I am looking at removing the battery from my Nexus 7 so that it will turn on when i turn on an appliance that it will be controlling through the USB. Since the USB will be used for communication i cannot use it to power the device, so i will be removing the battery and powering it from the wall charger output but cutting off the uUSB connector and putting on the battery connector. I am going to keep the battery for road trips and vacations so i can use it as a tablet. I have attached a picture of the part to aleviate an confusion.
I have tried calling both Google and Asus to get the part number for the connector, but neither gave me the part number. I couldn't get to the people who would know.
The connector has a 2mm pitch for the 6 connectors. The dimensions of the part are 12.3x1.8x5mm and I could not find any part on either Digi-Key or Mouser that was under 2mm in height. I bought a couple of connectors that have a 2mm height and tried to sand them down to fit, but they ended up falling apart before i could sand off enough to make them fit into the female end of the connector. I do not need the exact connector they use, but that would be preferred.
Does anyone know of a connector that would fit this?
