Very grateful for your post , As i was in a hurry to find out if three mac-book's worked i hard wired to the batt first with gsm charger on one cell . Then even more impatient i changed to 12v (not lith-ion ) and hooked it series ... Well 10 sec later i felt one of the cells start to swell and fast ....Ops un hooked it and rushed it out side ,,Still determined i thought of wiring to the board for the batt and , Then was trying to find the pin-out for mac side and didn't understand the the data sense ( center ) if it was neg or pos pulsing or needed a resistor........SO THANK YOU FOR SAVING ME A LOT OF MONEY AND TIME I WONT BE BUYING THE CHARGERS FROM EBAY NOR ANY MORE SOUTHERN WIRING ...SINCERELY EMBARRASSED
