    To clarify, the resistor used in this video was 1/4W 10k ohm. The 2watt did not work.

    can you do that with a 20 volt

    I'm trying to get the hercules 20v radio to work with makita 18v battery.
    I hooked up + - and the radio turns on but turn shut off I guess need a resistor?

      @shuggakaine9257  Рік тому

      Hey Steve, I'm not familiar with the Makita batt resistance. But you need to get a reading of both the radio and the batt. the batt resistance must match the radio. if not then a resistor is needed. this is usually the third pin on the Dewalt.

    Same for the 20v?

      Im not sure, i havent opened up a 20v tool, nor tested the resistance on the Battery pack.

    This guy gave you the wrong information. The UA-camr ua-cam.com/video/HQTbTE3OZjg/v-deo.html used a 10K resistor in the ratchet modification not a 10 ohm as he mentioned.

    • @shuggakaine9257
      @shuggakaine9257  Рік тому

      10K OHM is what i used. if you take a reading you will see its not perfectly matched to the Batt. However it works. I tried 1/4 - to 2watt. only the 1/4 worked..

    I just did mine and it Burt up the motor within a couple minutes. Not sure if I just had bad luck or what. Is yours still working? I did my two ratchets a year ago and have used them a lot.

      @@Chevyblazer88 Mine has been working fine for the past couple months, i use it without any overheating.. i use it constant for about 5mins then put it down, and so on.. How long do you keep it running? Perhaps i can do the same and see if my motor stops..

      I didn’t even get to actually use it I was just playing around with it to see that it worked. It probably only had 2 minutes of run time together and maybe 20 seconds of continuous.
