New design for M6-2x18650 in series battery holder

[Roland Gama]

The main objective of the design was to get rid of the flexible wire I have seen in other designs with no messy nuts to tighten either.

Very nice. Where is the link to your sales thread? (wink)

Thanks Starlight.
Not in the sales dept.(yet).
The objectives of getting rid of the wire and resetting nut were very successfully met using a spring loaded disc.
Also this design can be improved on and the spring loaded disc concept can be
incorporated in other battery holders with different battery configurations.

so you're saying this is a 2x18650 in series?

Yes, this a series connected pair of 18650s.

Yes, this a series connected pair of 18650s.

nice! so is the series connection made using one of the connecting rods?

 

[Roland Gama]

Yes. Your are perfectly correct.

Much resistance from the spring?

The spring is not part of the circuit. All contacts are made of brass, riveted and then soldered (though not needed).
