[Elecraft] [KX3] KX2 Bone Head Mistake pure and simple...

[Matt Maguire]

Not ordering a charger from Elecraft is an oversight, easily corrected. Ripping out protection circuitry from a Li Ion battery is a bonehead mistake :-)

So,I bought a KX2, a battery and an ATU... All working FB. But did I buy a battery charger??? Well, no, I have battery chargers in fact a bunch all designed to charge a wide variety of LION or LIPO or nicads lead acid or Nickle metal  etc. But I cant charge the Elecraft Battery.
It seems that to charge the battery one needs the Elecraft Battery charger. I did not buy the Elecraft Charger... Bonehead MISTAKE. 

So the question is.... How to charge that battery?Must I strip out all of the protection to charge it or is there a simple way around?
Thank You
