Yes exactly

well I have been thinking about going that route because my skills with controlling heat when trying to solder on large wires is poor.
but i have larger tips coming for my soldering iron and Iām gonna do some more practice.

I just make it to where I can pull them aside to get the spot welder in there where it needs to be, sometimes a tight fit but I usually mark exactly where I want to solder by scratching the nickel ahead of time so it works out fine. As far as flux gos, I clean the strips after tinning with alcohol then again with alcohol q-tips on the spot weld spots after the wires are soldered on.

Doesnāt that still suffer from the locational current bottle neck?

Maybe Iām mangling these cells more than recovering them. Negative side was hard to pull off. Waiting on better flush cutters to clean up the remaining bits. But I also warped the neg sides a bit. Seems concerning.
Positive sides came out easy. Still a little rough to the touch though.
Good lord lol thatās pretty bad
Thatās more than a little concerningā¦I wouldnāt if I was you
