How to Recharge the Battery for a Palm TX Using a Travel Charger

Recharging your Palm TX's battery with a travel charger is a simple process. If you are traveling within the United States, your travel charger works like any other battery charger. However, other countries may use different electrical input outlets that are not compatible with standard U.S. plugs, so it is important to invest in a travel charger before traveling internationally. Follow these steps to recharge the battery for a Palm TX using a travel charger.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Travel charger
• Palm TX

1. Purchase a travel charger kit, which can be found online or at most electronic stores for about $30.

2. Research the electrical input outlets at your desired location. Will a conventional U.S. plug work or will you need a specific adapter? Does your new travel charger kit come equipped with the necessary adapter or will you need to special-order one?

3. Attach the proper adapter into your charger and then plug it into the outlet.

4. Determine the outlet's voltage and frequency and then set the frequency and voltage on your adapter. You are now ready to charge your Palm TX.

Tips & Warnings

• If you’re upgrading Palm handheld devices, you should buy a new charger. Since chargers age, you may not get the best results with an old travel charger.
• Learn about the electrical input outlets at your destination ahead of time, and be sure that your travel kit comes equipped with an adapter that meets those specifications.
• Before traveling, research the electrical input plugs of your destination to see if your travel charger will work. You may need to purchase an additional adapter.
