Step 7Begin wiring the cells together
All the cells will be wired in series, that is, the front of each cell will be connected to the back of the next cell in series.
Cut the ribbon into ten approximately 1 1/2" long pieces. Solder eight of them to the fronts of all eight cells, allowing about half of the piece to stick out beyond each cell. (The extra will be soldered to the back of the next cell in the series.) I found it easiest to apply solder to half of each ribbon first, allow them to cool, then put the soldered part of the ribbon onto the top of the cell, and solder it on without adding more solder.
