That worked out well, lots of copper and no thin sections.Finally I have some sort of battery design:
It has taken forever for me to get this far

Can you post your listing of the product you ordered? Because it probably defines the thickness of the nickel they use. And you could just order the same thickness nickel, in separate strip form, for your test welds to find your settings.Alright, so now it is pretty much no turning back as I ordered the busbars.
I asked if they could include a few extra of the small square pieces that welds to the cells, so I could do some testwelds on old cells.
But they couldent understand what I wanted, after some back and forth they asked me to send a picture.
I sent this, and got the reply "those are included" and they sent a picture of a battery pack with welded busbars.
I gave up after that
Don't feel bad, I just put 3.6kg of copper onto my battery!About 2kg for one battey
Maybe I should have asked for 0,5mm thick, they suggested 1mm and I didnt disagree.
As I dont have any weak spots really, 0,5mm should be more than enough I think.
My weakest is 3 parallel cells have to share a 30mm wide "passage". So now it is 30mm2, in 0,5mm it would still be 15mm2.
Problem is that it is not nickel, I think it is nickel plated copper. And there is a slit in the middle.Can you post your listing of the product you ordered?

10p of molicell p45b, so I suppose 450A, maybe I can go a little higer for my short 2sec bursts? 500 or so.What's your anticipated peak battery current?
Oy, that'll be tricky. Keep us postedProblem is that it is not nickel, I think it is nickel plated copper. And there is a slit in the middle.
