Battery Powered Welder in a Dewalt Toughsystem Box Tes4

follow along as I test this battery powered Flux Core Welder I built into a small toughsystem 2.0 box as an emergency trail welder. This was not completely charged at the beginning but it put down 50" of weld bead

[@JeepsLimited]

I can think of a time recently that would have been helpful.

[@_ltor]

Would have been handy lol

[@FaithHaley-kq4eh]

This is so cool!! How do you handle the different needs of voltage for charging versus using?

[@_ltor]

I have a little switch that I've now protected with breakers to swap from series to parallel

[@alexmynott879]

Is this something you have done? If it is can you do an in depth break down of it if possible?

[@_ltor]

Yes, I built this myself, I can absolutely post a breakdown video of it if you are interested, ended up costing about 300 bucks all said and done
