Very fast shipment and good quality. Many friends here have complained about the manual which is in Chinese. So I tried to translate the manual using online translation. Please check the photos. If it is not very clear, just take a screenshot and then zoom in to see better. Sorry for the low quality, but that's the best possible. Hope it is helpful
tested quickly on an AA battery, it worked. in reality the device send the current every 1.5 seconds with a beep, so it does not detect if you have contact or not (i have the mini usb version). but for the price it's cool. only 2 drawbacks are on the solder pins: it seems they are not removable and they are not isolated on a long distance, the distance where you hold it with your fingers... i'm not sure what happens if your fingers are wet... i isolate them with some thermalshrink tubes for safety.
Excellent product for this price! Guess I'll order another one soon. I saw some of you have issues with welding quality. I will teach you two tricks to have perfect welds. 1. The first trick is to grind the weld pins, check the images. 2. The second trick is, DON'T APPLY FORCE when welding. You just have to be sure the nickel touches the battery, put one pin on the nickel strip and with the second pin just touch the strip and wait for the weld. Note: if you don't use the device for 5 days, it will automatically discharge the battery.
A pulse is the solder is done! Show. I bought a 10m roll. The instructions are completely Chinese but for me it was easy to understand the operation. Hold the button and it goes into ON. Green LEDs mark the charge, of the internal battery. Every 2-3 sec you hear a beep, at that time by current pulse then eye not to short circuit. While it beeps the LEDs turn red and only those of the chosen power level are turned on. After it is in On press 2 times the button to switch to the power choice. Each pressure increases from 1 to 4 The red LEDs that indicate the chosen power. Press the button 2 more times to return to pulse working mode. Press and hold the button to turn off. Nice purchase!
Arrived quickly in UK from EU via DHL. As suggested it was down to 50% charge to help with longevity of battery included. Very easy to use even with Chinese instructions as on the rear of the device it has the options in simple instruction. Long press on, green lights show charge. Quick short press twice shows red for power settings. I used from 2 to 4 in my testing. Choose your power setting and quick press twice to set it. 1.5 second and contact settings both work on micro usb device and to use this. You need to turn on and short press for each setting and it will show green then 1.5 sec red and so on or just green which means it is in contact mode. As for welding I think it depends on which Nickel strip you use. Even on power 4 setting I could rip strip off with 6 welds easy. But using some more expensive strip I had to use pliers. You get what you pay for with Nickel or plated strip. I tried 0.2mm pure Nickel and it would not hold well at all even on power 4 setting but we already know that as it is only for hobby use and claims only 0.1-0.12mm. You may get away with 0.15mm if pure Nickel. Stay safe friends. Sincere regards, Scott. ✌️🙏✌️
Arrived from within EU in 3+ weeks. Made some test welds and this device has a big punch already on level 2 of power. The leads are little short but managable; they are insulated with clear silicone tubing on the copper part! Arrived with manual in chinese only. I used the instructions in item description above and they are on spot. Arrived with 4m 0.1x8mm nickel strip.
It works surprisingly good! Only con is the manual, it's in Chinese, but with a little common sense you'll work it out. Even shipping to the Netherlands was fast.
The item arrived with completely discharged batteries, this is not good for the life of the batteries themselves, the product has conducting current bars in brass, not copper, the description is not true, however after charging the batteries it seems to work properly in the next few weeks I will do some tests on the current delivered
Great, this point welder suits me very well for the use I make of it. It perfectly welds the nickel strips to the batteries. It is a very good value for money in view of other more expensive machines, especially for the use I will make of it. Very fast shipping thanks to the fdp banggood express.
On Saturday, the GLS came in. She came dead. I had to reload. It works perfectly. I ran a Cr2032 battery right away. You can download the manual, but I watched the video. I used the points and came out to about 1000,-Kč.
