Put me in your will first?? :)
DONT solder to the batteries.
A: The resulting joints would make the pack too long to fit in the holder.
B: The heat is bad for the batteries, significantly reducing their life
C: Li-Ions have a nasty tendency to play "Frag grenade" when abused like this.
D: If they decide not to play frag grenade, then they have another game
called "Incindeary run" that you can play.
Get thee to a batteries plus store, where they have the proper welder.
