My 30Q 12s4p battery build (aka the Stimm Pack)

Hey guys, I just got done with my 12s4p 30Q Samsung cell battery.

Here is my build pictures. I used 737 silicon glue and fish paper to make sure everything was done properly. I also used 10mm 0.2 gauge nickel strip (doubled up for my serial connections).

Hope this helps anyone attempting to build a battery themselves!

great pictures! exactly what I wanted to look at today. how many cells total were there 48? =)

48 total (4 in parallel and 12 in series), which gives me 50.4 volts 12x4.2v.

got question about bms wiring. if i use a wire for series (awg) where will can put the phase wire? (positive side or in the negeative) or does it matter where?.

If I understand you correctly the 12 BMS wires just need to be connected anywhere you made the series connections. There really isn’t a positive or neg side to that.

it does not, bms is just looking at voltage at that position.

Nice work… do you make batt packs?

@ripcurldog I suggest u copy what you just wrote and create a new thread and past it over for that this is a old thread that has nothing to do with what your asking

Is this truely nickle ?

‎ nvm.

Hello, very Nice battery build. I bought 50 cells today and plan on the same config as you. Can u please tell me what BMS u used and what kinda spot welder that will do for a few batteri builds. also the layout config of plus and minus ?
