It's just I picture some noob with a soldering pencil getting blasted in the face with an exploding LiPo because he got the bright idea to use one without a clue how to do it safely.
Oh, I've thought in terms of a screw mount on the tabs to make the cell more replaceable. I would have done it, but I don't have the height clearance in my enclosure. Brass solders very nicely so a brass stud would be easy to install into a PCB thru-hole. If a tightly fitting slot is cut into the tabs, voila, screw mount terminals.
Oh, I'm saying this in a another post because it merits one.To all those that have 30W soldering pencils or any other wattage. Grab them all right now. Walk out to your trash bin. Drop them in. Walk away. Now go online and buy yourself a variable temperature soldering station. They're not that expensive, less than $100.YOU CAN NOT SOLDER ELECTRONICS WELL WITH A PENCIL.They're fine for making stained glass and burning designs in leather, but that's about it.
Can 2 LiPo 20c 1200mah in parallel, be used in anything other than a regulated I.E a mech or semi mech?
Sure. Just use fuses for protection.Formula: (C-Rating) X (AH) = Maximum Constant Amp Draw20c x 2.4 (2400mah) = 48 AmpsMax battery voltage using a 0.5 ohm coil: 4.2v / 0.5 ohms = 8.4 AmpsMax battery voltage using a 0.2 ohm coil: 4.2v / 0.2 ohms = 21 Amps
What is your "C" rating on your 18650? Previously you said Li-Po 20C.How low of a resistance is his sub-ohm?
