This mount has room for two pins, that will charge the nexus when you put it in the mount. You will need:

  • An usb cable
  • A small peace of conductive metal, like a nail or similar. Preferably cobber. Iron will do.
  • Sodering equipment
  • Wire cutters
    Proceed by cutting the peaces of metal in two bites, one just a tiny bit longer than the other. about 5-7mm in length. they should just stick out a mm or two out of the mount. Make sure they can move freely through the holes. this way they can automatically adjust there height so both connects to the tablet.
    Use wire cutters to cut the usb cable. find the + (red) and the - (black) wire and solder them in one end of each of the pins.
    insert the pins into the mount from the bottom, along with the cable and fasten the lid with the screw. The + pin goes to the hole furthest near the edge and the screw hole, and the - pin goes to the other hole.
    If the pins arn't connecting, you can use a hot pin to move the holes a bit.
    If the print is too wide for your tablet, you can use some tabe to thicken one side of the mount, and thereby make the tablet slot smaller.

    Enjoy!
