Now that you have your LabQuest 2 you want to be able to charge it.
If you happen to have the original LabQuest and already have a LabQuest charging station,
you may be able to use the same station to charge your LabQuest 2.
Unfortunately, the shape of the LabQuest 2 and the original LabQuest are not the same,
So you just can't take the LabQuest and drop it into what I have originally.
Starting in October of 2011, we began manufacturing the LabQuest station with removable inserts.
If you happen to have this version of then LabQuest charging station you'll be able to have
just a simple insert that you can replace and be able to charge your LabQuest 2 with
the same station that you charge your LabQuest 1.
Let's talk about how we actally replace this insert.
Start by taking the station and turning it towards you so the label is facing you.
To removed the pocket that's there, we're going to hold on to the clip and push
the inserts so that you can release just one side.
Once one side is released, I repeat that on the other side and then remove the insert for the LabQuest 1.
In orer to position it properly, you must locate the notch that indicates the front of the LabQuest charging pocket.
Place that so it's facing you, drop it into place, rather than just snapping it hard,
push up on the tabs a little bit to snap it in place and place it there.
Now you can take your LabQuest 2, drop it into the charging station, and the light will indicate
that it is now able to charge.
The LabQuest 2 inserts come in packs of four. Think about the classroom configuration that will work best for you.
Change one or change all four of them, but don't change them on a daily basis.
Once they're in place you're all set for charging you LabQuests.
