      @@chench1lla no not really. But, I've never really increased the number of cells by what some could consider an unreasonable amount. I have a electronic air duster that lasts like 3 minutes at full blast which isn't enough time to really do anything. I opened it up and it had three batteries in series. So I took three batteries and combined them in series in the same way that they were in the device. I hooked those two up in parallel and connected them to the BMS. It doesn't last twice as long but it does last a good bit longer. You just need to make sure that if you're trying to increase capacity. You put them in parallel. Putting them in series increases the amount of voltage they can produce.

    @darkride196 ปีที่แล้ว +43

    Hey there.
    The first issue I wanted to note is the use of the copper in the heatsink replacement. Without a heat pipe, You're looking at the quick thermal saturation of any interface or its materials without a meaningful transfer of energy to the actual heatsink added to the copper. This is because based on Thermal Conductivity alone Copper does a good job of absorbing heat, but it doesn't do a great job of transferring it. Copper sits around 400W/Mk of thermal conductivity, while a heat pipe can be in excess of 5000-100,000W/Mk.
    This means that the heatsink would be slow to heat and hard to cool effectively. If you were to place a heat pipe across the length of the heatsink, it would work much better, to the point where you would near instantly see a difference in temperature from the SOC to the end of your heatsink.
    Secondly, The issue with the Double battery is apparent almost instantly- due to the fact that you double capacity, you double charging times quite readily, and without the BMS to consider the second battery's health, It will assume that one battery provides the charge for both. Since the BMS only controls voltage and wear leveling, and doesn't have a way to monitor each cell individually, you can very quickly end up with a situation where you see your battery jumping around levels depending on which battery's voltage reads the highest- since they are separate cells, there is the very real possibility of the internal resistance of one cell not matching the other, causing step voltage matching. This means that the batteries face the very real possibility of mis-matched wearing and eventually diminished capacity and failure of one or more of the batteries. Usually this is corrected in BMS monitoring of multi-celled devices through what amounts to a circuit that separates the cells from one another, but ties the output together allowing them to charge individually.
    The K5 Pro works but currently you have an issue with the setup of the heatsink- right now it goes (assuming the Mfrs used a thermal pad) SOC>Thermal pad>Graphite pad>Aluminum>K5 Pro>Copper>Solder>Copper>Solder>Copper>Solder>Copper>Solder>M.2 Heatsink. All those layers cause a loss in heat transfer, reducing the effective area of the copper and essentially pocketing areas of the copper that didn't fully get brazed (if you ever shear the heatsink apart, consider looking at the shims and you'll see pockets where the solder didn't reach fully, it's simply because of the change of Flux to a gaseous state causing solder to have voids." Ideally, the removal of the aluminum and thermal pads would mitigate this entirely, if in addition you swapped to a heat-pipe design. In this case you'd see SOC>TIM/K5>Copper>Solder>Heat pipe>Solder>Heatsink. Also, you *technically* don't even need the first layer of copper attached to the heat pipe, and could attach it directly to the SOC by flattening it on one side, making sure not to crush the actual pipe. This would also decrease the weight of the build.
    A final consideration is the fact that there is an opportunity here to fab the entire outside case out of a block of copper, that you would then attach to the heat-pipe through soldering, and get passive cooling without an open area for the M.2 heatsink. At their max, these SOCs use about 10-13W of heat, meaning it can be easily dissipated passively in this regard.
    All in All it is a novel idea and i appreciate the video- just some thoughts on what I would consider. (I was someone who built their own laptop heatsinks in the 2016-2020 years, particularly for Clevos)

    You should recalibrate the battery because the phone can't really recognize that it has a bigger battery and it will have some charging problems, you can just set the capacity manually if the phone is rooted but since you can't root it, it's worth trying to recalibrate it...just for the sake of it 🙂

    • @schwuzi

      You don't need to do that. The phone doesn't know how many Ah are in the battery. It can only use the voltage as a reference. Since the batteries are in parallel the voltage will be the same and will just drop slower (or charge slower for that matter)

  • @bfbunny
    @bfbunny ปีที่แล้ว +14

    Two little advice that I think I can provide:
    I personally don't think that using copper as a heat conductor from the Soc to the fins is not very effective, even though copper is some of the most thermally conductive metal on earth. However, there is this thing called heat pipe, which is more effective than copper at conducting heat, especially at longer distances. Samsung used vapor chambers (basically a flattened out heat pipe) to cool some of their phones' Soc. Maybe you can use a heat pipe or two to get the heat of the Soc into the fins faster.
    I think the Soc of modern phones typically face towards the screen, so in this project you are likely to be cooling the back of the Soc through a metal shield, and there is a possibility that there is an air gap under this shield. It might not be too big of a concern, but for an "ultimate DIY gaming phone", it would be interesting to see whether desoldering that shield, adding a blob of thermal paste, and soldering the shield back on will help with heat dissipation.
    Other than that, great work, and thanks to you I now know an easy way to get cheap phones😆

      Great points. I thought he would desolder the shield. I always suspected that the soc will face the screen, and that somehow a better option would include both. If that's not possible, a heatsink to the back would work.
      A perfect option would add a small quiet fan, which would open the path for overclocking it a bit. I know Samsung phones have the game center power optimization which I assume overclock the phone to some extent. Otherwise Geekerwan had some crazy creations of their own. Seemed promising.

    Just a tip for playing with the sealant (and anything you can fit into a caulk gun tbh): you can buy, or in your case print, extra tips to fit most tubes, and you can cut them to specific angles.
    In the case of your sled, you can cut both sides to make a 45° angle, and with even pressue it will perfectly smudge the silicone so that you dont have to smear it with your fingers!

Googles usual shenanigans aside, this's deserving of all the subs and views he has, and a lot more.

    When you doubled the battery your amps increased so you have to reprogram the phone to the new battery capacity

    • @shiftednrifted
      @shiftednrifted ปีที่แล้ว +13

      The phone uses the same amperage, each battery drains half as fast. Percentage is based on voltage, as the battery gets more drained its voltage drops. It should all still work fine

    • @PaperKhaos
      @PaperKhaos ปีที่แล้ว +10

      Amps are pulled, not pushed. If the phone was drawing a certain current at a certain voltage then putting batteries in parallel wouldn't change the voltage and have no effect on the current drawn.
      The charging of the batteries could be an issue though ...

    • @lands1459

    As a Samsung certified repair technician that battery puncture scared the life out of me, that's why we use plastic (HDPE or PC) tools when removing the batteries manually.
    I'm glad you are okay and that you had that battery drained properly, especially with where you punctured it that area is a spot where two layers overlap so even with it fully drained it could've sparked when bridging the two sections of the battery and caused a fire.

      Any phone cooler fan will not make a measurable difference in temperature without making a lot of noise, as Zac did adding thermal mass, even with little to no active cooling it's better for low power usage, adding an m.2 cooler over the phone chasis would lead to similar results without voiding warranty.

    Create the outer shape of the phone and make a hole for a fan in the back And combine two batteries, as Zed did, for processor speed, screen speed, graphics processor speed, and RAM speed, and make a small heat sink that matches a fan. Place the fan in the middle of a phone and wrench the heatsink from dependent to fan, even if you put 2

  • @mndlessdrwer
    @mndlessdrwer 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    In case you wanted the absolute best performance in thermal transfer, there are a handful of companies that will just sell you pre-bent, pre-flattened heat pipes of various dimensions. The only challenge is actually attaching other bits to the heat pipes. You can solder to them, but you need to use a relatively low temperature solder and you need to use a fair amount of heat because the heat pipe will be sinking that heat rapidly. But you can't use too much heat or the liquid inside will boil and it'll pop.

    "So what is the difference between brazing and soldering? The American Welding Society (AWS) defines brazing as a group of joining processes that produce coalescence of materials by heating them to the brazing temperature and by using a filler metal (solder) having a liquidus above 840°F (450°C) and below the solidus of the base metals.
    Soldering has the same AWS definition as brazing, except that the filler metal used has a liquidus below 840°F (450°C) and below the solidus of the base metals. Soldering can be considered the low-temperature cousin to brazing."

    As cool as this is, you can basically get this same result by getting two things: a portable battery bank (there's some that are even part of a phone case), and a phone fan. The heatsink can help of course, but without a fan it's kind of just...sitting there.
    That said, you'd also need a telescopic controller that connects via bluetooth as your USB port would already be busy with both things.
