Ninja Blast charging issue, anyone swapped the 18650 pack?

lazy implementation. A cable with a type c plug to type c plug wouldn’t work but an a to c cable worked with it.

figured. Its cheap.

spot welder is overkill for this. Pre-tabbed 18650 cells can be had on aliexpress for around 8 bucks shipped so just solder the tabs on the cells rather than the can.

pre-tabbed cells are fine but the tabs that come pre-welded to the cells are usually thin garbage steel that is just nickel plated. For blending application proper pure nickel strip is preferred.

its a blender not a power tool. Its not that much current.

opened mine up last month. Confirmed bms is on the same board as the usb port and the cells are held in a plastic cradle with double sided tape. Comes apart with a spudger going around the seam. Four plastic clips to pop, no screws on this model.
