I have have a dell inspiron 1150 and over the many many years of owning it i had a problem of the barrel jack coming of the board.
It seemed at least once a year i had to take it apart on solder it back on.
Well today it would not take. I think that part of the board is now dead. i could try the whole take the green film of and make the contacts larger but i want to find a permanent solution.
What i want to do is to hard wire the connector into the battery terminal.
The battery is a Li-ion batter 14.8v at 6450mAH with a 96WH capacity.
And the Power supply brick is19.5V at 4.62A
I have never done anything like this before and wanted some advice.
I would like to have the battery in there still so i can still use it as a portable computer but if it will interfere with it i dont mind not having it.
I was thinking i would have to drop the V down maybe using a voltage divider circuit or something but i decided it might be better to get people with more knowledge before i risk my laptop.
Thanks so much for any help or advice.
