I’m wondering how practical it would be to drill and tap terminals to add posts to batteries like this: https://batteryhookup.com/products/2x-sunwoda-lf314-314ah-lfp-prismatic-cells-grade-a-qualified-rohs-certified-ultra-long-life-10-000-cycles
The description says that you can only drill 5mm at most. Anybody do something like this before? I do have a shitty Harbor Freight drill press and couple hand tap wrenches.
Yeah, these are 0.5C cells, meaning they can safely discharge 157A (I would be using them for offgrid solar), so those little nickle strips would melt. I think TiG welding these would be extremely dangerous and produce too much heat (and I’ve never TiG welded before; just badly MiG welded a couple times). By “welding” in the description they mean commercial laser welders.
