Tremendously helpful. I appreciate your slow deliberate pace covering all the bases and I love how you dealt with the hot solder iron heat issue. I also like how you compartmentalized 6 batteries at a time making the process simpler to understand. No missing camera angles, either. making you wonder where that wire went! Thank You!

[@PavelGarmas]

Thank you very much 😊 That wire was to wire in the front light. I decided to pre-install it if i need it later.

Terrific. The best organized, filmed, comprehensive, likeable, informative video on ANY subject matter I have seen since KZbin began. We are all lucky that there are folks like Pavel Garmas tto have the know how, the patience and the organizational skills to make this video. Congratulations from Florida...

This is by far the best battery build video on KZbin. I have watched so many and spent countless hours watching others, and yet I have learned so much more watching this one alone. The detail skill and care, that you so helpfully share is superb. Thanks largely to you, I now feel confident to begin my first ebike battery build. I will of course watch all your other videos with interest. Thank You for sharing your knowledge, and the help that it gives.

I guess I have 2 best friends named Pavel now!!! My mann, FINALLY, someone who breaks this process down in an easy to understand format! I watched your other video on the block but this was the one for me and took all confusion out of building a battery. On top of that, I am going to use Molicel's so that made it even more confusing, UNTIL NOW BRO! I can finally, confidently build my battery for my bike. Even though it may be apparent, it's worth noting that you save ssoooo much building these at home. God bless you 🙏🏽 for taking an extraordinary amount of time for the rest of us who want to learn. Let me be clear, I have watched 20 videos and none of them were remotely close to what you've done here! Not even a contest. Please keep doing what you are doing!!! The adding of bms tabs, was huge as well. I was counting packs backwards, nownI just do the P 1st, then how manynof those for my series. Just can't thank you enough as you can see lol 🎉😅

[@Paul01]

Definitely a battery you can be proud of. It was great to see you soldering properly too and the reason the solder alloys better with the nickel when you sand it, is because you've removed the surface oxidation.

[@PavelGarmas]

Paul , Thank you so much mate! Appreciate your lovely comment. Regarding the scratching of the nickel, i think it does increase the surface of the grip at the same time as removing the film...acid does clean the surface but scratching makes the bond even better.

[@Paul01]

@@PavelGarmas I appreciate the effort, it's great to see some taking the time to show people how to do a proper job. Yes I'm sure the scratches will help strengthen the bond, if you sand the nickel and leave it a few days before soldering, you'll probably find its hard to solder again though. Although I wouldn't recommend it to others, I use the same technique to solder li-ion cells without putting heat into them.

[@gigimorphe6194]

Hi Pavel thank you for the comprehensive tutorial. What is the brand or model of the spot welder you using? I do work in electronics 28 year and I can see the battery is well built. One more important suggestion for you. When you run the bms ballance charging cables please don’t trust them too to run them next to each other. Keep each apart in case of mosfet shortage that lead to igniting this tiny cables so they don’t cook together. I will also check each current withdrawal and add fuses on each of the line. You need to add also an extra fuse for the output too in case of shorting the output so it’s easy if the fuse gone rather than the internal lion sheets that are winded start melting. With batteries always the best is to go for the expensive one due to manufacturing precision. I know you mentioned this on the video where you spoken about the parts for battery building. Once again thank you for your good work.

[@PavelGarmas]

Im actually in the middle of building my own custom pack made of 288 battery cells, so I need to build my own custom battery holder for top balancing (since I can't spot weld for that). If that is something you had to do im sure others including myself would love to see how you did that :) Thanks and all the best!

Thank you for watching and for the comment. Unfortunately, i only used 18650 and 21400 cells and used spot welding.

Gracias campeón, es un placer ver tus videos.😊😊😊

YES, Dude i was looking for a video like this for months. I'm building a 96v Adult "Big Wheel"

[@PavelGarmas]

Hi mate! Hopefully you found what you are looking for. Principle is the same regardless of the battery voltage. If any questions - just ask.

[@XaiMw31]

You are a Master this is pure électronic arts. You really got talent 💪👍😍

[@PavelGarmas]

I would not say master but thank you anyway : )

[@klause9105]

Very nice Video. I should have build my board on my own instead buying the Enertion Raptor2. After 1 Year the battery is down and gives just 60% Power. really cool work you are doing.

[@PavelGarmas]

Thank you mate. Do appreciate a nice comment.

Finally got round to watching this and it's pretty awesome to be fair mate. I'm not planning on building my own pack soon, but I will be getting one made early next year. This video helped me a lot with little details I wasn't sure about like a suitable BMS. I never really understood BMS' properly at all actually. Now I know for sure a charge only BMS is perfect for what I need and a smart BMS is very much what I need as I'm really interested in monitoring the health of the individual cells. But if I ever do make my own pack, this is the video I will be following. Much respect!

[@PavelGarmas]

Michael! Thank you so much! Glad that you liked the video...it did take a lot of effort to film and edit. Awesome that you got some knowledge out of it. Super happy.

Cutting and rolling the nickle strip into essentially a wire fairing for the 8 gauge was extremely clever.

This video is SOOOOO Good! Great Job and Thank you!

[@PavelGarmas]

Thank you so much! Got a new one almost ready - block battery for the mountainboards.

Wow! What a lovely comment! Thank you so much mate. Does mean a lot. It does take a lot of time and effort to make tutorials like this and it does feel very nice when people appreciate it. I do really hope this video will help you and others to build a battery pack. By the way, are you on my Facebook group ESK8FREEDOM? Join mate...it is a place for my friends and followers. Happy holidays to you and your family .

I like that blue battery with the primer in the middle. I have a few of those myself, lol

[@troyl5929]

Wow this is what I've been looking for.

@@PavelGarmas Do you have any experience with Tattu Lipo batteries? I'm torn between this: www.genstattu.com/ta-25c-14000-6s1p-as150.html#reviews-link Which has 14000mah and 25c or the 12000mah turnigy graphene which is 15c and only 12000mah for slightly more.

Awesome, thank you!

Much better intro and quick health and safety. I like the beats too. More than enough as a safety feature to protect you and your channel and also for us to think first before attempting. Great stuff! I'll make a cuppa, and now I'll be quiet. Listen and learn. Thanks Pavel. I might contact you in the future with an idea I have ;-)

[@mike-ology22]

At 37 minutes you have the two packs side by side, what dangers would there be if you accidentally touched them together? When doing your build in this video, what must we NOT do to make sure we are working safely? I like the series connection you made. I thought about pre-soldering it and then welding it but there is not enough space, so a double layer and the way you wrapped it around is a clever idea and super strong with excellent flexibility.

[@PavelGarmas]

Thank you kindly.

[@riazkhan5207]

Love the way u Explain 💕

[@double_0_6ix26]

Am looking to build another board next year but this time with an ion pack. Exactly whats needed for first timers who are looking to build one, Can be very off putting as the results can be deadly. So its nice to have this bible to refer back to. Well done for the efforts on this vid mate. I know it will be heavily used by many out there. A++

[@PavelGarmas]

So nice to hear mate! Really appreciate a nice comment. This community means a lot to me and i do everything to help. Good luck with your build and if any questions- catch me on ESK8FREEDOM FACEBOOK group.
