Battery 1&3: 0 V across the cell pack can also indicate a bad board which has a short, and the cells will accept a forced charge to confirm this. 2nd battery: May not activate charging circuit. For all these, boards are available direct from Chy-nah for about $12

These are BS. Either the current is not enough to weld even a 0.1mm zinc, or if you increase current to weld properly (in this video they are NOT properly welded) it will last 5 spots before overheating , ultimately burning Mosfets. At least you need to put all mosfets under a very big heat sink. Even like that you will not weld a complete 14S-6P Ebike pack of your dream. Don't waste your money on these like me, go for a serious welder like the 801D for example, it will vastly pay for itself on the long run.

@andrew The use of "amp" here in describing current is short for the word "amperage", not the SI unit "Ampere" (abbreviated as "Amp"). The ambiguity is resolved by context any listener performs virtually subconsciously. You are being too literal. As to the remainder of your comment, Mr. BattTube is busy washing the asbestos dust off his hands after realizing the white powder spilling out of the battery packs he disassembles without wearing nalgene gloves may, in fact, not be drywall dust at all. I will take the liberty of completing your homework assignment for him. (My heritage is Canadian, it's the least I can do for him. And Canadians are well known as "nice people." It's just the nice thing to do.) Part 1: Voltage is a measure of electrical potential. Electric potential is created by the separation of positive & negative charges. It is manifest as an electric field throughout space defined by the geometry of the charge separation & Coulomb's Law. A test charge within an electric field (conventionally noted as a small positive charge, +𝘲ₒ) will feel a force acting on it from the field. Just as moving a mass against the force acting on it in a gravitational field adds gravitational potential energy to the mass, moving the test charge against the electrical force acting on it adds to the electric potential of the charge. Gravitational & Electrical fields are conservative fields, meaning the difference in potential between two points within the field is not dependent upon the path taken between the two. Voltage is a measure of the difference in electric potential between two points in space, to include two points within an electrical circuit. Part 2: A property that makes metals conductive is that the electrons in a metal are loosely bound to the molecules & atoms that constitute the metallic structure. They can become unbound as "free electrons" by the smallest of forces to include the application of an external electric field. As a result, the movement of electrons will occur throughout an entire length of any wire constructed of metal. As unbound electrons, they also manifest their own point source, radially symmetric electric field that all the other free electrons will feel. Because they are all like charges, this mutual interaction will be repulsive so that all the electrons will want to be as far away from each other as possible in a minimum energy configuration. Thus, the free electrons will reside on the surface of the conductor, being held from escaping beyond by the positively ionized metal atoms of the wire. Like the surface of a soap bubble, the electrons will arrange into a minimum energy geometry. A Point of Order: Your terminology also has an issue. Technically, the phrase "electricity flow" is more ambiguous than even "amp" since the context isn't necessarily as distinguishable. There are two things going on here that the term "electricity flow" may refer to. There is the movement of the free electrons in a conductor, and the transmission of power around a circuit. They are coupled, yet distinct, phenomena. The electron movement, or current, POV for your terminology I have already described above. The other interpretation describes power transmission and involves an understanding that the energy of the current in a conductor resides in the electromagnetic field produced by the current & is completely outside the conductor. To demonstrate your understanding of this aspect of electricity flow, your homework is to reply with an explanation of the Pointing Vector. *If there are any inaccuracies in my explanations, please call them out for me to fix so that I'm not spreading disinformation. I wrote this without consulting any reference material to verify I was explaining the concepts correctly. To the extent that this is accurately informative, credit should be given to the Physics Department at the University of Wisconsin - River Falls, & the Michigan State University Physics & Astronomy graduate school.

Are you able to re-write your text and format such text into logical paragraphs - and not write what is an almost endless line of text. Do CANADIAN schools teach writing and literacy skills ? Per-haps were you asleep in class and not paying attention. In addition the word NICE is a negative word as are many words beginning with the letter N - and this applies to other languages. The word you should have used is PLEASANT - Do remember to use it in the future - choose your words carefully. I will await your reply to be re-writen and formatted so I can read it comfortably without suffering a Kopfschmerzen. Study how text is formatted in books - Newspapers and Magazines. Study the Chicago Style Manual for additional information. I am familiar with the ' Chicago Style Manual ' having written and collaborated to write eight procedures manuals for the USAF and RAAF prior to that - and much later - two manuals for a Multi-National Petro-Chemical CORPORATION ( Total page count 2700 pages) (1500 + 1200 respectively) The purpose of which was for the CORPORATE entity to obtain ISO 9000 and ISO 9001 certification -- Thus one had to be familiar with the CHICAGO STYLE MANUAL. There are rules and protocols for writing such DOCUMENTATION and Legal Documents. Legal documents MUST use correct grammatical legal English - not the peasant level English taught to the common people at the CORPORATE GOVERNMENT indoctrination center - known as school. Besides serving as an AIR FORCE PILOT since 1961 - beginning with the RAF (Bomber command to be specific) In the 30 years serving three countries - I studied Law - Electronics and - Electronics & Elctro-Mechanical Engineering - specializing in Robotics - Also hold a Masters degree Psychology and national security studies and Risk management. Following retirement from the Military I taught Law at Night College as well as English and History In High School - The most rewarding was working as a relief teacher and teaching students age 7 to 10 -- They are logical thinkers and their mind is not contaminated with negative social expectations that are considered appropriate by society. These pressure groups aim to increases social acceptance buy that group. In simple terms - classical conditioning - it is social brainwashing and indoctrination to ensure the people fit into the common belief structure of society and to avoid becoming independent logical thinkers. Even parents teach their Sons and Daughters by repeating 'Don't be smart' in the end the child (legal terminology) accepts that being 'smart' is not such a good idea.

You've probably reduced the contact area in half plus does the solder have any better electrical conductivity than the pads on the board themselves? Edit: and the mosfets are in parallel so the board is not limited to 300A

I’m a little confused. You say that lack of pressure creates a high current arc that melts the nickel “DUE TO HIGH RESISTANCE OF THE BAD CONNECTION” and TOO HARD LOWERS THE RESISTANCE TO HEAT ENOUGH!! I DO BELIEVE YOU ARE ASS BACKWARDS ON THAT BUD.. SOMEONE CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG. BUT, IF YOU HAVE LOWER RESISTANCE YOU ARE GOING TO GET MORE HEAT THAN WITH HIGHER RESISTANCE. AND IF YOU HAVE HIGHER RESISTANCE THEN YOU WONT HAVE AS MUCH CURRENT GOING THROUGH. ARE YOU PICKING UP WHAT IM LAYING DOWN? LOW RESISTANCE = MORE CURRENT. HIGHER RESISTANCE = LESS CURRENT. PS. TOWARDS THE MIDDLE OF THE VIDEO WHEN YOU HAD THE 3 BATTERIES OUT THAT THE BOTTOM ONE WOULD RELEASE ITS FULL POTENTIAL THROUGH THE DEVICE.. THAT TOO IS INCORRECT.. I MAY BE WRONG, so AGAIN SOMEONE CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG. BUT IF YOU HAD. 2000 amp battery it would be perfectly fine too use as the battery just doesn’t dump all that power into something. The device you are using draws the current that it needs. So, for example if you have a 12v fan that runs on 1 amp. That device will pull 1 amp- WHAT IT NEEDS- and not just leak current into the fan. It just doesn’t work that way.

It goes against common sense but more resistance will melt the nickel. Think of bad connections in homes that start fires. Its resistance heating stuff up. So its a matter of finding a sweet spot between getting enough current but also getting enough heat. Thats why you don't press down super hard with your electrodes, just light pressure and you angle them slightly so you are using the sides and don't have super pointy tips (reduces the contact area)

Distilled water is not conductive. The problem is all the minerals and stuff suspended in it conduct electricity. Distilled water has a negative ion charge, so if it comes into contact with loose minerals it will suck them right up and become conductive. If there's enough minerals dissolving into it, it will conduct electricity. But it usually doesn't if the board isn't flaking off or something. Still solvents are better.
