Ebike powered by my extra drill battery.

Today's lithium drill batteries contain a lot of power! Can they be put to use on items other than drills? YES! kind of.

I personally recommend buying the Bafang bbshd and buy power tool adaptors. You can use 20/60v max makita 18v batteries or m18 batteries. My 3,600w bbshd (luna ludicrous v1 controller) and 3x M18 12.0ah batteries in series (peaks at 63v) and a bridge rectifier that can handle 100a (1.2v drop to make the system work) and pow! I have a 4+ hp ebike with power tool batteries.

[@AlQaeda198]

You should make a video about it

[@perfect10northgate51]

Good luck with it are intended to give you an 9am appointment for a couple

[@barry_g8443]

Excellent investigation

[@meetoo4368]

Just hook it straight up like normall to existing ebike controller just stay under 62v and you can use any 18v in series or 60v power tool battery combo,no issues

[@Cesar-cm4if]

Agreed! Something else to keep in mind while riding ebikes are helmets, most people wear cpsc helmets, when they should be wearing nta helmets like xnito or bern hudson

[@innovativeintelligence4172]

Cool Bike you should make the plywood box out of plexi glass

[@terryw7921]

Do you need a inline fuse too do this ,or is it ok,

[@ahah1785]

2020 and we still have no cheap hi quality lithium batteries... this is pretty much the only choice to avoid those horrid chinese lithium packs... or way overpriced prebuilt ones just because it the new hip thing... makes me sick.

[@williamwindex3890]

Watching this cause I just used a craftsman 60volt and parts of the weed eater to make it snap in.. 48-60v controller . Simplest thumb throttle . I'll up load the video tomorrow after the first test

[@levapalestine]

video?

[@rwm1980]

Damn dude that's an expensive drill

[@DarioFoley-qu8ns]

Expensive but does the job well

[@rickybailey7123]

That was cool saved me alot of burning my tools up thanks for the video dud life saver!!! 2 👍 up !!

Wal-Marts hart tool has a 40v line of batteries that would be perfect for that

I have dewalt batteries, how do I safely connect them in series for 36 v ,what method of connection that is secure?

[@rjbikes1237]

how do youse connect all those led acid batteries toegether too power it

[@KiwiMaker]

Add them in series to get 48v

[@rjbikes1237]

@@KiwiMaker thank you what charger did you use and did you use a fuse kit for your controller

[@sunoncream1118]

ive done it.. on ma very old (+-10yr) 36volt 16amp peak ebike.. 3d printed adaptor to hold battery as 3p2s , and so the battery is already some 2p5s , that so make a total of 6p10s of 2200mah li ion.. for 180 eur total, (adavantage vs china is cell are 3yr under guarantee:)

[@YourOwnWay]

Genius ideas! Do you have a video on how to make the e-bike?

[@sharadrokade9841]

Good

[@md.nazirmahamud7337]

How much price $??

[@bobcatt2294]

I would start with using 24 v dc batteries and then hook them up in series. Stay away from 18 v - go with anything that are increments of 12 v like 24 and 48 and on. Thumbs up.

[@KiwiMaker]

Yes good idea, I was just hoping I could use some batteries that I already had 😃

[@patrickday4206]

Just ran it to low just need to open it up and charge cells dewalt has the low voltage shut off in the tool

[@KiwiMaker]

Ohhh that makes sense! im just used to the bms charge controller being on the battery itself.

[@infonator1]

Isn't 60 volts a little too much for 48 volt battery. I thought that 54 volts was about as much for 48 volt battery???

[@KiwiMaker]

The 54v and 60v are the same battery, just labeled differently depending on the country.

[@Chronicize03]

Can I use a portable lithium power bank directly to the motor?

[@sunoncream1118]

lol usb ebike? XD

Be careful not to run the batteries to low

Why not?

350w probably ideal for ebike you got a motorcycle hubmotor

[@KiwiMaker]

Haha yeah its pretty powerful :)

[@SimonStuff2000]

I don't understand,why I need a controller?

[@williamwindex3890]

The hub motor has a chip inside.. it needs 5volt source and also has its own three smaller hall wires that get signal from it

[@gerardr4869]

Did you try powering your ebike with the 54v battery again? ... I have 3 batteries 18v 9Ah with hopes to power up a similar motor like yours.

[@christiangenest576]

Show it when your bike will be done

@@meetoo4368 what’s the Ah rating of your batteries?

[@perfect10northgate51]

Kan bel the following week and have been in the morning and evening

[@rodr5243]

Check your pins in the battery. When. You insert the shade bits it widens the contacts in the battery & the tool pi s are very thin. Just bend the battery pins back to original space & it will work. I done this to jump my truck & same results after using spade terminals- or you would seen smoke & smelled melted solder from the battery to actually damage it. Just my thoughts.

[@KiwiMaker]

Oh good tip! That would make sense
