Default Multiplex charging

I just purchased a Multiplex Royal Evo 12 from Tower. When it comes to electrics and wiring, I am an idiot. Does anyone have any suggestions for rapid charging like on a Sirius charger? The charge plug is different for this radio than any other that I own. The battery plug inside the transmitter is also different. Any suggestions would be helpful.
PS. I love this new radio. Setup and mixing is a breeze.

I bought an adaptor from George Joy a couple of years ago but didn't see it on the Sirius web site the last time I looked. Don't use anything but a Sirius Charge and got rid of all my transmiters that can't use it without resorting to a soldering iron.

As per suggestions here I cut the connector (one wire at a time to not short the battery) and added a standard servo connector in the middle. That way I can take the battery out and charge it with my Orbit.

I just wanted to take a second and thank everyone who replied to my post. I also wanted to compliment George Joy on great service. I emailed him for a suggestion, and he sent me an email the same day. He makes a multiplex converter for his Sirius chargers which I promptly ordered. Thanks again
