DIY Welding with Car Batteries

so i finally am able to weld with car batteries. my previous attempt was nowhere near as good. unfortunatly since i’ve never actually stick welded, i don’t know how this compares to a real welder. i think i may need differant rods. these rods came from a construction site and they use very powerful welders.

  1. I know this was like a year ago. But people if you have a safety concern simply tell the person. But the computer chair jockeys being a$$ O's will only hinder intelligent people who are generally shy and reserved from sharing their knowledge with the rest of us idiots. Thank you man for your video and saving me the time experimenting. Keep up the good work you're still helping people a year later.

  2. Why are you using electrode negative? The only rods that work with electrode negative are the ones that end in the number 2… The rest are electrode positive.

  3. Do you think if I use my golf cart batteries to weld with it would hurt them much, I wold disconnect the cart from the batteries first, it is a 6 battery x 8V. (48V.+) system but I don't have to use all the batteries if I needed a lower voltage, they are Deep Cycle Lead Acid Battery?

  4. 2 batteries at 24 volts or so, and just reverse leads on the electrode and work price so the electrode is coming off the negative batter post for DC negative then you’d get a smoother arc instead of the popping mess… ☺️. Cheers!
