​@@pfoxhound You're right. I need to find out what this kind of collaboration looks like on KZbin. At the moment all the materials (silicone, resin, PCB circuits, etc ...) used in the movies I bought with my money, so if I put any links I do it voluntarily.

Rather than using cables , you could also use a XT90 female connector sunk in the resin , that way you can just terminate what ever you want to power with a male one .

[@makeandfixathome]

Good idea, Peter!! It all depends on what the adapter is to be used for. Tomorrow new video, so I will connect to those cables too... ;) Regards and thank You, I will use those connectors on a different project. Manaloneathome

[@user-sf9mh1ms4q]

Very nice. Lots of work though. I did mine with a "moldable plastic Thermoplastic beads", using press and seal or saran wrap to cover the battery. Then, just like molding a putty, you press it to all the necessry areas like the slide and lock. When it is almost cured but still workable (slightly white, I slide it off the battery (a few times) and use scripto knife on the terminal holes to finish the slot all the way through. I dont even need to make holes on the battery lock (It locks in place). Fits like a globe. You can use a thicker material like aluminum foil to wrap the battery If you like it a little bit loose. Without the terminals, I would say look me less than 3 minutes.

[@BigDIrocZ]

I have a need for someone to do a small 3D printing project for me because I do not have a printer. When I stumbled across your video with this content it will solve my problem. It is for the same project you did. I built a portable bench top power supply. However the portable part right now isn’t so portable. I have it temporarily set up with an old laptop power supply. This requires a 110v outlet nearby to power it. That won’t be an issue IF there is an outlet nearby. But you never know when or where you will need this tool. So I want to make it using my old style Snap on 18v battery. I had a couple go bad on me so I upgraded to lithium ion batteries. These are afternoon batteries to replace my old bad ones so they are brand new. I don’t want to purchase some new battery type just to have a battery to power my power supply. I want to use what I already have. And they are new to boot. I figured I was all set… Except I can’t find ANYONE that makes the 3D printed part so I can connect my old style Snap on battery to it. There are all sorts of adapters out there even for my old style snap on battery. However I need printed is the tool side so the battery can connect to it. No one makes that so I believe this will solve that. Where did you get your supplies from? Like a Hobby Lobby type place? Daryl

[@makeandfixathome]

Hi Daryl, I am very glad that this idea helps you to solve your problem. 110V You must be from the USA. I am from Great Britain :) I ordered the resin and silicone online. Never heard of Hobby Lobby but I think it is a similar provider. Regards and thank you for your comment. Regards manaloneahome

[@duncancremin1708]

Given the cost of 3D printers, this is going to appeal more to the average guy. What did you use to make the mould? It looks like silicone, or perhaps polyurethane, rubber, but how did you get such a faithful replica of the battery, without the mould material contaminating the battery itself, or even making the mould impossible to remove from the battery. You could hardly soak the battery in release wax, like a conventional plug mould, so I’d love to see how you achieved that.

[@makeandfixathome]

Pls watch other videos 😊 all in description 😃 Regards

[@duncancremin1708]

Yep. Found them, thanks. Mental block wouldn’t allow me to consider the power tool as a plug mould. I was imagining an extra step, taking a mould off the battery, first. This is primarily of interest to me, because I have a plethora of good quality professional tools, from both De Walt and Makita, for which batteries are either no longer available, or are prohibitively expensive. I’ve bought PARKSIDE, or PowerCraft replacement tools which have a much superior battery platform and batteries are cheap (relatively!), but the tools are a bit diy. If I can adapt my pro tools to the cheap modern batteries, I’ll be on the pigs back.

[@milanvelickovic6666]

You may use pigment powder into resin and get colored adapter...

[@makeandfixathome]

Correct :) I make clear only for that video!

[@lezbriddon]

Beware that parkside 20v xteam DO NOT have a low voltage cutoff and if you drain the battery's too low then they will not recharge on the parkside charger as the battery protection circuit will no longer send the start charge command over the data pin.

[@lezbriddon]

@daz374 yup they just become cell donors, a way must exist to reset these things but I can't even find a data sheet for the chip in mine

[@user-zf5rz2iy7o]

This battery has no any safety features itself. Safe charge or discharge is provided by communication between battery and tool or battery and charger of X20V system. This communication tells the tool or charger to stop when any of the cell's voltage goes out of the allowed range. Using them as powerbank or with a non-X20V charger is dangerous! This can damage the battery or set it on fire! Of course, the battery could be disassembled, and necessary BMS (Battery Management System) PCB installed inside. This PCB has cell voltage monitoring circuit and power switch to cut-off charger or load for safety.
