4.1. Device Interfaces

This video demonstrates the LCD screen display, power-on sequence, and various adjustable settings including states switch, preheat pulse, 1-30 gears, and advanced menu options. It also highlights the Type-C interface, soldering pen interface, output interface, and the On/Off button with select functionality.

4.2. LCD Display and Controls

The 1.8-inch HD colorful screen provides an accurate display of various operational values, including current, preheat settings, gear selection, and battery information. This allows for easy monitoring and adjustment of welding parameters.

5. Setup

5.1. Initial Charging

Before first use, fully charge the spot welder. Connect the provided Type-C USB cable to the device and a 5V/2A power adapter. A full charge typically takes approximately 3 hours.

It is recommended to recharge the battery when its charge level drops to 70% to maintain optimal performance and battery longevity.

5.2. Connecting Welding Pens

1. Ensure the spot welder is powered off.
2. Insert the two welding pens into the designated soldering pen interfaces on the device. Ensure they are securely connected.

The gold-plated terminals ensure ultra-low resistance and stable current flow for effective welding.

5.3. Powering On

Press and hold the power button for 3 seconds to turn on the device. The LCD screen will illuminate, displaying the main interface.

6. Operating Instructions

6.1. Adjusting Welding Gears

The Seesii SE008 features 30 adjustable gears for output power. Adjust the gear setting based on the thickness of the nickel sheet and the desired weld strength. Higher gears provide more power for thicker materials.

Refer to the display for current gear settings and pulse durations (e.g., 1ms, 20ms, 30ms) to fine-tune your welding process.

6.2. Welding Nickel Sheets

The device is capable of welding nickel sheets from 0.1mm to 0.25mm thickness. Proper gear selection is crucial for strong welds.

For 0.1mm nickel sheets, a lower gear setting (e.g., Gear 05ms) may be sufficient. For 0.12mm nickel sheets, a medium gear setting (e.g., Gear 20ms) is often appropriate. For 0.15mm nickel sheets, a higher gear setting (e.g., Gear 28ms) is typically required. For 0.2mm nickel sheets, use 24-28 gears with 3-5s contact time. For 0.25mm nickel sheets, use 28-30 gears with 3-5s contact time. Always perform test welds on scrap material to find the optimal settings for your specific application.

This video illustrates the process of welding nickel sheets of varying thicknesses (0.2mm and 0.25mm) onto cylindrical batteries, demonstrating the recommended gear settings and contact times for each thickness.

6.3. Welding Process

1. Prepare the battery terminals and nickel strip by ensuring they are clean and free of oxidation. Use the included metal file if necessary.
2. Place the nickel strip firmly onto the battery terminal where the weld is desired.
3. Position both welding pen tips onto the nickel strip, ensuring good contact and even pressure. The tips should be close together but not touching.
4. The device will automatically detect contact and initiate the weld based on the selected gear settings. A spark will occur, indicating a successful weld.
5. Lift the welding pens and inspect the weld. Adjust gear settings as needed for stronger or weaker welds.

The Seesii SE008 is compatible with various cylindrical battery types, including 18650, 26650, and 32650, for both Ni/MH and Ni/Cd chemistries.

6.4. Power Bank Function

The Seesii SE008 can also function as a power bank. Connect your mobile device or other USB-powered gadgets to the USB output port (USB 5V 2.1A/2.4A) on the spot welder to charge them.

7. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Regularly clean the welding pen tips with the included metal file or fine-grit sandpaper to remove oxidation and ensure good electrical contact. Wipe the main unit with a dry, soft cloth.
• Storage: Store the spot welder in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Ensure the battery is partially charged (around 50-70%) before long-term storage.
• Battery Care: Avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. Recharge promptly when the battery level is low.
• Temperature Control: The intelligent temperature control system will protect the device from overheating. Allow the unit to cool down if it automatically shuts off due to high temperature.
