Are the rectangular red bits just locating pins for the pcb?

They’re 6x12mm protrusion tabs. 4x per p-group to lock it in + a larger one in the center that had an embedded nut. That + silicone and these cells are going nowhere.

I’m so tempted to try to make a battery but I feel as if it’ll go kaboom. Kinda crazy, I had absolutely no clue you had a store and just recently knew you made a forum. Kinda late to this lol

Demand has not really been there vs 12S4P, and each design variant on these bigger PCBs has a pretty large upfront cost in manufacturing a decent sized run due to current shipping costs.

Yea I figured as much. I just need some fat nickel. Gonna get a maletrics soon too!

I’m wondering what all I would need for my battery though. If I should get some of dem wide ones and modify them to work for my battery or if just a regular roll would work better.

@Andrew is there any chance you are developing a panel mount xt90s? I think this would sell well. Always been curious as to why these don’t exist yet.

I think I’ve seen a few such things that exist as little mounting brackets machined from aluminum- but the biggest factor here is cost. To do it properly you’d probably just want to have a complete injection mold made, and I’m pretty sure they use a cast-in-place for the internal bullets/resistor in the XT-90S (more cost).
Possible that we could do a panel mount for them like @SeanHacker did for the MR60 connectors though.

Gotcha, yeah I’ve ordered a few of the aluminum mounts, but they coming from China, and even some other mounts for an xt90. The whole mold cost makes sence…but xt60 has a panel mount, the kind you are selling in the DRI store, a bit surprised this hasn’t been done for an xt90.

I think I have around 3 variants of single xt-90 mount panels already done. I could just mirror and add a bolt hole and done. Fusion machine screen is taken for just a bit though.
You wanting dual? Do people even use dual? Not sure why I’m even thinking about this. Ha
