Every series group has at least 7 nickel strip connections. This battery will only need to output 35 amps constant.
Makes sense, also it being unfinished.
My concern is that your welds donât look to be evenly spaced or stepped between layers, and personally 2x welds per connection makes me nervous when they arenât evenly spaced.
Promise Iâm not intentionally trying to be a cunt. Just saw some things that raised an eyebrow, but if youâre not done yet makes sense 
This, for example, made me wonder wtf was going on here as itâs not clear in the pic

I see your point but most of those nickel strip are not even necessary this pack has over 3000 welds in it and the first layer all has 3 welds per connection. The top layer has 2 which are sort of just âthrown onâ as a backup.
I agree that the pack is unconventional and confusing as fuck ( that was my fault) i originally made the pack as 16s13p but then decided to change it up. And for anyone who has built packs, you know itâs hard as fuck to fix those types of mistakes but I did my best. The outcome was a super confusing layout but still completely functional
In that picture, those bottom 3 cells are just paralleled with the top 6 shown. Not much current will past through those cells as they are only 3 of 16 available And even those bunch of 3 cells have 3-4 connections to the parallel group.
I really donât understand the comments from some people, itâs a solid pack. Itâs going in my own ebike

Roger. That makes total sense.
You will have to forgive me on this one, but from pictures alone I donât think I was the only one confused. Hah.

Yeah sorry, wasnt trying to call you out, just clarifying what i thought caught some peoples attention.
Especially with the initial lack of detail im sure you can understand the confusion especially given some previous examples that have been posted here before.
Glad this was a non-issue

If this was on builders weâd be in an last Man standing alley fight at this point. Progress? Hah
Whatâs the frame youâre building into?
I really want an ebike but Iâm stuck because I donât really want to put in the effort to build one myself right now, but I know if I buy one Iâll end up with regret owning a prebuilt.
Is yours a regular bike youâve kitted out?

Haha yea true that.
Itâs originally a super 73 s1 that I traded for an eboard I donât much use anymore.
Iâve upgraded the esc to a focbox ( I know 13s on a focbox is a bad idea but if it burns out, Iâll upgrade it) my aim is 30 mph with a range of about 60 miles or so.
A ton of custom upgrades like a thicker seat, working brake lights, head lights, 54t chain ring , new cranks that sort of thing

yeah the moq was 5. Theyâre for 6 5s 8ah packs to get me a 10s3p 24ah pack. All balance leads are fused as well (just next to the jst-xh)

ideally id like to make a pcb which is one length, yet you can cut down to size For your own batt. Thatâd make the whole cable salad alot nicer

Ideally Iâd like to get one that supports 4 6s hi C lipos, for a 12s2p config. Thatâs a great idea, your prolly in to something.
