I stand corrected. I ASSUMED that the (-) was connected to the (+) and vice verse on the other end. DUHHH I should have realized they were in parallel. I still sand by what I say that you should follow the way your battery is made up for your laptop.Good call SDwilliams777, thanks.

Actually, check out the diagram @ 1:00.

Solder batts together like that to increase capacity. Won't hurt the batts.He has 6 cells there at 3.7v/1660mAh.If you pause @ 1:08-1:09 you can see, there are three pairs soldered in parallel and each of these is in series with the next pair.That produces 11.1v/3320mAh.If you want to learn more about this, check out an RC website.

omg is this real cause if it is i'm gonna do this

And when I say "to of the cells soldered together" what I mean is "TWO of the cells soldered together" =)

I don't know if this is fake or not but I do know that at time marker 1:04 to 1:06 this guy has to of the cells soldered together on both ends. If you were to do this, essentially connecting two batteries together with no load on them you would be effectively shorting out the batteries which WILL cause substantial heat to build up quite quickly and possible cause the cells to explode, bubble, or melt. I would still try it however, I would copy how the dead battery is set up exactly.

NICE. You can also pull em out to condition on a Li-ion compatible RC charger...Basically, make sure each cell is charged to the same voltage/capacity. I do this with my RC's and it makes the batt's last way longer.
