SKILLS NEEDED
Core Skill: Soldering
This skill defines how difficult the soldering is on a particular product. It might be a couple simple solder joints, or require special reflow tools.
Skill Level: Rookie - The number of pins increases, and you will have to determine polarity of components and some of the
components might be a bit trickier or close together. You might need solder wick or flux.

Core Skill: Electrical Prototyping
If it requires power, you need to know how much, what all the pins do, and how to hook it up. You may need to reference datasheets, schematics, and
know the ins and outs of electronics.
Skill Level: Competent - You will be required to reference a datasheet or schematic to know how to use a component. Your
knowledge of a datasheet will only require basic features like power requirements, pinouts, or communications type. Also, you may
need a power supply that?s greater than 12V or more than 1A worth of current.

Excellent Quality
about 3 years ago by Member #444423 verified purchaser
I had previously purchased 18650 cells from eBay- the nameplate ratings said anything from 6AH to 4.2AH.
The 6AH measured to be 800mAH and the 4.2 AH cells were 1.9AH. These off brand cells are never as good
as their ratings. The SparkFun cells were spot on. Don’t be fooled by sellers rewrapping cells. Very satisfied.

Good Battery/ Tabs are weak though
about 2 years ago by Member #701218 verified purchaser
Quality construction and battery, good discharge curve. Tabs are weakly soldered and come off easily.
