recently picked up 2pin jst cables to connect a batter via USB LiIon/LiPoly charger but theres no ports on the 5 theyr all small is there any specific jst pin variant available

oops.se

A Raspberry Pi 5 can be powered through the USB-C port or via the 40pin header. There is also some test points on the bottom that could be used, but that needs soldering.

there isnt specific headers that would fit in tha BAT slot the jst cables i got came with headers that dont fit could they be easily replaced? maybe they didnt come out with them yet

oops.se

The only jst contact on the Raspberry Pi 5 is for the RTC

soldering could be my next option as the gpoi are all used up
