and then post the results in its own thread, probably start monday with new battery
im just going to play with the magnets now in this thread
* how do I put ebc-a20 in thread title*
yes, I started the test, ill put it in a new thread tomorrow. all that thread will be is the first cycle, then ill cycle 49 times, then the 50th cycle. ill do 1 charge/discharge graph and that's it, ill post a chart for every 50 cycles, that's it, nothing else. im just going to keep this as a working thread for testing different magnets. if magnets work then ill post a simple barebones thread on how to build a cheap battery using magnets and plasti dip.
thanks, you can save money if your not running high amps, you can run 5 amps continuous with a 1inch x 1-3/8 copper tape on 18650 even smaller magnet and no temperature change is present. but add some copper and crank up the ampsMorbidlyObeseKoala wrote: ↑Jun 16 2020 9:21amI am pretty interested in this concept. I know there is a majority here that say just get a spot welder but this offers more flexibility in swapping out a bad cell and doesn't need specialized tools to assemble. Additionally, if you were to change the shape of the battery for another application or added range, you can do that without tearing up the ends of the cells.
For someone that can never make up their mind on a configuration or which project should get the battery, this is desirable. Especially if investing a fair amount of money into brand new cells.
thanks, the 40T cycle test im doing in the other thread is using 3/8x1/8x1/8 ring magnets to see if they last. ive got a molicel p42a coming and im going to use these new magnets with the slug tape on that cycle test.
Nice. I've been wondering about those Molicels for a while. They have some impressive discharge curves .
