What was your procedure and what materials did you use to solder, please ?

Thanks,
Courtney

I soldered some flat tops using that braided ground strap you can get
at rat shack etc. I cleaned the tops with alcohol first and tinned
both parts. They're supposed to be welded but I've done so many
foolish things in my life.
p.s. I've been looking for Samsung ICR18650-24 batteries for about 5
years now so if anyone knows how to get 16 of these weird 3.7V dogs
please let me know. Best of luck.

I have a couple of older VHFs that I'd like to keep as backups and was
wondering
if anyone has replaced the batteries in the packs themselves.

I have disassembled the packs but see that the batteries require
soldering
small
metallic strips in a certain configuration to provide proper voltage,
etc.

My question: HOW to properly solder the new batteries, hopefully easily
:-)

Appreciatively,
