Note: The conductivity in the above table is calculated based on a thickness of 0.1 x width of 5mm x 100mm (length). When changed to a thickness of 0.2 x width of 5mm x 100mm or a thickness of 0.1 x width of 10mm x length of 100mm, the resistance value is half of the value in the above table.

different shapes can be customized

Summary: The higher the resistance of the conductive connecting piece, the greater the line loss generated by the connecting piece, and the maximum output capacity of the battery will be reduced. It may even generate heat during the operation of the battery pack, reducing product safety.
