4️⃣ Pre-Tinning the Wires
To make soldering easier, apply a small amount of solder to the exposed wire ends.
For better adhesion, apply soldering flux before melting the solder.

⚠️ Caution:

Do not leave the soldering iron on the wires for too long, or the insulation may melt.
Use a high-temperature (350–400°C) soldering iron to complete the task quickly.

5️⃣ Preparing the Module Terminals
Pre-tin the B+ / B- terminals where the battery will be connected.
Applying a small amount of flux or soldering paste beforehand ensures better solder adhesion.

💡 Tip:

Since you need to hold both the soldering iron and the solder, using a PCB holder makes the process much easier.
Avoid applying too much solder.

7️⃣ Soldering the Wires (Most Difficult Step)
The case is heat-sensitive, so be careful while soldering.
Solder the red wire (+) and black wire (-) to the respective terminals without reversing polarity.

⚠️ Tip:

It is recommended to solder the black wire (-) (GND) first.
