</div></div>It's fine. Just be very careful. If the polarity is wrong, or you touch<br>
the wrong pins, or you give the wrong voltage you will almost certainly<br>
damage your FreeRunner. Hook everything up, then get a friend to look<br>
and confirm you've done it correctly before you turn on the USB power.</blockquote><div><br>Don't worry. I will use isolated alligator clips and check before, that + goes to the red clip and - to the black clip and check once more, to which pins red and black must be connected. I will also take pictures of that operation.<br>
