@@alainflores4075 No this is not the same issue I had. My 9.0 would not charge 2 out of the 4 cells (so even after the Milwaukee charger would be done charing and show green lights, I only had 1/2 a full battery charge). Yes, I was able to charge the 2 cells that won't charge on the Milwaukee charger with the individual charger. I spoke too soon as this did not fully solve my issue though. The problem is that now my Milwaukee charger will only charge 3 of the 4 cells (so 1 cell is sitll not charging on the Milwaukee charger). Not sure if its the battery pack itself or if it is the specific cell that is bad or what. Hope this helps. If I get that one non-charging cell issue figured out I will update.

You should try to leave the small balancer inside the battery otherwise the weak cells will continue to die first and power off earlier then necessary, either that or ditch the weak cells unless you want a tool with short battery life. I would have liked to see your individual battery cell voltages during the discharge around 15.5V. Oh, you did do that, well not too bad on this pack but 2nd from the end was getting a bit lazy.

Hello, Thank you for this information. I have an M18 HD9.0 battery that only runs for 4 minutes on my 2724-20 blower. The battery is only a couple years old and hasn't lasted long almost from the beginning. I blame the blower because this blower also killed one of my 5.0 batteries. I just charged and then ran this battery. After a full charge I get a green light and all 4 LEDs. The blower stopped at 4.5 minutes. My readings after it stopped were: 18.39 total. 3.75. 3.84. 2.97. 3.93. 3.90. The first LED blinked. Questions: 1. Do you think balancing these will help? 2. Will using only the active balancer do a good enough job? I don't have the current limiting charger you used in the video. 3. The link is to buy the board from China. Delivery is 1 month away.

They're different types. The first one (Active Balancer) is capable of dealing with larger balancing currents, so when the cell voltages a far apart, this gets them into the ballpark of being near each other fairly fast but not with great accuracy; which is where the second one comes in. The second type (Load Balancer) will balance the cells with greater accuracy, but it will take much longer to do this. Hence why he uses the one then two approach. Technically you could just use the second one, but it will take much longer to achieve cell balance than using the one then two approach.

Thanks. Same issue and two of the parallel cells were near half volts. I externally charged those two and had same flashing light issue. Was about to scrap battery as a conversion with new BMS but found your methods in this video. I think I can find the balancers in your repair process. Do you have links on them with a nice description of the basic functionality? Also… do you have a theory on why the cells got out of balance? My guess fine dust caused partial failure of the BMS and the cells drifted on charge level. Thorough cleaning of the BMS restored functionality. Do you thinks the on board BMS would have corrected the balancing over a few charge / discharge cycles or is your external method simply faster and better?

This is just my opinion, but the M18 BMS does balancing and it does work most of the time. I recently checked a bunch of my M18 batteries (1.5, 2.0, 5.0, 6.0 HO, total of 8) and their cells were within 0.01 V, which is really good considering the packs are several years old (2-3 years old) and were heavily used for a long time (I was a carpenter in Alberta, Canada, using the tools in temperatures ranging from -30 to +30). However if they do happen to get out of balance too much (whatever the underlying reason), the BMS somehow does not count with this scenario and it only gets worse from thereon. I did have a 9.0 HD battery that was acting funky and it turned out it was a similar scenario - cell #1 charged to about 60 %, cell #2 about 75 %, and the rest 100%. I would not even notice it from using the battery itself, until one day I did realize it took only an hour to fully charge the 9 Ah battery, which realistically on the OEM charger (3 A) should take roughly 3 hours. Only then I did took it apart, manually charged the first two cells and it seems to work normally now. Also worth noting is that the 9 Ah batteries are notoriously known for their unreliability (their rating on Home Depot is terrible), I wonder if it's always the case of them simply going out of balance.

@@EVCustoms Thank you sir for your reply. I looked at the pics from the website link and couldnt find a pic that matched what you used so i just wanted to be sure to get the same thing. Im going to be greedy while i have your ear and also ask about the power supply you also used. Not trying to suck up here but must say all the videos out there me and my comrades are super impressed by you. Thanks again for all your help

All you do is jump start battery with fully charge battery. Two wires, pos. to pos. and neg. to neg. to out side leads, just few minutes. Problem solved!
