It depends on what you are doing.
If you are making a low-amp battery pack using 0.15mm thick nickel strips, the Malectrics can save you some money.
Copper is four times as conductive as nickel, and has four times less resistance to current, which results in better performance and fewer battery watts being converted into waste-heat.
Sooo...0.10mm copper sheet is equal to 0.40mm nickel.
Any conductive material will work for the parallel equalization, and nickel is fine. In fact, nickel-plated steel is best, because it slows equalization, to keep the cells cooler. (The nickel-plating eliminates corrosion).
If you want to use the copper/nickel sandwich for high series amps, buy the kWeld.
