hey can i do this with a 4s if so can i contact you?

Interesting. I want to make one myself..But I wish there was a video showing you how to actually make a battery pack. I have searched 100s of videos and they are all the same. Add the batteries, add the BMS board and it's done!!! Which wire goes where? On the BMS what is P+ P- Exactly where and why? What is the tape you use? If this video was an hour long and it took you step by step for dummies. I would watch the whole thing.! 🙂

Awesome video, thanks for taking the time to share. A little constructive criticism. I would recommend a soldering iron with a little heavier tip. I also like to hit those larger joints with a flux pen to get a better solder flow. Your + and - connections looked maybe a little cold to me.

Thank you once again for the video. Some time back I requested a few info from you. Perhaps amidst the busy schedule you’d have overlooked, which is understandable. Here are the requests once again, kindly respond. 1) Do you sell PURE (99.6%) Nickel strips for 2P design through your AMAZON store? If so, please point to that link. If not please recommend a HONEST Vender who sells the same. 2) The Spot welding on those batteries look so perfect. I’m sure that welding machine must be a SUNKKO. What model is that and do you sell the same model, through your AMAZON store? FYI I use SUNKKO 788H that is so useless, that the welded Ni strip can be peeled off very easily. Any help from your side will be highly appreciated. Thanks and regards. Sree...

Hello Wes That Tech Guy, I made my first 3s batterypack few days ago. Using 3 x 4 = 12 cells. I did not solder or weld them. I used the spring loaded 3 cell plastic containers, and glued them back to back opposite directions. No cell touches eachother. But from the top and bottom I attached lot of wires, positives, negatives, and balance wires that goes together to the BMS at one end. Then I ducktaped the whole thing. I am using it to run powerful 100watt LEDs on my bike. Is it safe so far?

Mark Cooper Agree, there could be tons of improvements, but i think its a good start. That particular BMS has a high current shut off i believe, and short circuit protection built in, but always wouldn’t hurt to be 100% safe and add some fuses to protect each cell from blowing up.

@Nitrxgen

5 жыл бұрын

Well... that BMS is designed for 3S and he does actually connect it the way it's intended, for the most part, with 4 nickel strips connecting to each end set of parallels. You can't really balance each cell per parallel because... they're parallel, they're connected to each other. The length of each strip may impact how balanced it is over time but those nickel strips should be pretty good while I reckon. I'm not a fan of this particular video but I dunno if I can fault him that much. I would've done a better job attaching the BMS and output cables though. I would've gotten a less cheap BMS perhaps with the wires already attached.

Looks super clean but, as others note, mostly due to lacking charge balancing.

Soldering looks a bit dodgy but still an awesome video.

I have only 1 minor thing I'd add. If it was me, I'd carefully scratch off some solder mask around the power input pads on the BMS board. That way you could add more solder, get a better solder joint, and maybe even use a heavier gauge wire.

Hi, Could you tell me if you charge the batteries via the BMS board or how do you charge and with what equipment.

How do you wire BMS?Please explain it or give some link.
