How To solder QS8 connector to lipo battery 🔋

[@biggnasty989]

Thank you for the video. This is exactly what I needed. No more melted ec5 connectors for me.

[@KiloWattRC]

No problem man, glad this video was a help or modavation to you

[@runngunrc1991]

You made it look easy. I always get a little solder outside the Terminal. Great explanation !!!

[@KiloWattRC]

Thanks for watching, I hope this help or was entertaining some

[@petebarr780]

Considering you run some of the best electronics, highest speed runs on KZbin...it's cool you shared the way you solder your stuff. I'll be sure to watch this again when I try to do it myself

[@KiloWattRC]

Thanks for watching and the support. Hope this helps out some

Bro the fire alarm chirp has me dead 💀

[@KiloWattRC]

it's stupid as hell, has som crazy ass special 12e battery but yet it has 120 volts wire wired to the stupid alarm

[@rtz549]

@@KiloWattRCjust unplug it.

[@illhairacing3543]

This is my first time going to be soldering QS8 connectors on my EC5 CNHL lipos. The batteries are brand new so I need to have them a certain charged before cutting the negative and positive wire?? And also which one do I cut first just wanna make sure I don’t short anything out and any tips the video was great!! Just lmk

[@KiloWattRC]

It wouldn't matter what voltages you have the pack at, or which wire u cut first. Just don't cut both wires at the same time.

[@edwinlomonacofoolsend]

What brand and m9del soldering iron ate you using?

[@KiloWattRC]

just a weller iron, nothing crazy

[@serpentkingrcworldwidestre7269]

What brand solder do you use sir, great soldering work

[@KiloWattRC]

Its just a basic weller 40watt station from home depot

[@GraphicFrost]

How does your solder stay wet looking. I just spend 4 hours trying to solder a qs10 and I pray I made enough contact. What temp, type of solder, flux, etc?

[@KiloWattRC]

just the max temp with this Weller 40watt station. I use Kester 60/40 solder. U have to make sure the tip you are using is sharpened clean. I use a grinding wheel to sharpen and clean it up

[@Fats-yg1jd]

What's the wattage on your soldering iron? My 80watt doesn't seem to get hot enough

[@KiloWattRC]

I use this 40watt station on highest temp www.amazon.com/Weller-WLC100-40-Watt-Soldering-Station/dp/B000AS28UC/ref=asc_df_B000AS28UC/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=198103947043&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=10788474681605956066&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9007799&hvtargid=pla-448477212877&psc=1

[@Th3Mafia]

what temp is your tip most of the time?

[@KiloWattRC]

max temp I believe 500F

[@angelomiller9425]

How many watt soldering iron do I need?

[@KiloWattRC]

I am using a 40 watt seller at Mac wattage.

[@mohammadkhalid6886]

Safety first 😮 , when do soldering use cover on battery leads for accidently dont contect - +

[@KiloWattRC]

Oh yes that is covered in this video link below. This particular video was a quicker sum up. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qaSWiKl4otl8p7s

[@HavocHermes]

You made that look wayyyyyyyyyy too easy

[@akinnon2000]

thanks

[@THEPAINOFITALL]

How many watts is your soldering iron, please 😉

[@KiloWattRC]

40watts

[@markkumollari43]

👍🇨🇦🤠

[@Maykay1312]

Is it possible to solder 4 or 6 Awg wire to it?

[@KiloWattRC]

Yes 6AWG is more ideal because the cover caps fit 6AWG wiring. If u run 4AWG the cover caps won't fit u would have to alter caps or not use them

[@AKAKILLINGKING]

I ruined 10 connections 20 connectors & I bought 2 different solder guns…. I still can’t do this shit man wtf

[@AKAKILLINGKING]

I ruined 10 connections 20 connectors & I bought 2 different solder guns…. I still can’t do this shit man wtf just balls up doesn’t want to stick to the connector or the wire, just stays on my tip

[@illoko9034]

Been there done that… Soldering can get extremely frustrating. The larger the wire the harder it gets but the main point is to keep everything very hot. The solder will join the wire only if the wire is really hot because you heated it with the iron. If your iron isn’t hot enough (it should melt the solder REALLY fast) then it might be bad quality or you might have to send the tip. Also use solder flux that’ll help a lot.

[@eddieramirez435]

He funny AF he said he doesn't use helping hands cause he solder's for a living 😅😅but on his other video he's using them. 😂😂 🤡

[@KiloWattRC]

Quote "I don't need helping hands". Thanks for taking the time watching both videos. But don't twist up what I say.
