[Not Recommended] Battery with a Larger Capacity
Larger capacity batteries with the Molex PicoBlade 51021-0200 (1.25 mm pitch) connector are available on the market. However, they require high level of skill to route the wires and position the battery correctly and safely. For this reason, we do not recommend using them.

Using Toucan Without Batteries
If you do not have a battery yet, you can still use the keyboard by connecting both halves with two USB-C cables to USB power sources.
[Not Recommended] Changing the Polarity
If you cannot obtain a battery with the correct size and polarity, but have one with the right size and wrong polarity, you may carefully swap the wires by unlocking the Molex connector using tweezers. Disconnect the wires, swap their positions, and reattach them securely.
⚠️ However, we strongly do not recommend this, as improper handling can damage the battery, cause overheating, or even lead to fire.
