Hi everyone
Im going to make a 10S6P samsung 30Q battery but I don’t know how to weld the pack together. I have two options. Which one is the best? Maybe why? Any other suggestions?
OPTION 1:
I use 10mm X 0.15mm nickel strip. If there are two lines, that means im putting 2 nickel strips instead of 1. (not my picture from the side view)
OPTION 2
I use 10mm X 0.15mm nickel strip. All the read lines are 2 nickel strips on top of each other.
Currently waiting for a lot of china parts to arrive. At the time they arrive, will I order the batteries and the build will be done soon after. One important thing I have learned and I think everyone should know is: Always order parts from China before ordering anything else.
I used that dual lock, the genuine one and wasn’t impressed. The dial lock is so strong that it rips the whole strip from the surface, the “glue” on it is weaker than the dual lock ahaha but maybe in your case, it will work better
Ordered some more stuff from China. Of course I got some fish paper from ebay that cost me $19 and today I just found some fish paper from AliExpress for $2.5…
Im also going to order some fish paper from Nkon when ordering the batteries. Then i’ll do a quality test (me touching the fish paper and see what feels best. ALSO SETS IT ON FIRE )
I received the 7 pin cables so if anyone wants 1 or 2 of them, hit me up. Shipping from Denmark costs around $5…
And the foam: I found it on the streets while crusing around on my bike. One mans trash is another mans treasure
I also found this cool diagram of the VESC 4.8.
Canbus: connect another VESC.
P1: HALL SENSOR: Connect the motor sensor wire.
P2: SWD: No idea
P3: UART: Connect bluetooth module.
3 wires in left corner: Connect the receiver for the remote.

I received an apdapter for my car battery to make the clamps fit Put everything back together and BAM everything works!
Well that’s not really what happend… I tried welding 2 peices of metal together but instead of welding them together it made a lot of sparks. Don’t know whats the issue? Does anybody know? @darkkevind@moon
On the bright side: Now it dosen’t feel like a prototype and everything dosen’t fall into pieces when im touching it.
The 2 metals pieces I tried welding together is around 0.5mm thick and is bend everywhere. Could the problem be that the spot welder dosen’t have enough power to weld them together. And the sparks come because the metal isn’t touching properly? I don’t have any razor blades to test it with but is there something else I can test it with instead?
Unfortunately not, I wish I did, but I am working on my gear drive and my own esc 6. But I can’t complain, I like learning and designing new things, so in the meantime wont bother me.
I hope the welder works for you, and me
All I am really waiting for is those junction connectors
Here they are:
(all the prices are including shipping)

I love this kind of builds where ppl build things to build other things to put in things they’re building! keep up the good job!
