    hello guys. This battery i make 3 years ago and it's still working, for charching i use SKYRC iMAX B6AC V2 charger and i don't need any BMS for this. For battery security I'm not afraid, becouse the board where i use this battery already has security board. If you don't have experiance working with li-ion battery please don't repeat this at home. Thanks

    But it's a 3S7P battery with 2600mah cells. At 1C he'd be getting 2.6A per string which is fine for the nickel used, but it's 18.2A in total, which is clearly too much for the little nickel tabs he's using to connect to the BMS. He should be using copper for the BMS tabs. He's making his discharge claims on the 18650 cells alone. Each cell has max continuous discharge of 40A (7P = 280A) and pulse discharge of 60A (7P = 420A). The BMS he's using clearly states 60A @ 5:09. There's all kinds of carelessness in this video.

What you are claiming is dangerous and viewers without much knowledge will hook this pack up to their car, thinking that it would work. The pack will definitely fail and a fully charged li-ion pack that fails is extremely dangerous!

    Thank you for pointing this out. I still can't believe we haven't had an update about it blowing up. Not only is that but the battery series is completely absurd. You can't jump circuit the chain of positives over to negative and then back again. That creates a short. This is the worst case of DC in series and parallel I've came across with besides the guy that does this stuff that blows up on purpose.

He did make a 12V 18.2Ah pack, but the warning about the current load is still very much valid. The nickel strips can't handle the current and 40A continuous on those cells would surely cause problems. I however don't see a problem with his circuit wiring? He first welded up the parallel strips, connecting all the positives and negatives of the cells to create parallel columns and then he created a series chain with them by snaking around from + to - to +, creating a 3s chain. What I don't get is why he used so little nickel to create the series connections (ballpark is to use at least 1 strip per cell in both parallel and series connections). The pack definitely works, just not with the advertised current draw.

    From the looks of it you are using Sony/Murata VTC5 cells, they have a capacity of 2600mah and a max continuous discharge rate of 20A so really the max current you can continuously draw is about 140A, that is still a lot but nowhere near the 420A. If your cells really could do 420A together then your capacity wouldn’t be 18,200mah, it would be lower. Other than that, great video!

    ALL wires must have mechanical connection together before soldering and heat shrink tubing. Twist bare wires together first, then solder. This helps you not to have cold solder joints and have a possible short or open circuit. Use a buck/boost converter for different voltages. It can be affixed to case externally or internally if you have the room. No special tape or paper insulation needed - use cardboard/pasteboard and hot glue to isolate and hold down battery. Leave top glued at spots with hot glue so you can open battery box to make changes if needed.

    That's assuming the cells have a discharge rate of 2A. There are 18650s on the market that can output 30A continuous, and as he wired those 21 cells in a 3s 7p configuration, that would make the equation 30x7 = 210A continuous. That's still not 280A, and I doubt he's using those exact cells, but it had to be said.

I wish their was a voice over for the important bits as one wrong move/connection can be really bad. If you’d ever make another battery pack video it be great too see how to make a smaller battery that could be used to hook up lights on a model. I used a standard 3 wire RC servo for led lighting around the model is what’s in my head but no idea how to power it. I’m thinking as in RC lighting usually is a 7.2 V Li-Ion battery id like to use 2 18650’s in series for a pack that could be hooked up too 2 sets of LED’s for each battery pack as I get confused when soldering lots of wires together for one power source.

Nothing wrong with going to a higher rated conductor either.

    Well shown building process! Three remarks: First. The cells seem to have quite different voltages. For safety normally you would first (dis)charge all cells to storage voltage (3.6-3.8 volt). Second: I like the casing. Would it not be easier to turn the upper part (cap) 180 degrees and use a longervthick red and black power cable towards the outer connectors? Now you have to fold two stiff thick wires to close the cap. Third: You glue the cap of the casing to the lower part. To open it you will probably have to destroy the casing.

    That lipo is rated for 5000mah or 5amps x60C = 300Amps which gets closer to 420A as you stated but there is no way those 18650 will put out 280A especially over those .2 mm nickel strips. Those might do 20A on a good day in short bursts with out melting them but you only have 4 linking the strings together. That's a max of 80A. Which is still impressive for a small battery pack and it is a nice build. However those 40A 18650 are also way over rated at 40A. Do an actual load test on one of those and see...

    @@SVMSICE The short answer is this is a long answer and I don't even know the question. SLA and li-on are apples and oranges apart. First, SLA is not a good choice for anything that that needs drained and re-charged. LA Batteries in cars have a lot of cranking amps but are only made to be used momentarily until the engine starts. Draining them reduces their life greatly. Deep cycle SLA are made to be more drained as in for boat or trolling motor use but still do not have the capacity to be charged anywhere near what a li-on can be. Plus there is weight. So my first question is what are you trying to build? What is your target voltage and amps? And what are you putting it in?

    @@jamescole6846 ok I’ve been doing a lot more looking into this and yeah I’m a newbie so I wasn’t clear on a lot of things. I’m a lot more familiar now with types of 18650 batteries. I see why you couldn’t answer. So what would you suggest battery wise (18650) to make a 12 volt like his, same case, that’s going to get used half dozen or more times a year? It will probably come close to draining the batteries after usage. Well actually I’m not sure if it would come close to draining it with this type of battery but it comes close to draining my 12 volt SLA battery I’m using right now. That’s why I was think about building one of these versus buying one of these because I like to try new projects like this.

    That's not 12v, it's 11.1v . 12v is from 10v to 14.4v due to use cases. This stops charging at 12.6v, so a real 12v pack is actually a 16.8v fully charged.

    I would personally say 3S is closer to 12V than 4S. Using the latter, it stops charging at 12.6V, with a nominal of 11.1V. Most 12V devices should be able to run on 11.1V just fine. 4S means that 12V (or 10V, depending on the cut off you choose) is the minimum voltage, and the maximum voltage is 16.8V. 16.8V is likely too high for most 12V devices and might cause damage. The only way to get a true 12V pack is to either use LiFe cells (or LiFePO4), which are 3.2V nominal (4 x 3.2 = 12.8V nominal) or to use a buck/boost regulator, to provide a constant 12V.

    Always go by the maximum output of the power source and not the load that is expected to be placed on the source, battery or AC line. If the power source does become shorted, at least your battery links will not be fried, which is the best reason for the battery to use a fuse directly from the positive terminal to the load as close to the battery as possible.

There is a popular battery powered solid state guitar amp (excellent preamp/amp design) that runs around off of a 20ah 12V lead acid battery. There is interest in a lithium/ion upgrade. I could assemble the battery packs at perhaps net 15.00 per hour? Replacement lead acid is only 20.00 off Amazon and it being solid state the amp runs a long time off of the 20ah batt.

    Hi, Interesting and cheap spot welding solution you made yourself there. I liked that the solution was clean, however as an instructional video (which it looked like you were making). Then it would make sense for newbies to have an idea of what you are doing. Not adding a BMS isnt exactly a good practice. Even during discharging you can encounter that some cells might go below the recommended voltage and although that might not be a short term problem it will most definitely be a long term problem. As for the overchange protection you had a balance charging from your RC hobby charger. But it is also importent to note that it was in balance mode and not standard charging mode. Having similar age cells will making the balancing easier on the BMS so you might get away without using a BMS if you set a cutoff in min and max voltage before you can hit the marks. Anyhow I would like to emphasize that the whole package looks clean and is one of the better videos on YT with diy packs. You also clearly have an idea what you are doing during soldering. What i dont like is the Current 280A , Pulse current 420A part where im guessing you are referring to the lipo pack ? Its misleading. For all the people wondering howmuch current you can pull through it then the recommended discharge rate per cell is capacity * 0,5 up to 0,8 so for a 2000mah cell you are talking 1000-1600mah per cell * amount in parallel . Your busbar in this case nickel strip will also play a factor in this. Keep up the good job.
