▲ 15 ▼ Drilling and tapping LiFePO4 battery terminal practicality? (programming.dev) submitted 4 months ago by sobchak@programming.dev to c/askelectronics@discuss.tchncs.de 6 comments fedilink hide all child comments I'm wondering how practical it would be to drill and tap terminals to add posts to batteries like this: https://batteryhookup.com/products/2x-sunwoda-lf314-314ah-lfp-prismatic-cells-grade-a-qualified-rohs-certified-ultra-long-life-10-000-cycles The description says that you can only drill 5mm at most. Anybody do something like this before? I do have a shitty Harbor Freight drill press and couple hand tap wrenches.
