custom 18650 battery cell design and prototype

Job ID: 40092088

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

Project Description

I’m looking for an experienced freelancer to design a single-cell (1S) 18650 battery pack that includes an integrated BMS and a physical on/off switch. This is for a real, functional product — not a school project.

The design must be safe, compact, and production-ready, with proper protection and clean wiring.

Scope of Work

Design a 1S 18650 battery pack

Select or recommend an appropriate BMS (over-charge, over-discharge, short-circuit protection)

Integrate a physical on/off switch (rocker, slide, or toggle — open to recommendations)

Provide a clear wiring diagram

Recommend suitable components (BMS, switch, holder or welded tabs)

Ensure the design allows safe charging through the BMS

Requirements

Proven experience with 18650 battery pack design

Strong understanding of Li-ion battery safety

Experience with BMS wiring and protection circuits

Ability to provide clear documentation and diagrams

Deliverables

Wiring diagram (clear and labeled)

Component list with part numbers

Brief explanation of system operation

Safety notes and best practices

One fully assembled and functional prototype battery pack
