The charge circuit on my label maker has died and I can no longer use the label maker to charge the battery.
This is a very quickly modeled “cradle” for the Brother BA-E001 battery. It has three holes that line up with the center of the contacts on the battery pack. I soldered some spare wire to a few pogo pins that I had on hand and hot-glued them in place and then used an external power supply to charge my battery pack back up.
It's a standard 2 18650 pack. Use a LiPo charger, somewhere around 8.3v at 450mA or so to get it topped up. I have not opened it up to see if there is any battery protection so be careful!
Battery Dummy
For use cases where you need to print quite a lot of labels and don't necessarily need the portability of a battery you can use the battery dummy. Uses the same pogo pins that the cradle is meant for. Supply 8-9V DC with a supply that can do AT LEAST 1 amp and you'll be good to go
