Is this the beginning of a Sundown/Home Depot partnership? LoL!!
I Have A Question
3 Northstar AGM31 PRO Vs. 1 Northstar SMSAGM480 Which Is Best with JS 390a Alternator For Voltage ???
Derrick so glad to see you back on UA-cam again making killer badass basshead UA-cam videos
I broke out in laughter when the second battery came out
I have been watching cordless power tools videos all afternoon and tonight you come up with this video. Are you spying on me? LOL
So glad to see you back
Its funny but i used to do this with the old batteries of the older drills and they held up alright but i had to use 2 to 3 of them tho on the older amps Derek. I will watch whatever you do man.
I got my hoodie and glasses, and am going to buy more. Thanks for selling them at a fair price, and free shipping is dope!
You earned my sub, this answered so many questions I had! This shit was awesome, I’m trying to build a 2.1 that I’m building into my golf bag and running off of drill batts. Thanks for all the help!
Hell yeah!! Power the whole system!!
3 dislikes are ryobi users 🤣🤣
🔥😆👊
@UNIQUE REMIXES & SLOW IT DOWNS 😆 I never understood why they couldn't carry any car audio worth a $hit. Same as Oreilies too. Boss and Duel really? maybe a Kenwood head unit at Auto Zone if i remeber correctly. They dont even carry good power cable just hard ass battery cable down to 4awg for like $4.50 a ft .I just finished building my first custom amp rack (which can be seen here) ua-cam.com/video/oUMJ1Poe9Js/v-deo.html and ended up ordering almost all my heavy wire and speaker wire from Sky High for about $2 ft for the 4 awg OFC and 50ft of 14awg OFC for less than 20 bucks.
I have sone ryobi power tools ive akways been thinking of maki g my own Bluetooth stereo or boom box powered like this . then for christmas i was given one made by ryobi . id still love to see how much sound someone could get from these small batteries . similar to the $150 spl challenge .
I also use the 56 volt ego power for my cordless lawnmower its a huge battery in comparison. Im sure a step down converter would allow someone to use that battery. Like this .. Cool video
@@stacy532 I made a bluetooth speaker box with four 5.25 inch Polk audio and a Walmart dual 2 channel mini amp. I use my Ryobi 18v battery to power it with a 18v -24v step down to 12v. It works great. I made it dual battery, just in case I want it to last twice as long with 2 batteries. It works great with just 1 or 2 batteries.
I love my Ryobi stop hating.
I had everything ready to build a Pelican Bluetooth suitcase. Know I am sure that I can use a drill battery. Thanks for share.
I use a battery like this for my bicycle, power wheels, etc Mines been powering a tiny taramps without any issues.
How many hours of playtime you get
Can we know what model taramps and at like 80-100wrms (backyard bbq) how long it lasts?
"do not try this at home"
me: tries at home
Would’ve been nice to see a dynamic run just to show what the battery did on pulses.
He's turning into Elbert Einstein with all these crazy ideas😂 keep it up Derek
Now everybody is gonna ditch their Limitless and Super Cap banks and your gonna see rows of Dewalt, Milwaukee, Bosch and Black & Decker 🔋🔌💣💥🔥🌋💯 @ #160's_Drill_battery ⚡❗👍
Haha then u find out they're better bang for your buck lol
@@svensplooge9961 not if you borrow them from the jobsite for the weekend. Lol.
Have you seen how much these cordless tool batteries cost? They charge a fucking premium plus your first born son for just one battery. Hell most cordless tools don’t even come with a battery and charger anymore. You have to buy them separate from the tool. That’s some bullshit.
@@svensplooge9961 definitely not even close to better bang for your buck. These batteries are extremely high priced.
.....yeah when you can build them for PENNIES on the dollar; buy or bid on a whole pallet or lot online of 18650's (same batteries they make tools batteries from) then get a bunch if solderless connectors and plan out your packs according to voltage needs. You may have to use a series/parallel or parallel/series orientation depending upon your specific needs. Then shrink wrap and connect each cell pack accordingly. You can even use wago connectors. Its fairly simple and makes for a totally solderless job virtually eliminating any tools needed....if you have a elementary level understanding of electrical (literally identifying "+" from "-") you can read, and able to do a little math; you can do it!!
Any plans to announce Sundown Black Friday Specials for 2020?
Big wow for that amplifier
I’ve been using a Dewalt 12 Volt XR battery to power my mini Stetsom amplifier that’s under my bicycle seat. And also I have a custom 14.4 Volt DeWalt battery I got from eBay to power my NVX amplifier book bag.
Great video .. keep it up
yesssss !!!! in car test please !
Kool sh.t like these crazy test
Would love to see that video. I've been experimenting with them myself. Built a Bluetooth tower. At the bottom is a Pyle PLPW8D wired to 8ohm, on top of that is a Pyle PDMR5 , on top of that a Pyle PDMW5, on top of that is a quad of some cheap 5w 50mm mini Bluetooth woofers from Amazon that turned out to be some of the best highs I've ever used. I'm powering it with 2 TPA3110 XH-A232 1 each for the mid woofer and midrange and 2 PAM8403 for each pair of 50mm's and a TPA3116D2 for the 8. using a dell Optiplex 780 power supply to supply the various voltages now. In the design stage the Dewalt batteries were my best friend. Currently playing around with them more with different ways to use them to power the tower in the future to make it portable. I think going to need a few buck converters and and a step up converter to make it happen but well see.
Cool to watch.
Derrick I’ve been watching this channel since you’ve pretty much started it up. When are we gonna get that nsv4 15 pt2 video?
Seriously!! It left a bad taste in my mouth for SD bcuz of that (so to speak). I purchased Fi instead only bcuz there was never a part 2 video.
@@lowhertzhighspl bro, that is two of us!!! I was literally on the site and ready to pull the trigger on two NSv415's but because he never showed the ending results or the part two of the test video i went a different direction entirely smh so between you and me alone they lost atleast $3-5k I'm sure!
I liked it that pretty impressive😱
I have try this and it do work though but it drains the drill batt fast like 20 mins of run time. I did not know if you wanted to try this experiment awesome..........
Just got my hoodie in mail a week ago, haven't wore it yet but it sure is nice and thick and comfy feeling! So if you're on the fence asking yourself if it is worth it to buy the more expensive hoodie vs their regular hoodie IT DEFINITELY IS worth it....
Awesomeness
Next you should do the Battery on that prototype! With a woofer that you choose, play like full songs and see how the battery doses! That would be a cool video.
this video is awesome
That was sweet. When you were pushing for 1000, my guess was 1010. Bad ass for real tho, great content
HELL YEAH
I got my drill battery waiting for that sundown audio Black friday sale.
Theoretically could you use one to test if a radio works like if you were pulling one from a pick n pull yard to see if it’s at least turns on?
I ran my system with a drill battery in my room when I was in high-school lol it worked
Definitely do an in car test.
I need some sundown home audio :)
What the lowest ohm you can this amp?
Would have been helpful if you’d have mentioned it! I’m running mine at 0.5ohm as nobody has ever suggested otherwise.
Dewalt battery for the win
Would the jp amps servive? Just curious I have a jp8
Can you show us how you wired up a head unit and an amp/speakers for your test bench??
I want black hoodie with the shiny blue logo. Soooooo nice.
Dont mosfets handle high voltage or is it the caps that wouldnt like the added energy?
I wonder if you wired more of the batts to make a 20ah bank if it would be cool
Can you test the 5ch sundown amp?
When are we going to get a dyno of the SFB 200.4?
Cant wait to see the sfb 1800.5
How many powerwheels spl vehicles we going to see doing this?
Pretty sure those dewalt 5 ah have cells that are rated 40 amps continuous so that means about 500 watts continuous and two packs should be 1kw and three is 1.5kw continuous which is crazy to think about for some power tool batteries
Thanks for testing this man, I’ve been thinking about making a jump starter using four Dewalt battery adapters wired directly into jumper cables to start a few old cars. I’ve been having some alternator and battery problems on my mustang and I need to jump it often while fixing the electrical system. It’s a ‘66 so every electrical component on the car is mechanical aside from the radio. I assume under load the batteries will drop enough voltage to not harm the radio even though I see in this video it should handle that full 20v fine. I’ve done the calculations and Dewalt uses cells that can peak 50 amps each. So in a bigger pack with those cells wired in parallel each pack can put out at least 100 amps momentarily. So ~400 amps give or take should boost my car just fine.
Make sure u fuse each batterys or u will smoke them in a car system you always fuse your battery’s
I put together a jumper pack that was 9 volts but tons of amperage...I used 3 modules from a Chevy Volt battery pack wired paralell and it basically helps a low old battery start a car. The modules are Li Po packs and very powerful.
Golf Cart, Quad Cart, SXS, Boat, ECT ECT. Great IDEA. Got to have the BASS! 6.5 by 4 speakers with Bluetooth in a PVC water proof enclosure.
Hell yeah
Any vids of a Saz-2500?
Totally off topic but I gotta say that I bought a 15” E series v.3 D2 from the yard sale site about a year ago and it was only $99. I’ve ran that sub so fucking hard feeding it close to 800w rms from one of the new Pioneer D class monoblock amps and it hasn’t disappointed me yet. I built a 3.25cu ft, that’s usable airspace, custom enclosure from 3/4” Birch with a triple layer baffle, sub inverted and tuned it painstakingly to 32hz using around 17” in length and 6” inside diameter round green pvc port with flat ends, no flares only rounded over the pvc and I smile every time I get into my extended cab Nissan Frontier and that bass makes my fucking eyeballs shutter lol. I’ve completely drown out so many people running 2 12”s AND 2 15”s of some supposed “high end” subwoofers. I always get the same response “oh this system is new and I don’t have the right amp for my subs” or “this is my system I’m using until I get my “real” system” 🤣🤣. The second excuse for getting shit on is personally my favorite to hear 🤣🤣. Thanks for the great equipment and thanks for the yard sale so guys like me, a disabled combat Veteran on a fixed income with three young kids to take care of, can also have the opportunity to purchase great equipment at insanely low prices.
Do have any sundown banners for sale like the one on the wall behind you?
This was definitely inspired by a bunch of bro’s hanging out, getting faded and talking about random crazy shit lol
Of course it did work the app that you hooked the drill battery to created a 12-volt current. Do it without the amp just using the drill battery connecting to the radio this is a project I've been working on
Let me know how it goes
Do a sundown power wheel with drill battery’s for power
Im gonna run a small 400 watt car amp for my subs at home and i got a 19.5 volt 12 amp power supply was thinking about getting a step down converter but friend of mine said its not needed and it'll handle the 19.5 volts .i guess ill find out
this technology needs to be made, it is time for a completely wireless amplified subwoofer hookup that runs off of a rechargeable battery system and Bluetooth connectivity. I purchased an Ecco flow rechargeable battery to start running my own test. this market is up for grabs right now.
Can a 12v dewalt battery work on just a amp?
Trying to understand more about this stuff a bit. I have a 12v 7aH battery and then a 12v rechargeable talentcell battery pack. I am about to get a taramp TS 400x4 amp. RMS at 4 ohms is 63w per channel. I’m guessing I’ll be under the 63w with either of these batteries. I’m going to bridge and hoping for at least 70w bridged.
About trying the batteries in a car with music and bass and everything. These batteries has 5x 18650 batteries in serie 2p that mean 2 groups of 5x bat in series. They should be around 2000mah high drain battery each 18650 and the battery pack it self has a protective board that protect the batteries from be under discharged and prevent the amps current. The board should be no more than 20 amps. So, keep this in mine to calculate how many batteries in parallel you can use to run the audio for a while.
Hell yes I wanna see the in car tests lol but this brings the question to my mind, what about making some real small lith capacitors or batteries like this size that you actually can run as a helper on say a 2k system where the lights are dimming?
Add a second $50 car battery problem solved
Isn't that like the capacitors they already make
Do it bump Tho!
I made a bluetooth speaker with four 5.25 inch Polk audio and a Walmart dual 2 channel mini amp. I use my Ryobi 18v battery to power it with a 18v -24v step down to 12v. It works great.
Where did you get the step down?
@@shannonsanfacon2992 i got it from Amazon. If you're planning to use it like I am, make sure you get a step down with a high amp output to handle anything you hook up to it.
I watch this video to see a comment like yours...I'm trying to build a speaker box trailer for my bike and was wondering if I bought a 100aH lithium battery would it push a 2000 watt amplifier
@@williamgarner1013 The battery should power it up with no problems, don't know for how long thou. The more bass you get, the more power it consumes.
I now use 2 18v 5.0ah Makita batteries in parallel to double the amperage to 10ah cause I like to keep the bass high.
One battery is enough when keeping the bass at a normal setting.
You can always run 2 or more batteries in parallel to increase the amps.
My Bluetooth speaker is a carry-on or else I would be using a heavier, more amperage battery or batteries.
@@orangecounty7144you have no issues running high voltage straight to amplifier?
You going to dyno the amp at 14.4?
I would love to power my car audio from tool batteries team up with Milwaukee and make an amp for 18v
That was a cool video. Awesome video. different content. I wonder what the actual price difference would be for say a 40 amp hr drill batt cell compared to a traditional car audio lithium bank of the same specs.
Im definitely trying this at home ahahahahah
sundown boombox :).
How about using a voltage regulator bringing the bank of these 20 volts to 12 to make them run longer?? Just starting the video so i'm kind of probably ahead of myself..
I would rather see ways to improve complex set-up.
1. Test difference between aluminum amp inputs and copper ones, same with bussing regardless if it shows copper is pointless 2. Show how to replace fans in amp (that is out of warranty) with quieter/stronger fans 3. Demonstrate SPL difference between subs up port back and subs back port back and..?? 3. Test wattage/SPL difference between AGM with Lithium 4. Test difference between 1 bank vs 2 banks of 2.7v 3k super caps 5. Hit me up anytime for dozens of more ideas 👍
You fellows look like you may have endulged in a bit of the dank herbal vapors. That shit makes a banging system sound that much better.
This is still better than the D4S battery!
The miluakee m12s would prob be perfect
I jump start cars with mine ...i did run my radio off my m12 and my snap on 20v battery ..when i was doing some trouble shooting....only thing you cant drain them to low else the charger won't be able to bring them back .. I had to run mine in parallel with a charge battery to bring it back up
You have to do this for 18650 or most lithium batteries when charge is too low. Most of the drill batteries are just 18650 batteries stacked together they are easy to repair because of this.
@@Thumper68 I've messed around with laptop batteries powering amps and radios before I even had proper knowledge wish I knew what I know now back them far to many sketchy shit
You can power a car stereo head unit with a 9v battery. Just don’t expect much power from the internal amp.
wat about running a drill battery on a head unite without a voltage regulator
You can't get much run time with 1 x 4.8amp dewalt lipo at an 800 watt draw. Depending on a number of factors, you'd probably get less than 2 minutes of runtime before the battery's protection circuit kicks in halting the battery. So, yes, please demonstrate a real world longevity test using 1 dewalt lipo first.
I did this and it sparked and I think I blew it I hooked it up in my car and didn’t get a light is it blown because it looks normal and don’t smell like fire or anything
What can i do to get that amp?!
Interesting, I also was wondering this 2 days ago but was like no way a amplifier would turn on without protecting itself or blowing a fuse or damaging it.
The battery is 20 volts but the amp is only going to pull what it needs so all the voltage above you amps max voltage just gains you extra play time. Pretty cool implementation of all the involved electronics imo.
@@erictheboringone5292 No, that's not correct. The amp will take everything you give it, and most voltage-sensitive parts have an operable range that will protect it from running the wrong power. Mosfets are not one of those things, so if your amp has a "MOSFET Power Supply", then avoid over-voltage. It is true that you can never have too many amps (amperes, not power amps), because a system will only draw what it needs, but that's current, not voltage.
You either need a transformer to step the voltage down or you need to use 12V drill batteries; most of the big manufacturers have 12V systems they sell for home/diy toolboxes.
I've been using drill batteries for bluetooth speaker projects but I use a step down converter. I would really like to run an amplifier straight off the battery like this because the converter is limited on amps. Has anyone else tried this? Will I burn out the amplifier if I run it on 18v but set the output gains below the rated watts?
I like to know how much is your amps sundown salt 8
Where you get that CD player holder on top of the dyno
it is a plastic/abs under dash holder. can find all over ebay and i know parts express use to sell them years ago. may still cary them
LIKE YOUR VIDEO
[BASS WITH GARR]Y
Short intro song?
I have maybe 15 of these of which 6 are new 5Ah ones. They can be drained at 25-30A continuous no probs. Essentially with them having 90Wh i can tell you they will power anything using 90W for an hour or 180W for half hour...etc etc. If I put all of them in parallel I could power an Iron Man suit for a solid 2 minutes according to my calculations. Unfortunately my amp goes in protect mode even at 15v, wanted to power the sub with drill batteries when hanging out but no go until I change it. Or I buy a at least 150w step down converter.
Hell Yes... I'm powering All kinds of cool stuff with dewalt/kobalt/Milwaukee Or whatever .. I'm still waiting for batteries to quit, but... still going
I have Dewalt 20v batteries and I also have my initials DH wrote on them in sharpie like that one lol what are the odds
But does it bump doe
I love shit like this lol
Just do some AA or AAA battery banks already! Lol
I wanted to try that but I thought 20v was little too high something will burn if there no over voltage pertection. My be i should watch it all first if only I wasn't at work 😉
What about radios?
My god. This will be the future dB drag monsters. Dude will open hatch and load up fifty batteries for a hit lol.
Saz 1500d, saz-2500d , salt 500.4 , salt 500.2 just a few off top of my head that you haven’t tested. I’ve asked before too, how do I buy 2-18” team Neo v1/v2 ???
Thanjs for the feedback! The saz-1500d amp dyno video is here on the channel. The Salt multi channel amp dynos are coming very soon. Gonna have to find an old saz-2500d to dyno. They have been discontinued for a while now.
@@UnofficialAudio what about Team Neo 18”?? Can I buy em straight from you guys?? Or?
WITHHH A NEW VIDEO WHAAAT LOL
