Can someone please help me out? I'm down to the last step on this project. The final wire
2-3 more beads of solder and I'm home free... But I can't solder onto aluminum to make my electrical contact. I need to run a small bead of solder around the - contact rim of the driver to the pill.
Is it even possible to solder onto Al?
I am using a 100 watt weller iron, a little solder paste, and the same rat-shack solder I used for everything else. I have soldered probably ~30+ battery packs for my RC cars over the years, so I am familiar with soldering big heat absorbing objects. Or so I thought, this ones got me:thinking:![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
