That would be great!

Did an okay fix for now.
Just has slightly shorter wiring (and some isolation tape)...



One thing I don't understand is why the LRP solder needs about a million degrees to melt.
Couldn't really get it done! Added some of my own (not too much for thickness) and finally got that finished.
One thing you don't want to do is keep the soldering iron on the pack for an extended period of time (so I avoided that).

Check out the chart on ebay listing 140881294705, "CS" column, 4th row (2 cells side by side) - this suggests 83mm wide (lay flat width) is ideal ... the seller didn't have that so I bought 108mm, which was still fine ... I see the seller is now out of that so I appreciate that this post is of limited use ... this PVC heatshrink is better than I've used before though, it's thinner wall & is thinner, harder & smoother in use, so fits car apertures better

83 is indeed for sideby side, stickpack is 67 though

Mine are 83mm and nice adjusted on my sticks after heated

Great table in that eBay ad.
As long as the tube is tight after heating, I guess any size goes.
Only consideration would be to take it a bit slower with the bigger ones, as to not overheat the cells...

Thanks, guys!

You have the time for overheat the cells. Just the time to reduce the shrink. 350°C is faster than a hair dryer.

very good surprise! an electric screw driver for 19,90€ from LIDL. better than a bosch wich costs 70€.
All the lidl Tools are a very good quality.
And my unseparable facom radio box.

They have some great stuff - I am often tempted by it as well.

You can buy closed eyes. screw drivers and "pinces" are very efficients
