Hello guys.
I'm from Brazil, I'm talking using the automatic translator, sorry for any mistakes.
I have seen some projects released that dispense solder. I imagined and tested various techniques until I got to the last prototype.
I used brass screw, I applied 5A current for more than 5 min and the temperature was below 30ºC. I believe that I support a lot more, but I did not have something more powerful to test at the time (I used an alogeno heater as controlling resistor with a dimmer). Using the original, spring-loaded connectors with only 2A the temperature was above 65 ° C.
By using the inner nut I can lock the cell turning the screw, gets very firm! Using a small piece of aluminum foil I increase the contact surface of the screw with the pole of the cell.
I hope it will inspire similar projects and enhancements.
