A tool to facilitate attachment and detachment of cable connectors. The tool includes a backstop plate for engaging a cable connector receptacle housing, an overmold plate for engaging a cable connector being insertibly connected into a cable connector receptacle, and a rotational means passing through a rotational acceptor formed as part of the overmold plate and rotatably attached to the backstop plate. The rotational means causes the overmold plate to approach the backstop plate upon application of a first spin direction of the rotational means and causing the overmold plate to recede from the backstop plate upon application of a second spin direction of the rotational means. The overmold plate approaching the backstop plate causes the engaged cable connector to be insertibly connected into the cable connector receptacle housing and the overmold plate receding from the backstop plate causes the engaged cable connector to be removed.

In an approach for selecting a battery charging rate, a processor, responsive to an electronic device with a rechargeable battery being connected to a battery charging device, identifies a current battery status of the rechargeable battery. A processor determines a disconnect time of the battery charging device. A processor determines a charge level required. A processor determines a charging profile based on the current battery status, the disconnect time of battery charging device, and the charge level required. A processor sends the charging profile to the battery charging device.
