  • @kctyphoon
    @kctyphoon 7 місяців тому +20

    Suggestions: The battery adapter should be mounted to the bottom of the box, with the battery's indicator lights facing outwards, in the same direction of the switches (just like the battery would normally mount on a tool) This way you can easily check the battery's level of charge, and so you don't have this giant thing sticking out off the wall waiting to bump your shoulder EVERY time you walk by.
    With the battery relocated (where it should have been), you make room for more switches in the door, (for a master switch right off the battery adapter instead of having to use that dinky switch on the battery adapter you bought, which is forcing you to mount it in a horrible location) or to mount the screen of the charge level monitor into the door's face so its constantly viewable from outside the box.
    I'll accept a 5% royalty for every until sold of the new design.
    I'd also check to make sure it's OK to plug USB chargers into that dual USB port you included, considering that's meant to be installed on a 12v system, and you have a 20v battery powering your setup without a step-down.

      Spot on assessment. I’d even look into mounting 2-3 on the bottom and wire them in parallel. Otherwise using a single battery for lights and charging phones will result in changing out the battery pretty often in a single work day.

    I had a comment typed up about draining the batteries too much and using fuses while the video was still playing. I'm very glad to see that you and Sergio actually mentioned that and did a professional job. Too many people are just throwing this kind of stuff in their vehicles without using the proper safety measures.
    One small note though: The internals of a Milwaukee 18V are EXACTLY the same as a DeWalt 20V. 20 or 18 volt is just marketing, the voltage ranges will be identical.

    Well done. 10 Year's ago I made my own unit similar to this, for our boy scout troop trailer. In this case I only did interior lights, master power switch, motion detection detection switch. The big difference was the battery. I used a small 12Ahr gel battery ($20) with spade connectors, so we can remove the battery and charge it. Leasers have been talking about making two more small portable units for the latrine for our week long summer camp. Thanks again
