If you notice once you hook up to test the battery the second time (after the jump) its steadily dropping in voltage...... The battery has a bad cell in it. Ive jumped several different types and size batteries in the last few years, and over time, I've discovered that no matter the type or size, if it has a bad cell, (or cells) it will continue to drain. Thus that battery will continue to drain over time faster than a battery that doesn't have a bad cell. There are ways to replace individual cells but that is not as easy for just anyone to do. Excellent vid though, and hope that info helps.

@scottschmittmusic No you need at least the same voltage (but also not too much higher) less will not charge it. Although if you put two 12V batteries in series, then you'd be in business.

That being said I am working on framing out my basement and Bought this kzbin.infoUgkxHQsUrwNr5GQrnx9V4xDdUr56qxwuiBHt gun. I have done a few walls already, have probably shot a couple hundred nails through this thing and have yet to have a misfire. It works awesome, good depth on every nail if you have your compressor set right. My literal only complaint is that it is a bit heavy and my arm can get a little tired especially whrn I am nailing at odd angles. That being said I am super happy with it and would buy it again. Hoping the old girl allows me to get my whole basement finished out!

There is another kind of power nailer you should be aware of. It has a small internal hammer that will hit very rapidly to drive a nail in less than a second. Likewise air powered. Less than $45 to buy new. Downside is that it doesn’t hold nails inside it, only acts as a power hammer. Upside (besides the lower cost) is that it can drive any size nail, and is easily controllable as to depth. Plus you can maneuver it into just about any space you want, as it is less than palm sized.

I got the lawn mower battery to one signal light charged but that wasnt enough to get the charger to fully charge it. And I dont have a multimeter to test how many volts it is. Where am I suppose to find another 10.8V battery?

@roberthunter6927 Жыл бұрын
It is worth opening the battery pack [ I presume it is out of warranty, because doing this will void it]. The thing to do is to check each cell to see if the voltage on all are more of less the same. One or more cells on a lower voltage means those cells are toast, so this method will not work. If you are good with a soldiering iron you can de-solder the trashed one[s], replace them, and try again. [At your own risk, blah blah blah]. If you start a fire with a lithium battery, they are really hard to put out, even with the proper class of fire extinguisher, so there's that. If a Lithium battery gets too hot you will have a "thermal runaway" which is super bad news. The smoke emitted can be highly toxic. Some cells contain lead, nickel, cadmium, mercury, and electric car batteries, cobalt. If you breathe cobalt for example, you are dead. So if you are anywhere near such a fire, go upwind and away. FAST. Probably why such hacks are not recommended.

I slowly eased the amps up until the CV/CC lights switched over. That was about 3A of power. I left it on for about 2 minutes, then disconnected, checked voltage and it showed about 12V no load. Hooked that up to the charger again and it is now charging :)

I live in Las Vegas and temp nowadays is always 100+. degrees. My tools are in my not-air conditioned work place. One of my batteries just stop working. I put it in refrigerator for few minutes and it worked. So before doing anything I just put them in refrigerator. Now I remember when the battery I left under the sun for a day. I should have tried cooling it before unsuccessfully repairing it. If all cell of battery are good this will work but if any (even only one) is bad this method will not because the bad battery will not charge and the rest are over so the total is correct but will not last. You will notice that the good battery will overheat due to overcharging. You can test and change the bad cells. Note that most cell/battery have protection and if they open it is hard to repair. My experience in testing and repairing each cell. If the protection is closed. 1. I notice that most drill uses 3 + volt individual batteries and I believe each cell is always 1.2 volt. I assume (correct me if I’m wrong). That the 3+v battery used have 2 cells. So even if the battery is getting charged it will go to 3 v but in short goes back to low charge like 1 volt. 2. The method described by the author will also work for individual cell as long as the battery still good. 3. I’ve used several unsafe ways to revive battery. Please don’t do. I think this the better way or you can buy a charger. If the battery reached say 3.+ volt and stayed for hours it good. Be sure to assemble and use the right charger. 4. After trying several times and failed I’ll just buy individual batteries or the complete batteries. In buying (eBay), some sell really good. Found one with warranty. One battery from another seller broke in life’s weeks. 5. I tried this method before and this method is the safest. With rigid battery I believe you have to use jumper from + to one of the t terminals To make it work. I think it’s t2. Note that this method works because if there is something wrong with the battery the charger will not start ( no voltage in + and - posts). But my rigid battery has complicated circuit (to ensure individual cell gets the right voltage / charge). So it needs a jumper to fool the circuit. 6. Good reminder by Mr “kite”- keep batteries charged. Don’t store discharged and completed discharge - that’s why some have protection to prevent too discharge

Just worked for me, dead one has green light on the charger anyway. Had to buy another $70 battery to do it, but now I have 2. It'll be nice not to have to swap from drill to drive.

Unfortunately while the jumped battery appeared to be charging, after the green charger light went out, the battery was still dead as doornail. Certainly worth a try though.@@Kitearmy
