  • In this video "How to Revive an Old Battery in 1 Minute with Using Tin Can Caps!" I will show you how you can restore the functionality of your lithium-ion battery using ordinary tin can caps. Do not rush to throw away the old battery, because it can still be saved! We will consider each step of the process in detail: from preparing the lids to installing them and checking the battery's functionality.
    - How to properly prepare tin can caps.
    - How to connect the lids to restore the polarity of the battery.
    - How to safely use lids as jumpers.
    - How to test battery recovery with a multimeter.
    - How to use a restored battery to solder wires and repair a shower hose.
    Using tin can caps will not only help you save money on buying a new battery, but also give a second life to your old battery. This practical skill will be useful to anyone who wants to not only save money, but also learn something new.

    Great video ! I hoped you might have mentioned the common reason why a "bad battery" won't change ! To keep it simple, if you milk every bit of energy from the battery instead of putting it on the charger when it first stops, it can go into under voltage and then the charger won't recognize it , so it's bad user not bad battery 😉🙃😎 NZ

    For a short time, this might seem to work, However, this method is very unsafe as you are ignoring the charge protection from the changer, The battery cells are most likely high current 20Amp (2500mAh) 18650s used in many power tools and need to be balanced perfectly by the BMS any damaged cells in time can and will overheat (Thermal-runaway) and fire. In simple terms never try to recharge damaged cells.

    Why is there a protective circuit to prevent deeply discharged Li-ion batteries from being charged?
    Is it wise to short-circuit a functioning battery with a deeply discharged battery? So only with the increased internal resistance of the defective battery as a current limiter?
    Apart from the fact that the "revived" battery is now pre-damaged, probably has a high self-discharge rate and no longer has as much capacity and power - a replacement battery that you can rely on is also much cheaper than a fire service call.
    Wow - an electric shock at 18 volts?

    I've never been shocked by a battery and have been using this method a long time now. Get the polarity backwards and you can get a melted wire that could burn you though. I just slide a finish nail in each P+&-N slot in the battery's connect a jumper on each. Wait for a few seconds and put the dead battery in the charger. On a car battery I put the charger on high start mode for about 2 minutes or so then it will see the battery and let you charge it.

    a better and a lot safer way is to get a smart universel battery charger,,,and set it to the proper battery type and,specification,i,your method is only good for sending a low voltage to the battery ( 30% is anof,,for example,,6volts for a 5 cell 18volts lithium battery, less the charger may not be able to detect it,)so the charger can recognise it and start the charging cycle,,and by the way a set of cable with alligator clips is recommended,and shoud be used in a cycle of a1seconde on and off ,,because living it plugged like you did could be hazardous if the dead battery has a shorted cell,,when you make contact with the clips you can see if there is to many sparks that could indicate a short in the dead battery,in that case do not attempt any more charging it,,🤔😉

    The voltage wouldn't hurt you even if you touched the lids. Notice that he touched them himself.
    Basically you are bringing the "bad" cell voltage above the shut off in it's internal battery management circuit (bms). Once voltage goes below the bms minimum it shuts off the battery. Jumping it back above the minimum allows the bms to make contact again.

      NOT NECESSARILY... Sometimes, the charger circuit was designed with a too high cutoff voltage, and the "low" battery is not really damaged, but the charger does not correctly sense it, and does not start the charging cycle. In those instances, this trick does work.
      In other cases, one (or more) single Lithium-Ion cells are damaged, and this trick will not work, and the battery pack must be replaced or (with enough care and knowledge), sometimes the Lithium cells can be replaced (provided that the greedy and abusive fabricator did not install a self destroying battery chip to prevent clever Do-It-Yourself person to repair his pack by buying new cells and installing them in the pack housing. That is why the world needs governments to pass and enforce legislation giving people the "RIGH-TO-REPAIR" the damaged article, as it has been fully paid by the consummer, and he has the absolute right to do any repair or alteration to his property, under his knowledge and his own risk, of course.
