Lefeng admits he hasn’t figured the U3 out: the Jiashikai negative is steel, so he tests on a stainless-steel knife — 0.1 nickel strip only needs gear 1.5–1.8 (anything around 1.x is fine), 0.15 nickel strip at gear 2.5 blackens and throws sparks, not good, still not dialed in; cells are on the way and he’ll keep experimenting; comments: ordered from the storefront and it won’t power on, microwave-transformer welder also failed, once you get into it you’ll want a capacitor unit
The comments say I can’t even figure out the AWithZ spot welder; honestly, I haven’t, I’ve tried lots of settings. Because the Jiashikai negative is steel, I test on a stainless-steel knife: for 0.1 nickel strip on this cell the gear only needs to be 1-point-something, 1.5 is enough, and there won’t be a problem; how many gears 0.15 nickel strip needs I don’t know, bumped to 2.5 to try: too high a gear blackens it, it’s already throwing sparks, the result isn’t great, probably still not dialed in; the cells are bought and on the way, I’ll keep experimenting with this AWithZ spot welder. Title: 9.9 gears, 0.1 only needs gear 1.5–1.8; “I haven’t figured it out and you’re still buying it after me, unbelievable”. 207 comments: ordered from your storefront, arrived today and won’t power on (check whether it has charge; if it doesn’t work, return it right away); my microwave-transformer welder failed too (you’re going down the road I went down; the money for a hand-build buys one of these); a Zhongwei Zhixing 30s can’t weld 0.1 nickel-plated stacked on 0.1 copper to a Jiashikai negative (0.1 copper needs a ¥400–500 class machine); fine for beginners to play with but later you’ll definitely want a capacitor unit (yep); get a UF20B; how about the Xiaoqiang.

Ordered from your showcase, arrived today, why won't it power on?

Check if it has charge, test right away whether it works, if it doesn't return it right away

I tried a microwave-transformer spot welder, failed too

You're about to go down the same detour I took, the money for a hand-build is enough to buy one

Bought a Zhongwei Zhixing 30s, tested it, can't weld 0.1 nickel-plated stacked on 0.1 copper to a Jiashikai negative

0.1 copper needs a 400–500 one

Brand-new Jiashikai 4830 Li-ion pack with a Jikong BMS, only rode a dozen km and it's flat, what's the problem

If it went a dozen km right after assembly that's fine; if you rode it flat, recharged fully and only got a dozen km, there may be a problem

Get a UF20B, you do plenty of welding

Fine for beginners to play with, once you do more of it you'll definitely need a capacitor one
