Working with Lipo's is a PIA. I made several packs and repaired a few. Depending on your cells you may need a special soilder. Not all cells require it, depends on the tabs.

Just the same it is not worth it. One mistake and you got a fire, or a wire will become a fuse if you are lucky.

Everytime I work with Lipo's I tell myself it's not worth it and I am just going to buy a pack next time or chuck the pack instead of repairing it.

I build A123 packs and highly recommend the DIY method for those cells.
