I Appreciate the heads up on this. Got my boys a power wheels for $6 at a garage sale that didn't have a battery anymore. Got some old screw guns gonna do the same thing now ❤ 🙏😇💪😎👍🌄☯️♾️🕉
Get ready to start breaking parts and burning up motors. I have been fighting to keep my daughters running for the last year breaks every few weeks. Mainly gear gears in the gear box.
That's a clean install. I did this for my kids with a dewalt adapter, I would recommend installing a DC-DC adjustable voltage regulator to bring the 18v down to around 14v so you don't burn up the 12v motor. You also have to be careful with the dewalt batteries as they do not have a low voltage disconnect circuit built in and they will not recharge if you let them get to low.
Yes agreed, I should have used this regulator if I knew about it. I used the adapter on a broken Dewalt drill + battery on one of these power wheels and I ended up burning up one of the motors on it...
was gonna buy a whole new battery but came across this video, gonna check the hardware stores today for your recommended supplies, i already have the rigid battery, gonna try your method! , great video!
Kids gonna love the power wheels again. I did the same for my daughter with the Craftsman version. Give her more driving time then the OG battery ever did and charges faster.
We have a hilly gravel drive and those plastic wheels get no traction. I found a bike tire on sale so I cut it in half and screwed it to the back wheels and it’s awesome! Has great traction now😁👌
I tried this with my kobalt 24v to my kids power wheels. Blows the 30a fuse everytime. Did you have to use a step down 18v to 12v for your kids power wheels?
That’s so cool!!! It just reminds me of how many of those toys I pass up on side of the road that could be fixed !!! Thanks man!!! I’m going to keep an eye out!!👍🏻
Should keep cheap upgrading the Power Wheels as the kids grow up and slowly turn it into a battery go-kart! Helps teach the kids essential skills and is SUPER fun!
Have you ever changed the motors? I saw you ride it and was impressed. Wasn’t sure if that was the original motors or if the better battery just helped out?
I am doing a project with battery operated toy vehicles just simply trying to make it go a little faster wont 12v to 18v burnout the toy radio in the vehicle ?
tried this for our daughters' power wheels and it was working fine for a day and the next day it doesn't want to run anymore, any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏻
I got a power wheel on market place. I can't tell if its a power wheel or a knock off. Can all of em take that battery or how can I tell if mine is genuine or not...or does it even matter?
There's a huge community of people in the power wheel groups. I'm sure there's crazier builds. I followed a little. My son's has the Lighting McQueen and I upgraded his 6v to 12 lead acid battery. It was plenty of power. I heard you can even go to 36v safely.
I got the SafeAMP Wire Harness Connector and a dewalt adapter for my 18v dewalt battaeries but its slower than the 12v. Both the adapter and the harnes connector have fuses. Could that why its not performing?
I did this and my milwaukee 18v battery died within a minute and it was fully charged! is there another 18v battery i can buy for this that will last longer?
@@eazyd1983 you take a jumper cable preferably a 12 gauge and jump the positive terminal to a positive spot on the battery and the negative plug to a ground and it’ll jump it just enough to charge
Important to have the fuse in line also to save the lithium ion battery!!! Need to have a low power cut off! Or make sure your kid doesn’t run these batteries completely dead! It will ruin the battery before the summer is over.
looking to hook this battery set up to a water pump in the bed of my truck for auto detailing, pulling from a water tank. What do I need once I buy the Milwaukee M18 Battery Adapter, I know nothing about wiring , totally new
@@juanmaldonado817 like voltage controller of sorts. I bought three that look like a small square box with a heat sink on the end and a knob on the other end. These motors were designed for 6-12 volts. I’ve been throwing 20v at them and so far they’ve held up but the batteries can’t handle the draw and heat up
@@juanmaldonado817 what is your volts setting? I haven’t had a chance to install or set mines up yet. Doing other projects at the moment. The amp draw might be too high. I’ve notice kids are not consistent with the peddle causing multiple surge draws in a very short period of time (stop, go stop go and so on). Might be best to have two batts in parallel.
@@gmax341 well iv seen that if i use my milwalke bat the voltage cut off will cut the batt at 12v but iv notice that a lot of people are using 2 batts , i think ill do that to

Great fathers like these are what makes the difference.
Thanks for sharing this precious moment with us! I hope all is well with your family!
The smiles on the kiddos is all worth it! Be blessed and prayers to your wife and the baby.
Having your boy do things with you is how you make a man. Good job.
Thanks for the great video! You seem like a great father who's raising some great kids. Rock on, man!

They do.

Can you post link want to do a car radio on a cooler
I bought the low voltage alarm and DC regulator, can you explain how they are all connected?
Yes agreed, I should have used this regulator if I knew about it. I used the adapter on a broken Dewalt drill + battery on one of these power wheels and I ended up burning up one of the motors on it...
How do u wire it ?? I have 2 range rover . All love bud
was gonna buy a whole new battery but came across this video, gonna check the hardware stores today for your recommended supplies, i already have the rigid battery, gonna try your method! , great video!
This is the easiest version of this mod I found on UA-cam. Appreciate you.

My son's mom sat on his on Christmas Day after the second lap around the house and broke it It still gets on my nerves 3 years later
My wife did the same thing!
Big gal huh
Looks like the lesson here is avoid big girls with big egos lol
Bro I’d be frustrated too.
Is be mad to man, thats memories w the boy gone🙄 cuz she thought she was being funny
This video......wow speechless at the same time have so much to say.......wow..... great FAMILY. Keep doing what you do. Best video on YT EVER!!
Had to clarify that it wasn’t his idea to let all three on such a dad move especially in front of mom 🤣🤣🤣 such a cool dad man !!!
Can it damage the motor if you put higher voltage battery?
I think you can, that's what puts me off
Won't this over power and over heat the motor and wiring?
very cool video! I have a little man too and not going to lie the battery stuff was very informative but watching you guys having fun was awesome!
We have a hilly gravel drive and those plastic wheels get no traction. I found a bike tire on sale so I cut it in half and screwed it to the back wheels and it’s awesome! Has great traction now😁👌
Sprayed some flex seal on the plastic wheel.... gription!!
Awesome ‘ looking to do this mod , did your electronics hold up fine with this battery upgrade ? Is it still working ?
Did you change your 12v controller
Is this setup for all power wheels or does it vary
I’m so glad that connectors only have 2 genders.. it makes things so simple
😅😅😅😅
ironic right 😂
😂
I'm dying 😂
Lmaoo Houses unfortunately uses a Gender neutral!
I tried this with my kobalt 24v to my kids power wheels. Blows the 30a fuse everytime. Did you have to use a step down 18v to 12v for your kids power wheels?
Thank you for the info.
PS- Titus is a good helper. I like his long hair!! Go get the robbers, Titus
That’s so cool!!! It just reminds me of how many of those toys I pass up on side of the road that could be fixed !!! Thanks man!!! I’m going to keep an eye out!!👍🏻
I pick them up everytime I see them. Just had a race on the weekend. 90% of the time they are a very easy fix.
What a great dad

I want to ask that you have only changed the battery ,not the motor????
Your daughter helping you is super cool.
It’s a boy
It’s a boy
It’s a boy
That's nice. Is better than a go-cart. Is pretty cool. 👍👍👍👍
Could I get this stuff at Walmart, Lowe’s, harbor freight, or something like that?
What an amazing father 🥰 Lucky kids !
Good morning. How do we do it if the car has two 6 volt motors. Thank you
Did you change the gearbox for the same voltage?
Have you ever changed the motors? I saw you ride it and was impressed. Wasn’t sure if that was the original motors or if the better battery just helped out?
what is the best battery to use to have the best performance?
Huffy Green Machine 360, any idea how to upgrade these ?
I have my kids car comes with 2 batteries 7A , can I replace it with bigger one piece or need a compatible one?
You are a great father it is inspiring
I am doing a project with battery operated toy vehicles just simply trying to make it go a little faster wont 12v to 18v burnout the toy radio in the vehicle ?
Does this can work with 4Ah 40 V ryobi battery ?
For a couple of minutes maybe. Then those 12 motors are going to burn out.
As a father of a 7 year old I was waiting for the “why?” After the male/female connector lesson 😂
this is exactly what i needed. thanks bud!
tried this for our daughters' power wheels and it was working fine for a day and the next day it doesn't want to run anymore, any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏻
I did the ryobi verson and it keeps blowing fuses
Its not gunna last long feeding that 12v dc motor almost double the voltage… you need a step down buck converter to regulate the voltage at 12
Yeah this is what am i thi king too
I’m doing this now how do I wire in buck converter with low voltage detector and voltage controller
Happy kid. Can’t beat that.
I got a power wheel on market place. I can't tell if its a power wheel or a knock off. Can all of em take that battery or how can I tell if mine is genuine or not...or does it even matter?
60V !? Maybe with new motors, wheels, axle, frame, suspension, disc brakes, seats, harness, roll cage... Sounds fun! :D
Yeah. I was thinking it would be a pretty high upgrade for that 60V battery. 🙂✌️❤️
There's a huge community of people in the power wheel groups. I'm sure there's crazier builds. I followed a little. My son's has the Lighting McQueen and I upgraded his 6v to 12 lead acid battery. It was plenty of power. I heard you can even go to 36v safely.
Very nice! Do I need a 9ah 18v battery to do the upgrade or would a 6ah work? I found some 6ah 20v batteries for sale just wondering. Thanks
Ah (Amp hours) just tells you how long the battery will last. 6ah will work but won't last as long as 9ah before needing recharged.
My upgrades were working but all of the sudden my 30 amp fuses are are blowing in all four power wheel cars. Any idea what could be causing this?
Yea the fuses are wearing down
@@RTsnipes They are brand new ones that are blowing.
@@jeffdeporter628 hmmm maybe short circuit somewhere or faulty wiring?
Did you only change the Akku from 12V to 18V without changing anything on controller board or motors? :)
I got the SafeAMP Wire Harness Connector and a dewalt adapter for my 18v dewalt battaeries but its slower than the 12v. Both the adapter and the harnes connector have fuses. Could that why its not performing?
super easy to install, thanks for the tips and links
Where can I find this battery adapter please o. Linke
its like putting a 50 shot of nitrous on that beast. it was flyin!
Where do you buy the battery
Would I be able to keep the stock controller?
No, if you do you will blow the motors
Is this the coolest dad in the block or what?!
I did this and my milwaukee 18v battery died within a minute and it was fully charged! is there another 18v battery i can buy for this that will last longer?
Don’t connect directly the 18v. You’ll need this PWM DC Motor Speed Controller Switch 30A. Hope this helps.
I learned the hard way that's exactly what I did I didn't know
This does help, thank you. Another forum recommended the same. What volt setting should it be set to? 18v?
@@Rivster7918v input, 12-14v output, I would say.
I just did this and it definitely goes faster but now the music functions and the remote don’t work. Not sure what happened? Anyone help?
Will it blow out the 12v in end
Awesome Build! Quick question, will 18v burn out the stock speed controller or can it handle it?
Eventually the motors will go but idk what would first , motors or wheels, however parts for these are cheap
Will this work with my sons bentley mulsanne 12volt ? If i send you the specs could you direct me please 🙏🏾
Definitely go DeWalt with the 15 amp hour battery
a regular , small angle adapter would work better...i use mine all the time
Where can I get the adapter
tutorial on installing sound engine boss
You are a cool dad ...
Do they sell those adapters for all batteries?
tutorial for installing engine sounds, boss 🙏
Put a car battery on it and you can pop wheelies and it will fly lol
And burn it up.we did it 20 years ago.fast for awhile
i do same but with dc to dc 18 to 14v to protect motore
Does it still run?
Excellent
Looks awesome. Just make sure the battery doesn't drain too low or it won't charge back up unless u jump start it with another battery
How do you jump start from another battery?
My battery ran low and won’t charge!!! I have a spare.
@@eazyd1983 you take a jumper cable preferably a 12 gauge and jump the positive terminal to a positive spot on the battery and the negative plug to a ground and it’ll jump it just enough to charge
I did this. Worked fine for about 20 minutes. Now the fuse blows. Put in a new one. Same result. Any advice?
motors are toasted
Important to have the fuse in line also to save the lithium ion battery!!! Need to have a low power cut off! Or make sure your kid doesn’t run these batteries completely dead! It will ruin the battery before the summer is over.
Sick video thanks dude!
Now that's really cooll ☺
looking to hook this battery set up to a water pump in the bed of my truck for auto detailing, pulling from a water tank.

Very cool mod!
Needs a Turbo! Great video!💯💯
How long is the battery life?
Won't the motors burn out?
Those 9AH octane batteries are rare commodity these days
Is there any guide on how to do this right?
Does it give more power to the car
So, how long will the motors and gearbox last, with 50% more voltage? Asking for a friend...... 😂
Go go power wheels
How long does it last?
Try to run a Kobalt 24v battery.
I think either metabo or Makita make a 36v battery pack too.
my son is gonna love this (i dont have children. i do have powerwheels tho 😎)
Tak for videoen, vi glæder os til at lave vores søns bil 👍
Wish I’d known about the regulators. All three of my batteries got super hot, thermal lockout and now one doesn’t want to charge. 😬
what regulators ? I just fired my son's motar today hooking it straight to my Milwaukee 18 v
