Nickel changes colors to what you see in about 400 and more deg. Celsius. Which means it must be getting hot (locally).999zip999 said:With all those spot welds is it getting hot ?
Obvious tip is to do only a single spot weld on one cell and then move to another cell, and come back to the first cell (for next weld) after finishing "the row".
What I noticed today is that (for recycled laptop cells) welding to the original tab-remainings is:
1. Much more random regarding the strength.
2. Much more colorful (welds look burned more)
3. Because of above: not recommended.
Best welds I get are on the original cell terminal area; the four spot welding points done by laptop manufacturer must be grinded (I use dremel). It is better not to grind the whole terminal but only these 4 points. These are my observations.
I also clean surfaces with extraction naphtha.
