    It would be nice to have adapters with a step down for really battery hungry tools around the home base, like big saws (band, table, chop, etc) and belt sanders

    4:18 Alright, not complicated, I know. I’ve gone through this several times over the last 6 months. Reassembly is not at issue. What IS, is the quality of these cheap garbage clockworks boxes. Oh, “High-Torque Quartz Crystal Movement”, you say? My rear end they are. Not one of the FOUR that I have purchased from 3 different Amazon “companies” at anywhere between $9 and $26 lasted more than a week!!! It’s all cheap Chinese crap!

    Very clear instructions to follow. Clear video. Really helped me get to understand what I was getting into. Thank you!! I am just learning to replace the quartz movement and the hands of 2 different cheap clocks. So good to see them functioning again. My father gave me several big wall clocks I would love to get working again. Practice!!

    What did you actually show us? I don't understand the purpose of this video. You kind of missed the most crucial part: Installing PySimpleGUI on raspberry pi. Like, as far as I can find it is not possible to do. So how did you do it and why didn't you think to add that into a DIY video??

    I'm checking this out because I have a Kobalt string trimmer as well as a mini tiller that both have failed batteries. I would still like to use them with new batteries if I ever buy them (they're not cheap). As much as I'm not thrilled about adding a cord to either of these tools, it'll do fine for my needs. I was thinking about cannibalizing the batteries to make dumbie-plugs. So I'm pooling resources from YT vids to see what others are doing.

    I just found this in my feed, probably because i sub to a ton of tinkering channels lol. Anyway, I am obsessed with repurposing electronics like this so am glad to find another tinker dude. I appreciate the amount of time and effort to make these videos and notice its a few years old so my input may be completely obsolete but... I think most viewers do not like the music bed in videos like this. We want to focus on the words and actions. Secondly and more importantly we viewers need to see the circuit board when the maker is soldering or altering it at all. I understand that its a pain to make up a schematic (but we appreciate it when someone does!) but if there is at the very least a close up shot that we can pause on to make notes it is helpful. I am experienced with electrical engineering so understood what you did but most of us are average folks who are using these to learn the ropes because they too want to tinker and need to actually see the work, at least after its soldered. Once again, thank you for the video and it was very enjoyable!

    Thanks for the explanations. Over the past several years I used four 50 ft #12 extension cords plugged into a 15 amp outlet about 50 feet from the breaker panel to power a Skilsaw. The use was not always intermittent. The saw seemed to be somewhat underpowered but never got too hot, still did the job, and seems just as good today. Maybe Skil made those old saws tough enough to survive significant voltage drop. I recently made a #8 250 foot "extension cord" (plugged into a recepticle near the breaker panel protected by a 15 amp breaker). The saw is noticably more powerful.

    Yeah and HiKoki just sells those just saying. For me a gamechanger and a fresh revelation would be a switch on FlexVolt to choose 60/20 Volt feed to choose if I grind or I cut stuff to prolong battery life. Can it be done DIY ?

    Putting back the cord to cordless tools is trying to have the same benefits of a laptop. At least that's how I see it. And it's worth while effort for the more power hungry tools like circular saws, angle grinders, etc. These tend to chew through (big) batteries much faster than a drill or a driver. I'm currently investigating this topic as I also want to build a corded adapter myself. This is how I found your video. My thoughts on this: best candidate for conversion would be brushless tools, because you'll have more protection features implemented in the motor controller. If it has soft start, kick back or motor stall protection, it will get rid of the major head-ache of having a supply able to provide the motor stall current repeatedly without giving up the ghost. Motor stall current tend to be significantly higher than working current, even under load. Before checking our your other videos on the topic (I'm curious to see how you built it): If you go the transformer route: get a toroidal transformer. I'm not sure if I'd add a DC/DC converter, to provide a regulated voltage to the tool, maybe just a voltage clamp, to keep the no-load voltage in check. And I'd put as much filtering capacity as I can after the rectifier, to lower the overall impedance of the supply. I would put the same in the empty battery shell at the tool. This build would require having the transformer in a sepparate box, and some heavy gauge wire in between the box and battery shell. But as you said: if you already factor in the price of the transformer, and the rest of the needed components, you are already in the price range of full AC/DC converters in the same power range, with the benefit of a significantly lower weight. Again, lots of caps in the battery shell, to provide a nice energy buffer right at the tool and also to compensate the additional impedance from the wires. Plus a switch mode power supply may have also the feature to compensate the voltage loss across the wires connecting it to the load (using smaller gauge sense wires, connected at the point of load). Now... having rambled enough, I'll go take a look at the rest of the videos you made on this topic. To wrap it up: great video, you nailed a lot of valid points.

    You REALLY should add a low voltage shut off, specially with them constantly drain the battery, if the cells completely deplete you'll just have a very expensive paperweight.

    you show the variable as an int, but you are using values less than 255 as bytes - the eeprom stores bytes, so does your int allow 32000 as a value?
