How I made my lipo packs slimmer!

Where did you get the soldering paste?

you can also bend the pack at the top so instead of having the two smaller disconnected packs side-by-side that you need to resolder you can have them head-to-head and keep the connection intact. You have to insulate the heads so they don’t short against each other and then reshrink wrap. End up with a long pack that the wires come out the center

I bought it off amazon or eBay nothing fancy just do a search

Aluminum Solder Wire 96 Sn/4 Ag .062 Flux Core https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DC3102Y/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_stiaxbXZMH703

Found this aluminum solder and tried it out it worked exactly 30 million times better than that old stuff I used

If you didn’t add to this thread…I wouldn’t of known you put it up…I was just gonna ask you what you did… :facepunch:t2::zap::metal:t2:

I did a similar thing with my lipos. Except I layed them all out side by side.

Omg how long did that take? I didn’t even want to try that I felt like it’d take so long

Also did you take pictures of the connections? I’d like to see it if you don’t mind

Yea it’s really easy I just split one connection but lowguido spilt it multiple times. Do whatever your setup requires! I have 3 batteries that I need to split I’m gonna try to do what he did I’ll update this thread with results

Ever work with these?

What’s the C rating on that?

That is an excellent question

It has a board on it which you’d have to take off for over charging and what not.

You’re better off just buying ready made lipos and dissecting them. I reccomend 8000 mah 6s zippy battery or 10000 mah 6s floureon lipo battery.

Honestly multistar sucks in my personal opinion

it says its for phones and ipads so i would say 1c max

It didnt take me too long. A few hours max. I did 2 of them. Maybe one day I will have the means to make a video how I did it.

For what it is worth, it is a lot cheaper to buy a pack and separate them than it is to buy individual cells.

Lol I just did a pack like that! I was so inspired that after work I took 30 minutes and soldered it up. I didn’t attach balance leads or terminals. I have a lot of cells laying around and this is perfect.

The solder is key.
