Very high currents may flow between the packs and weld the connectors, melt the wires, and overheat the batteries – or at the very least trip the safety fuses and render the power pack useless. If you plug in two batteries that are at different states of charge in parallel, you will break things. Happily for those who are apprehensive on the battery front there’s a solutionĭon’t do the Y harness. >mistakes with battery protection and management can be costly.
RYOBI 120V ADAPTER GENERATOR
Part of the waffling is that with a set of 6AH batteries, it runs a shade under a thousand US pesos, which is a bit more than their own gasoline powered generator of equivlent size… I’m still waffling on their ‘no gasoline’ ‘generator’ which is an 1800 watt inverter and battery management for four of the 40 volt batteries the unit also has a sequential charger built in to top up the batteries when grid power is available.
RYOBI 120V ADAPTER BLUETOOTH
(seriously- a hot glue gun without an 18″ cord and no easy way to set it down? YES PLEASE.) They also have a few kind of silly things, like a floating bluetooth speaker with LEDs for a pool (which works pretty well), and a fan with a mister system built into it that’s designed to be parked on top of a 5 gallon bucket (or hooked up to a garden hose). I also like that there are a bunch of ‘niche’ tools that no one else seems to have, like a glue gun that you should get during the promotion, because it’s That Good. The other nice thing about the ONE+ system is that with a few exceptions, ALL batteries with with ALL tools the exceptions are several of the high-draw tools that like the One+HP battery varients I have a palm router and circular saw and those run best with those. For last 2 months left it in parallel cell by cell with 5 new cells fully charged, we will see :-o) The characteristics of all 5 cells in that pack identical high Z, bizarre as all other packs I’ve checked had variations, someone strange one pack same failure mode in all cells – maybe it’s a take – might cut one open. In one case of several dozen all the cells failed high resistance ie meg ohms, wonder if these cells have a built in eutectic metal fuse, they don’t seem any different to others, maybe experiment fell into part production. It’s interesting as there seem odd failure modes – in a couple of cases can be “rejuvenated” to within about 90% of new as if some organic like healing process at work, weird. Only hobby stuff but, gets around many issues. So opened the packs up, drilled holes adjacent to + & – of each battery so external circuits can control charging far more precisely. Quite a few of them were discarded due to it seems batteries not charging or discharging equally regarding the settled voltage.
Have few older Ryobi packs with that extended 3 pin comparatively awkward charger connect unlike the flatter one shown here. Posted in Transportation Hacks Tagged battery, ebike battery, ryobi Post navigation
Those Ryobi cells certainly seem to have carved themselves a niche in our community! Take a look at the video below the break for more details. The benefits of this are immense as they bring a good-quality conversion within reach of many more bicycle owners, with all parts being only a simple online order away. The value in this is in its reminder that these packs have evolved to the point at which they make a viable alternative to a much more expensive bike-specific pack, and that their inclusion of all the balancing and protection circuitry make them also a much safer option than building your own pack. The bike conversion is relatively conventional with the crank replaced by a crank and motor assembly, and a pair of the Ryobi packs in 3D-printed holders on the frame. Their project was to convert a pedal bicycle to electric assisted power, and in doing so they didn’t make their own pack but instead used off-the-shelf 40V Ryobi power tool packs.
Happily for those who are apprehensive on the battery front there’s a solution courtesy of a group of engineering students from the University of Pittsburgh. But it’s not a path without hazard, and mistakes with battery protection and management can be costly. By now, the process of creating custom lithium-ion battery packs is well-known enough to be within the reach of most makers.
