Do at your own risk, batteries are dangerous and should be handled with care. This is for entertainment

I've tried this trick many times and never works for me
@porschadominguez8262
Dewalt will give you a new battery within 2 years if it goes bad. No questions asked!

The only thing more fun than resurrecting dead 18 to 20 volt Li-On batteries with a battery charger connected to a wall outlet, is by removing dents in your truck's sheet metal by getting really cheap inflatable beach or basket balls from a dollar-type store, or from Amazon, and placing them behind the dents you want to straighten, and then wedging the deflated balls in place with suitable pieces of 2' x 4", and then connect a small air compressor, capable of 150 psi, with a long, strong piece of tubing, and then cutting the air pump on, while hiding behind a friend's near-by truck. (Always wear ear and eye protection and a ballistic vest, or an armored suit plus eye & ear protection if the ballistic vest is not available. Safety not assured.)

Try it and get power to the battery but still wont charge

This won’t work most of the time usually 1 cell in the pack goes bad or is leaking
@user-hn3fp6fg8m
GREAT ADVICE. Newbie questions (don't judge): 1) Will this work with Dewalt's DW9099 (18V) batteries?; 2) Does the wire size matter?; 3) And lastly, is @benshell8662's comment legit: "...dewalt batteries have a fusible link inside then that can blow if they get too hot inside, has happended to me several times. You can take the top cover off and solder it back together and fix it, if this doesn't work"
@riotintomaršsadrine
It is temporary solution only. Once battery was dead, you must buy new one or repair it. It will never be the same again.

Unbelievable I just got my 60v battery working THANKS A LOT
@tonyabdon9492
It worked, I literally left it connected for three seconds. I have a feeling as soon as you see that spark you could probably put it on the charger, but it worked.
@Johnbro8
I have done this with my batteries before and it works, but I wouldn’t connect for more than 1-2 seconds otherwise heat builds up in the wire and it could damage the battery. Originally I contacted Dewalt, after I mistakenly, completely drained my battery and it wouldn’t charge, and their response was, buy a new battery.
@scrogathon
I had 11 of my batteries in storage for a few years and let's just say that was an expensive mistake. Only a few were able to take a charge and those don't work too well anymore
@davidz9699
Worked again. Thanks

This 100% works.
@likemilfes
Same here, a 60V on a third party lamp, probably some flow despite device off, or just too long not used….in any case, it now charges again!
@yasoutherncousin
It worked.. I used thin wires.. started to smell it after about 5 seconds. but I left it in for about 10 seconds.. it's now charging.. thank you..Dewalt 20v 4ah
@jlousy1901

Don't know about other brands, but dewalt batteries have a fusible link inside then that can blow if they get too hot inside, has happended to me several times. You can take the top cover off and solder it back together and fix it, if this doesn't work
@KY_REDDYNESS
Wow! Thank you! That worked for me! I think I used to light gauge wire cause they got a lil warm but it worked! YT ftw! 👍🏼
