|  Soldering Braid I am assembling some AA packs, and have seen some of you using soldering braid. Where did you get it? LHS has no clue, any help? |

I've used braid on some hump pakcs I hacked into a 6 cell for my 18th scale buggy... Get it at The Source/Radio Shack depending where ya live.. It's AKA solder removal brad, solder sucker braid and de-soldering braid... Works like a charm.... But be fast with the solder... It will chase up fairly fast and make it rather rigid...

I got mine at Radio Shack - it comes in a little plastic spool.

Brass works good for small packs as well if you cannot find the small battery connectors or braid. I used that when I made a 2300mah RX pack from Racer's Edge AA's.

If you are having trouble finding some, I have plenty of both small battery bars and desoldering braid. Both work great for small packs, battery bars are better suited for 2/3A size cells because of the higher current, AA cells are fine with desoldering braid.
