{"product_id":"the-nickel-point-portable-spot-welder","title":"The Nickel Point | 8000W Portable Spot Welder, 1200A Double Pulse","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product-narrative\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilding a battery pack is the point where a hobby becomes a responsibility. Thirty cells, sixty welds, and one weak joint is enough to raise resistance, generate heat and turn a neatly assembled pack into a hazard. The Nickel Point exists to make that joint consistent rather than hopeful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt runs a double pulse discharge at up to 1200 amps with 8000 watts of peak power, adjustable from zero upward, and that adjustability is what allows the same tool to weld 0.1 mm nickel strip for a small pack and 0.3 mm strip for a high current build without scorching the cell beneath it. The welding pen is built for conductivity and low contact resistance, so the energy goes into the joint instead of warming the cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe machine carries its own 9600 mAh lithium battery, which means it works on a bench, in a workshop or on a garage floor without a tether. Input runs from 100 to 240 volts through the supplied adapter, output is 8.4 volts, and the ABS shell is surface anodised to resist wear from the sort of handling a workshop tool receives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe whole unit measures roughly 15 x 9.8 x 5 cm with a 47 cm pen, so it stores in a tool drawer rather than claiming bench space. A one metre roll of nickel tape and a sheet of sanding paper are included so the first pack can be welded the day the parcel arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eA battery pack is only as good as its worst weld.
