I bought a very expensive gimbal for filming weddings etc with a DSLR for my business. All working great used it on a few shoots - it has a little bluetooth controller that basically controls all the functions and I'm now having issues with it.
Suspect the battery in the controller has give up and no longer holding charge. Can leave it on all night and then it doesn't turn on but it will turn on when USB power is applied and then goes off as soon as you take external power away. These are £80+ new so I don't want to fork out for one after spending over a grand on the gimbal if I can avoid it.
Have opened it up and found the battery is readily available on ebay - my problem is that the new batteries come with bare wires.
I've de pinned the connector I need to use on the board but I need pointing in the direction of where to pick up some of the terminal/connector things that go into the plastic connector.
Pictures worth a thousand words:
