Garmin power pack and edge 820

I bought a Garmin Power Pack for my edge 820, missing the fact it's primarily designed for the Garmin 1030. 
Issues I have - T

The front mount is sealed and does not allow for the battery extension to be inserted all the way through. I am presuming this is because it's the 820 and not 1030.

I, therefore, presumed that the attachment that comes with the battery will somehow attach to the mount with screws. I cannot, however, attach the battery to it and hold the battery.

I have been online looking for a video to illustrate what to do and have not found one.

I would be most grateful of any assistance. Have a 200km bike ride soon and thought that this was a neat though expensive way to charge the bike computer. However its become at present an expensive waste of money. 

Many thanks in advance

  • Sure. But I don't think the would fit all on the same mount. 1030 and Charge need to go together on the same mount. For additional Varia you need to use a separate mount, something like k-edge.com/.../

  • Understand the cross bar mount bracket for the Varia light, but I have the wrap and cables coming out from the drop bar...I could barely mount the Edge front-out-mount. I can maybe only attach the ligh way lower to the fork but I don't like the idea drilling into carbon fiber fork....I had once an accident the carbon fiber drop bar broke, luckily in my basement mounted to the trainer....
