8ms on 4s battery with the Boss welder. No issues at all. I have built many copper batteries so far.

Hopefully today it’ll be up and running. It sparks when I plug the power in so I’m still a little weird about that. I’m not too sure how to perform surgery on the power input. But it did charge a little and turn on.
Not good 
Where exactly? When you plug in the charger port or you connect the main power leads to the focbox?

The one that charges the battery. It’s a pre-made eskate battery. I can’t remember the name of it but it used to be popular lol
Hopefully you didn’t get it from diyeboards. Lol. So you plugged it in to charge the battery and it sparked?

I think I remember you being in NY, so shipping wouldn’t be wild for such a tiny device
Yah man!

I don’t think it’s an an antispark issue. But there’s a bunch of glue and stuff on the port so I’m not sure how much fixing I can do to it.

You need to replace that jack. If you freeze-frame the video you can see the sparks are coming from the bottom of the jack and shooting out around the barrel plug. Something in the jack is shorting-out. Just snip the wires going to it (mark positive and negative) and get rid of that, drill it if you have to. JB Weld a new jack in there with a fuse on it and you should be good to go
