Battery Connections

The 4, 19.2 Volt Craftsman batteries are arraigned into a  2 batteries in Series and 2 batteries in Parallel arraignment. This will give me a total battery pack Voltage of 38.4 Volts and sustained current of up to 20 Amps.

There are 4 Shockley Diodes, one across each battery output, to protect each battery's BMS.

The battery connections are made using heavy 16 Ga. speaker wire. I used a grinding bit to remove enough plastic from the stem of the battery socket to get the wire to fit flush with the top of the plastic.
Then soldered the battery connector wires and the Diodes in place.
