battery tab welding service?

[chance91]

Hello, all. Been working on a battery pack project, and I need a few (ok, 17) tabs welded. I'm working on some laptop batteries and trying to upgrade the cells, but the layout requires some interesting tabs mounted on.

Anyone have a suggestion or offer the service themselves? I'm not much interested in making my own diy setup, and others are very costly to buy.

I believe you have to weld on the tabs, not spider, due to heat concerns with li ion batteries, right?

Where are you located? I would first call Batteries Plus if one is nearby. I know they can weld on tabs, just not sure about lithium ion.

You are correct. Never try to solder to Li-Ion cells. I think Battery Space still does this.
