WOW bought one of these devices for 25 dollars on ebay. Now all I need is 200 dollars worth of leads as thick as my wrist and a power supply bigger than my house LOL. Now i know why those guys on ebay didn't show it working or what was actually needed to run it. I worked as a lab technician a ways back and we had a spot welder as big as the power supply but it worked a lot better but it wold never work for spot welding batteries, because it only welded with two fat fat prongs top and bottom. But need must and I suppose a car battery and a set of jumper leads will work just the same. Thank you very much for the video, i never would have worked out how to use the gadget without you I am eternally grateful for all you efforts in showing us how to set up this device really I am eternally in your debt. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU so much
you can buy a rechargeable one now. it comes with a usb cable, and goes for about the same price. No need for a power supply with transformer/power supply. Or you can make your own welder with an old MOT out of a microwave and id say 20-30 bucks worth of parts.
You need the big black wires or else the power delivered to the contacts will be reduced. The small black wire is connected to the microswitch in the handle and this triggers the electronics in the big black box to deliver the timed power to the electrodes. You cannot use a car battery as there is no way to control the power to the electrodes. The electrodes will be connected to the battery directly so as soon as the electrodes connect to the nickel strip power completing the circuit the weld will occur without power control. The power control will be how long you keep the electrodes touching the nickel strip. Obviously this is unworkable as the welds will be horrible. You essentially need the complete setup for the spot welder to work properly.
I saw a video using a similar pen with a microwave modified transfirmer but I still don't know where or what the small cable with a connector at the end is used for.
Hello! Sorry, i dont get what this black wire with jack is for, could you tell me?? Can i use this pen with another adjustable welding station (with not connecting that jack anyway)?? What is that jack for??
if i but this my welding rod machine do i need some kind electrical timer for that small The small black wire connect Plug? like install my machine inside? or how its know when start and stop spot welding? Electrical circuit diagram? and what convert parts i need?
The product description says you can supply 800A of current. I'm not too sure about that, but I guess like with common welding it's all about testing and finding the suitable current.
Sunkko is a professional welder for commercial use, so i think this diy handle can't beat sunkko. But it's enough for me. You can find how i built a battery pack using this handle in my channel.
@@Laamlee-yt The sunkko HB-70 welding pen is not that good: the wires are thin and it has no integrated switch, so you must use the pedal to trigger it. With this design you have much bigger copper conductors and you can spot weld with one hand only. I'll make one myself....
I will try using a cheap starter relay (needs ~1A to activate and should be able to handle >500A) - activated by smaller relay (only needs 0.0375A) - activated by the switch (rated only for 0.05A) in the pen. The big relay should be able to withstand the impulse and will only allow the 12V of the battery to be connected to the pen when the trigger is pressed. I will report whether it is possible or not 😊
I purchased one of these only to find out I need the "welder" as well, the seller refunded my money. He has now changed the wording on his listing. I still have it, what do you suggest that I but or make so that I can have a machine that will nickel strips for battery's
Hi I have one of these and can't seem to get it work. My questions are does it use 12V and at how much amps. Also what type/brand of power supply are you using
phero when welding time is high, it leaves burn marks, destroy the tips and heat up the cells. Current should be the highest and time should be minimum
Hi, can you please do a favor can you provide all the dimensions of this product like diameter and of the springs, thickness and width of the copper plates, and the dimension of the blue box. i want to make this as this product is not available in my country and the cost of importing this is very high as high as thrice the price of product so can you please give me the dimensions.
Why did you want to change the welding pen? is this better than the previous one? im thinking which one of the 2 to buy, the previous one comes with a cable and the connectors as well
6AWG to 4AWG or 16mm2 to 25mm2 is usually recommended. Get silicone insulated wire if possible for the most flexibility but welding cable with EPDM is also fairly flexible. Depending on the type of spot welder you are using having too large of cables can be a bad thing.
sorry to say but i think your video is not telling truth as on the first weld there was 3 or 4 welds you only done 1 so why is that ? Then the welds on batteries you did not show how strong the welds are why is that ? to me it seems your hiding something but good video thanks.
Wow that’s a lot of money just to spot weld 18650 batteries you know they sell a spot welder anywhere from $19-$25 that would do better than this machine just need a car battery LOL
Friend , you do not know How to use / apply .. You have use too much High Current energy ! You cannot Connect straight to Transformer or Car Battery ! You got to have the Box in the Video ! Its quite Simple just a Transformer with 50-100 Amps but must have Current Regulator using FETS Transistors and Control Timer to varies the welding Time as needed ! Thats all ! Can build one by yourself but requires knowlede in Electronics !

Sorry, It's just a pen only 7$ in my country. Not a spot welder, hahahhaaa.....

this video is very informative. I just ordered one but that small cable is to tell the black box when to send the power through the two copper poles.
clickbait warning, you need a $$$ spot welder supply with its timer, this is only the hand probe
Hello, what machine do you use to connect the spot welder?
Yes the base will run you about $225 extra
You need the big black wires or else the power delivered to the contacts will be reduced.

What is that jack for??
Thanks for this question. I have a same question but the author couldn't answer this ! What for the black wire with jack ???
this shows us its functionality. ALTHOUGH WHAT WILL WE NEED TO PLUG INTO THE ACTIVATION BUTON?
Is connecting those big wires mandatory? Can't we use small connector they provided?
For 90A YES!
This handle is probably still the best value for money IMO
Muito legal, uma pergunta esse cabinho fino é ligado ao que? Alguma fonte separada? Se for de quantos volts?
12 Volt 100A (Minimum)
Where does the small cable with a connector go.?
Hello, great explanation! But what kaint of device is it that the replaced cables are connected to? Thaknks!
if i but this my welding rod machine do i need some kind electrical timer for that small The small black wire connect Plug? like install my machine inside? or how its know when start and stop spot welding? Electrical circuit diagram? and what convert parts i need?
What type of model is the black box? I only have the device that you hold in your hand when you score. thank you 🤗

What type of spot welder do you use to connect the welder trigger to ?
Hello. Where is negative and positive wire for connect?
You could plug this into a inverter welder and put it on the lowest setting? My welder goes down to approximately 30 amps? Any reply appreciated 👍
The product description says you can supply 800A of current. I'm not too sure about that, but I guess like with common welding it's all about testing and finding the suitable current.
800 and whole holding it in my hand? No thanks I like my fingers@@carverevolition1
How is it working for you? Better than the fixed type pen like the one Sunkko makes? Worth the upgrade?
Sunkko is a professional welder for commercial use, so i think this diy handle can't beat sunkko. But it's enough for me. You can find how i built a battery pack using this handle in my channel.

can i use the 12 v car 70ah battery as a power source for this spot welding pen? pen itself switches off the power after the application, right?
No
I will try using a cheap starter relay (needs ~1A to activate and should be able to handle >500A) - activated by smaller relay (only needs 0.0375A) - activated by the switch (rated only for 0.05A) in the pen.

What is the black box?
good idea to use the nickel strip to fit the cable into the screwable welding connectors :-) Greetings from Germany
Say what????

Can you connect it to a regular welder for rig welding?
For sure 👍
Nice video! What voltage and curret did you set your power supply at? Thank you! 😀👍
Sorry i don't know what you mean. There are two adjustment knob for current and timing. Current about 90A, timing at 15~20 knob level

6AWG to 4AWG or 16mm2 to 25mm2 is usually recommended. Get silicone insulated wire if possible for the most flexibility but welding cable with EPDM is also fairly flexible. Depending on the type of spot welder you are using having too large of cables can be a bad thing.
Hi! I’m new to this......
What kind of trafo do I need to connect the spotwelder to?
I can’t find one with the connector for the switch?

Is it used to spot weld Aluminum,?
Won't work as aluminum resistance is quite low. Aluminum spot welding requires very high current.
Where can i buy for the welder machine itself? I already purchase the pen, but what about the gadget itself where i can plugged the pen?
Dude, You need a spot welder. It's just a welding pen
