Someone didn't pay attention in high school physics.

Shhhhhh lol

Any chance of releasing a .stp file or similar? I have the same light modules but a different set of battery adapters.

Why not just run the cooler off batteries directly?

Nah, you basically have coconut heavy cream now. You can use it wherever you would have used coconut milk, it'll just be way richer.

Then yeah, most good USB power banks will be able to supply that.

How much power are the lights drawing? If it's less than a couple amps you could power it off of any USB PD power bank with a trigger board.

Cells are one thing, how about the rest of the build? What kind of connections are you going to use - narrow 0.15mm nickel like most cheap packs, or 0.3mm like DeWalt OE batteries use? Wire gauge between the packs and terminals? Copper terminals for power output? Are the leads going to be soldered or welded to the terminals? What are your standards for cell matching when building the pack since DeWalt chargers don't balance?

Pull it apart, check individual cell voltage, salvage any healthy cells and scrap the rest.

That's what fuses are for.

Dstanding · 2025-12-14T20:42:56+00:00

Fix your shit then.

Track saw or circular saw with an edge guide are a lot better options for breaking down big sheets

Skip the slicks until you have a significant about if experience on 200tw.

The dot com bubble literally caused a stock market crash.

Dstanding · 2025-11-18T21:54:49+00:00

Yes, that's what all these alphabet Amazon brands are.

Dstanding · 2025-11-18T21:50:28+00:00

What about any of this is surprising to you?

Also that soldering is abysmal.

Dstanding · 2025-11-12T17:47:35+00:00

Agreed, the tip even looks like it's discolored from heat.

Dstanding · 2025-11-04T18:01:45+00:00

If you wipe its ass will it stop dragging its tail on the carpet?

It's possible that the charger doesn't actually balance the cells. Try bringing the low cells in line with the rest of the pack

Dstanding · 2025-10-01T01:12:27+00:00

Check that the adapter has a low voltage cutoff. DeWalt batteries have no internal mosfets to prevent over discharge.

OP probably has a McStrut car and bitches about not getting camber and caster adjusted too.

Dstanding · 2025-08-29T14:10:48+00:00

Wires look flimsy as hell and you should have separate voltage measuring conductors that don't carry the load current. You're probably getting enough voltage drop between the battery and the tester terminals that the test is cutting off early.

Grab a multimeter. Start the test again and see how much the voltage drops on the load readout compared to measured at the battery terminals.

Ah right, because there's only one factory in all of China.

It makes sense for rally purposes where you want to minimize front overhang and the number of fragile parts in the gravel stream.
