DIY nickel-plating onto copper cell connections

[Animalector]

I'm waiting for someone to actually confirm this has worked with a car battery style tab welder

..just to save me searching for this test....has anyone verified the actual effects of the plating when spot welding copper ?

I just defeated 0.2 plated copper ^^

Nice. With what settings, what type of welder?

new info for me is that sodium benzotriazole is a good copper corrosion inhibitor. you can just dip the copper. haven't done it yet. electroplating is pretty damn fun though
