A 10m x 5mm x 0.2mm nickel strip is commonly used in the assembly of DIY lithium-ion battery packs, such as those for electric vehicles, power tools, or solar energy storage systems. Here's a breakdown of why this specific size and material is important:
Key Features of the 10m x 5mm x 0.2mm Nickel Strip:
Length (10m):
Provides ample material for connecting many battery cells in series or parallel, especially in larger battery packs.
Width (5mm):
Suitable for use with various battery types, such as 18650 or 21700 cells. The 5mm width provides enough surface area for an efficient connection without covering too much of the battery's surface.
Thickness (0.2mm):
This thickness is optimal for balancing electrical conductivity and durability. Thicker strips are more durable but harder to weld, while thinner strips may have higher resistance.
Nickel Material:
Nickel is chosen for its excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance. Pure nickel strips are preferred over nickel-plated steel, as they ensure better conductivity and longevity in high-drain battery applications.
Applications:
DIY Battery Pack Building:
This strip is essential in connecting individual cells in series or parallel to achieve the desired voltage and capacity in custom-built lithium-ion battery packs.
Spot Welding:
The strip is usually applied to battery terminals using a spot welder, which securely bonds the strip to the cells without generating too much heat that could damage the battery.
