Today I soldered some button blobs onto my brand new 30Q’s. I used a rosin/resin core electrical solder. The batteries are now in the charger and everything is going good.
My new Q8 is in the mail. According to shipment tracking, I expect to receive it in couple days. If I receive it in 2 days, as expected, it’ll have taken a total 25 days from China (Banggood) since date of purchase.
Those are better done than mine!
I don’t see a picture, it’s probably an issue on my end.
But good job though.
Nor in mine.
But I’m in Australia. probably got lost on the way hey….
I still can’t see your image.
Link says I have to sign in some Google stuff. Not doing that. Still can’t see it then.
No biggie.
I have some mini magnets for 18650’s that I may use for the flat tops.
I see the photos fine.
I do not see any photo
This is what I see

I don't see a photo either...
You might want to try Imgur.
Seems like you’ll have to be signed into a Google account to view photos.
Okay, lesson learned. I don’t think I’ll be using Google cloud to host images for this forum the future. I’ll have to discover a better process.
Nope.
I'm signed into my Google account.
I had the same problem about a month ago. Thought I would use google photos since it was free and easy to use. Well nobody could see my pics. I could see them just fine, didn’t realize they wasn’t showing up for everyone else. So I had to set the share permissions on each photo. Then there was still problems especially if someone quoted my pic post (no photo).
.
It took me about a hour to transfer all my photos to imgur and I couldn’t be happier now. Simple to use and offers several different formats to share photos. By the way, I cant see your photos either.
I can see them now. :+1:
Thank you to everybody for your feedback. Imgur is what I’m using now.
You should remove the brown stuff on the base off your blobs.
A cloth, brush and denatured alcohol (spiritus) or isopropanol should work.
It is old flux.
I have done this to a few of mine, but i filed the blobs down so they had a flat top so the contact being made wasn’t just the tip of a rounded blob
At least the second one from the left looks suspicious, as if the blob is mostly held in place by the flux.
Photos from the op just in case these might help….
The second one looks like a repelled drop of water that’s not so good.
I made these some time ago.
