I am looking to build some 18650 Battery battery packs for an autonomous vehicle
Does the space or anyone at the space have access to a battery welder I could use at all please
I would get one but I am unlikely to use it more than very very occasionally
the space doesn’t but it is something that’s been discussed before.
@electrotechs, any thoughts ?
I did see one of eBay the other day if thats any help ?
Courty
Thanks
a member offered to do for me but in the end I ordered a battery pack made up
maybe a pledge could be set up ?
IIRC, it was held back by H&S concerns, which may or may not have been reasonable.
I had some reasonable worries about handling small tubes of aluminium and copper filled with combustible fuel and electrically charged which if exposed to a short circuit or overheat could catch fire.
But if anyone else is ok with that, is fine, I just don’t take responsibility for it .
But , really, I would like any of you to watch this before decide:
We would need to do a proper risk assessment for this - and work out how/if we can make it safe enough for the Space
I think there’s scope for us to get a 737G (£100 on Ebay). Obviously only allowing members to use it after a brief induction and full understanding of the risks etc.
