Watched the short video in that listing. I want itā¦ $500 is close to the cost of branded handheld crimpers. Haha I bet that machine is a pain in the ass, youāre supposed to buy the $4000 one. I wonder if you need a different machine for XH vs PH, etc.
Looking for some nickel size recommendations. First battery build.
Building a 10S4P 40T flat pack for a rigid deck. Cells running lengthwise with the length of the board. Iāll run 40 batt max per side.
Planning 0.2mm-0.25mm (0.3 if my maelectrics can do it)
considering 40mm nickel and folded series connections
Also considering 40mm nickel and folded tabs which allows the series connections on top. Probably copper bar or 10awg wire loops.
Just wanted to make sure either sounds sufficient for the max potential load. Canāt find much info beyond 10mm width
Either one of these better from a longevity standpoint?
That sound good for me. Use 2x 14-12 awg instead of 1x 10awg and solder one between first and second cell and second between third and 4th cell.
That allows shared load and a flexy pack which is always good even if you have a stiff deck.
I wouldnāt suggest using the nickel folding method for serial connections.
