    I recently converted an old 2 stroke trimmer to 36V battery powered. Was heavily inspired by this video. I direct drive the shaft with A 24V HVAC blower motor. Overvolting to 36V with 2 18V batteries gets the the RPM on par with 2 stroke and roughly the same total power output.

    pro tip: when you are cutting metal with hole saws (especially large ones) to avoid the hole saw from jamming up into the steel and splitting your hand into two, clamp the steel with some c clamps, (you will also save motor power doing this)

    I have some doubts about the long-term capacity of power tools. The relatively large torque compensates for the relatively low power.
    The donor seems to have a ~ 1500W motor in the glory days. Does the current motor have 150W? How long does the battery last?

  • @OnlyNotes
    @OnlyNotes 2 роки тому +4

    I'm not sure if that motor is really meant for constant duty... Like, running it at it's rated voltage for 10-15 minutes at a time. Then again I guess it would get a cooldown in between battery charge cycles.

      Yes that's correct. But the leverage to balance the rod while maneuvering left and right swing will be a problem. Motor at the lower end will make it very heavy to move. But your point is valid. Can be mounted on couple of wheels to roll on the ground thereby relieving us of the load.
