@@MotersickleBumI have a brand new AGM battery that my son broke the positive terminal off from. Been looking at any and all ways to repair it. This is the first one ive seen where they apply that much heat? Was wondering if it would blow up or not??
@@bigj3086 I just used a pvc mold over the old broken terminal but first drilled down into the broken terminal and then drove a sturdy screw into that hole. then i put my mold over the screw that was sticking up and poured the molten lead in. it's still holding strong. If I had it to do over, i'd use 1/2" copper tubing for my mold so that I could just leave it in place. scuff the inside of the copper tube so that the lead sticks to it. BE CAREFUL WHEN POURING THE MOLTEN LEAD. safety first.
@@bigj3086 make sure that you cover the neg terminal when working on the positive terminal. you don't want to short the battery while you're pouring the lead.
@@AhmadAbib I would have cleaned up the post, wrapped it with galvanized plumber's tape and that should have provided the clamp with plenty of bite. This guy did it the hard way.
ridiculous to remove the whole terminal just cause the surface was corroded. a thorough removal of surface with rebuild of only surface would result in a better contact and better transmission into the battery we did notice the interior of original terminal was in excellent condition and there's no way the repair performs nearly as good as the factory made one. the sloppy application of solder from a too thin wire with even sloppier application of flux makes me wonder how lost in lalaland this guy is
was that a piece of PVC piping used for the mold?
Très bon travail 👍 👍
Es aleación de plomo y estaño?
grey conduit! 👍
I thought about doing it like this but didn't know what to use for a mold. THANKS.
1/2 inch pvc collar works
@@RussM Thanks....that's what I did. it's still holding strong.

What did you use for your mold?
pvc pipe
Plastic you mean ?
Why did you saw off what looks like a perfectly good battery post? Clean it up with a file and you're good to go, right?
Looks like the post worn out and got smaller, so the terminal clamp couldn't get a good bite...

This guy did it the right way!@@GetRealBaby

Boiling hot water or even Coke would have cleaned away that acid in a jiffy and saved you doing this. I guess anything 4 a video right.
You don't even understand what you saw. Amazing 🤩

Arhhhhh Grasshopper, you have so much to learn
👍👍👍👌👌👌👌
Best video 👍
What's in the pot?
I think he used lead but not clear where he got it. And was the soldering necessary at the start of the video?
It looks like he mixed lead and solder in the pot
1st comment.. good work
Pretty neat
