How I charge 5 Makita batteries at the same time

This is how I charged 5 batteries at the same time with only a single charger. Dont do this. It was raining and I was bored. It was just some goofing around. No batteries, people or property was harmed making this video .Just ENTERTAINMENT.

[@thesaltypaultard1271]

[@samrichards8251]

Dangerous idea most likely will cause a fire. Great design idea though.

[@jimnoeth3040]

While it seems like a good idea, it's actually pretty dangerous. If you'll notice, the charger and battery both have additional contacts that mate when the battery is in the charger. The purpose of these are to monitor the individual cells of the battery and the internal temperature of the battery. Lithium Ion batteries have special charging conditions, unlike lead acid and Nickel Meta Hydryde batteries, and they're pretty complex. Also, the fan in the charger isn't to just cool the charger, it also runs air through the battery to cool it while it is charging.

[@twentysevenlitres]

Yes. The small yellow plug is used for balance charging. The charger will be detecting a faulty cell. It could be benign, or it could start a fire. Lithium battery fires are very difficult to extinguish.

[@oldb-1kenobi]

"Alright, let's plug that in"...famous last words right up there with "hold my beer and watch this".

[@jonasstahl9826]

The cooling fan isnt needed when charging multiple batteries at once. They share the power with 5 batterys each only got 20% of the amperage no fan needed with that little power.

[@scorpiuswireless1]

Does he realise it will take FOUR TIMES LONGER?

[@jasonpavlik4904]

Untwist your panties guys. The failure point to the Makita battery is they have a circuit that counts the time it has been over discharge. When it counts three times it won't charge it. You can buy a new circuit board and solder it in to recover it. The real danger here is that the charger can't monitor the temp while charging, but the batteries will charge slowly in this configuration so it's not that big of a deal.

[@mikaeljonsson4686]

[@jeremynelson8496]

I dig it. If you are worried about safety of doing this to a full charge, usually a battery will not charge on the charger because of a 18650 cell in the battery below normal cell voltage. If you do this for just a minute or two, the problem cells are usually charged enough to insert back into the charger and charge by themselves again. Clever with the electrical plates for buses.

[@tduffin2010]

this is a bad idea. Fires have started and burned down houses when people put batteries of unequal charge in parallel.

[@martindavid6084]

Plus no balancing of the cells in serial, it looks like

[@klauskelner1280]

Natural selection they say.

[@rdrhouse]

be very carefull, muliple cell lithium batteries have precise charging requirements and the chargers are designed to monitor the groups of cells or even singular cells and charge them to a set voltage. These batteries do not handle overcharging at all, and can explode or catch fire quite violently. The reason the charger is not able to charge the other batteries is either the cells are too far out of balance with each other or are at too low a voltage. It is possible to bring battery voltage up enough by carefull charging from a nicad charger setup then completing the charge with the balanced charger. If a cell has died it will probably never charge from the charger.

[@Droningonuk]

The only problem is your bypassing the chips in the 4 batteries so they could overcharge.

[@danielcoig1179]

This is not the only problem. He is paralleling all the batteries at different charge levels which means there will be very high amperage moving between batteries that they are not designed to withstand. And some of the batteries are damaged which means the undamaged cells in that pack can charge at significantly higher voltages than the weak or defective cells. This is interesting to see someone think is a good idea but not recommended at all, not a good idea at all. If you want to charge your Makita battery that will not charge you can try to bump the voltage off a good battery and then try the factory charger or you can try a third party hobby charger and make sure to watch the charge from a safe distance and monitor the temperature... ONE AT A TIME. Best practice would be to break the battery down and find the low cell and make sure it is only out of balance with the others and charge that one cell to same level as others before pack charging. If you don't know what you are doing there can be fire. Expect it, plan for something bad to happen. Have somewhere to dispose of a smoldering or battery fire. Don't throw water on it. Bring it outside and away from anything flammable and don't throw it in the trash because you can burn down the garbage can or garbage truck.

[@plasmar1]

suggestion to make this a bit safer of a dangerous process and potentially fix the issue.... 1) find out how long it takes to charge 1 battery alone, charge the batteries using your method half of that time.... 2) find something that uses some electricity like a small fan or 2 in series, hook that up to the battery and let it sit there running a day or 3...... this should in theory rebalance the batteries a bit 3) try charginging them individually as normal, they may work:) 4) avoid fully discharging lithium ion based batteries; if these have a battery meter I suggest recharging when they hit half to a quarter charge:)

[@JurdzLights]

Bad idea. The battery charger is confused if the cell in battery pack is well balance charge or not. The one mounted will be charged normally but the other pack without sensors of each cell will not charge all the cells balanced. Might damage the cell of the battery pack if charge and discharged continuous

Jeez Louis why did it take Mr Salty Paultard 10 minutes to explain something that could have been explained in 1 minute? All he had do was say "covers for electrical boxes are electrically conductive and just happen to be about the right thickness for sliding into Makita battery terminals. Because they are square, that is, because they each have 4 sides, with only 2 of them can connect 4 batteries in parallel. Plus using the Makita charger itself, you can connect a 5th battery. That's all I would have needed to hear to envision this setup. I would point out that his method for attaching the wires to the terminal on the charger, doesn't seem very skookum. Oh yea, one last thing. How long is it going to take to fully charge 5 batteries this way? Is it going to happen just as fast as charging one battery? Is it going to take 5 times as long as it takes to charge one battery? I'd bet on the latter.

[@nicknick7824]

Nice idea but The 4 wont charge faster than one by one because the output of the charger is still the same and you don’t have a cooling fan blowing true the battery that’s there for a reason ;)

[@sadiporter2966]

Makita sell a 4 battery charger (DC18SF) and a dual battery charger (DC18RD). Also those battery chargers will charge newer LXT batteries much faster than your old charger. Your method does not blow a fan on your 4 batteries to cool them when charging which will reduce their lifespan.

Fan is not for the batteries. Fan is to cool off the internal components of the charger.

The makita 4 port charger has a couple of issues ! A) its a slaw charger so a 3ah battery take 1 hour to charge B) it only charges 2 batteries at a time and then when the first 2 are charged it then charges the second two batteries automatically , so it takes 2 hours to charge four 3ah batteries c) its more expensive than buying two dual chargers a dual charger will charge 2 two batteries at the same time and will charge a 5ah or infact two 5ah batteries in 40-50 minutes so you're better off buying two dual chargers

[@firepower9966]

yep you can charge 5 batteries it take 5 times longer, if not longer due overheating charger and unequal battery voltage putting charger into trickle recovery mode. smart thing to do is charge on battery at a time, then you can use one while second charges and so on.

[@JohnSmithZen]

As far as the charger deciding the batteries were bad -- is it a fire hazard to charge a lithium battery that has been allowed to completely drain?

[@64seweryn]

I hope your batteries don't explode. The chip in the battery prevents you from charging batteries with voltage which has dropped too low, which would be from it reaching the end of its life. Open it up and pack new lithium cells in there.

[@thesaltypaultard1271]

I like that option. I did open them up. It's the monitoring side of the batteries that failed not the battery cells

[@64seweryn]

@@thesaltypaultard1271 that part is sold by multiple vendors. Your voltage looked very strange and I think a few individual cells are bad. You shouldn't have to change them all out, but you'll have to check the voltage of each one, remove, and then resolder the bad ones. Newer batteries have a plastic plug covering the screws on the bottom. Some cells are in parallel, others in series. Keep track of the voltage and Amp-Hours you are dealing with.

I suspect the charger will have a short life trying to charge 5 batteries at once.

[@HECKAKYH-ADEKBATEH]

Well, it would be racially offensive to make such a device :) Ok, I am really joking, no offense meant. But such technique of connecting the batteries is known as parallel connection, it keeps Volts same across while splitting the capacity (Ah) across. I use it widely to charge the classic Ni-MH Batteries through a C-type or D-type Adapter, makes it able to charge 16 or 12 at once instead of 4. However with Li-Ion it can really go bad, as those are much less stable and you will bypass the sensor feedback completely, which includes battery internal temperature. Thus there is risk of fire and destroying not just batteries, but also the charger. I would not touch this method, but it was pretty interesting from technical standpoint and I agree that Makita device design could be improved immensely by that.

[@thesaltypaultard1271]

No problem you bigot lmfao. I have thick skin. Glad you like my ergonomic suggestion. Agree on danger of my technique. If I could influence Makita I would make every charging port "smart" for safety sake and arrange the charger like I did. Have a great day.

[@rimfire2642]

I wouldn't recommend this at all. I see a few comments that this is not a good idea which is great, even if it works in what seemingly is "charging" the battery. A few things mentioned that are concerns are, overall charging levels between different packs. IE, the charger is a "peak" charger and will shut off when detecting the single battery has reached capacity. With multiple batteries, in this fashion, that cannot work correctly which could result in some batteries being exposed to overcharging and some undercharged. This is certainly, other than possibly as a "proof of concept" I would avoid especially with expensive tool batteries and particularly lithium batteries since they can be extremely volatile. Now, I likely think that internally, each cell in a pack is monitored and charged independently. In the RC hobby, this is called balance charging. This helps get the most of each battery charge and also gives the best lifespan of a multicell-pack. I would think it's likely this also is part of the charging process for tool batteries, but I do not know that. I also don' t know, if it is, it might be part of what the circuitry in the battery is for, again I do not know. At any rate, IF BALANCE CHARGING is part of the process and the charger is responsible for monitoring the balance this "proof of concept" also bypasses that circuitry. Basically, unbalanced charging over time will result in the cells voltages varying between each other, again leading to cells that will be overcharged and cells that will be undercharged.

[@dz1809]

One should not attempt this. Putting batteries parallel without balancing them first is really bad idea.

[@thesaltypaultard1271]

Why? The cells in these packs are not individually monitored. Every time a single pack is put on the charger you take the chance of doing it yourself. Take one apart I did.

[@VilleLiski]

What your effectively doing is putting approximately 500A fuse (give or take - the capacity of the cover plate you used) between 5S battery terminals. If there is even a 0.2V difference in pack 1 and 2 that means that the moment you connect them in parallel you'll have pretty much unrestricted flow of current from pack to another where the one with higher voltage charges the one with lower voltage. Calculating the charge current is pointless. I can tell you that it's way too hight for any cell in Makita batteries. No point calculating the discharge current either, even if that would be alarmingly high it's no-brainer compared to the equal amount of charging current that you're putting in the pack with lower voltage - cells have somewhere 1-2C charge and anywhere from 2-8C discharge, so you'd be frying your batteries by charging harder while you're frying your batteries by discharging.

[@VilleLiski]

@@thesaltypaultard1271 I've built from kits and replaced cells in many different battery packs using 18650's in my life. And unfortunately so many of them does not balance individual cell's. Many of them just rely that the cells in series that are not individually available to the battery pack's logic nor the charger are close enough in capacity and current handling characteristics.

First two are fighting just against themselves. But the last battery pack you are attaching in the pack of five has four other batteries against it. So if the last battery you're attaching has the lowest voltage it's charged as fast as the wiring + cells physically allow And that is pretty fast as four batteries in parallel have "unlimimited current" Well not really unlimited, but in this scenario more than even needed to charge one battery. Charging li-ion cell faster that manufacturer have designed it will damage the cell. Every time you see a spark you can tell that something went wrong. So with this trick you're doomed to kill your cells in those batteries way faster than regular mishandling, (charging too hot cells, somehow discharging too much or drawing too much current)
