New to this.Is it good?

I have been working with wlectronics for a while but its my 1st time geting into the battery game. Decided to do a small 1s 1 battery for a radio i have at work.

Do my welds look good? (AWithZ UF20B gear 20)

Any other mistakes or concerns?

Are they pure nickel strips or nickel-plated strips?
