    The problem is when I solder the front side. And get it all looking Nice.

    Im using Weller wes51

    And When I solder the front side of cell at temp setting at 750 Degrees Fahrenheit
    And then when I solder the back side at that heat. It then melts the other side of cell and makes my work look like cr@p. The front side melts when I do back side.

    Im using just a thin piece of glass.

    What do you use to solder on? Do I need a metal plate perhaps to keep cell cool when Soldering.

    Any suggestions would help

    Also the cells im soldering is Mono

    I was soldering my other cells which are mono but they only produce 2.8w, they solder fine But I tried today to solder the higher wattage cells I have and its just melting the other side :\
