UPDATE: Reviews section refreshed, redesigned, searchable: Go take a look
Ok so the strip of metal from the cells to the fuse and circuit board rusted through. I've joined it up with some aluminium foil and it works fine. So I know what the issue is. Is it a good enough fix? If I tape it up will it work?
Should I not even risk it and solder it when I can borrow an iron?
Do it properly and have a search for exploding li ions on youtube
you will see why .
No vested interest at all trout?
😉
no he just doesnt want to see you hospitalised
its in your best interest not to ride your bike with a bit of tinfoil making up a circuit
Pook you asked for advice, you got it then made an uncalled for snide comment.
Bellend 🙄
Ok ok. I apologise trout. Perhaps it was a bit harsh. It was meant in jest. Cheers for the suggestion to solder.
However, the strip of metal is slim. About as slim as a fold of tin foil. what metal will the original strip be? And would an aluminium strip of some sort do the job? Maybe not foil but something similar?
Edit: don't think it warranted the last comment though.
Crikey.
No Offence taken Pook it was as trail rat said .
I only had you best health at heart
you cant solder aluminium so it will be some very cheap recycled steel
there will be a lot of those tabs rusting away soon
I bought 2 P7's from DX, one has been fine yet the other one was pish but next year i will be buying one from Mr trout 🙂
Right o- cheers trout. Much appreciated
