I worked in automotive electronics design supplying multiple OEs. Any car in the last 20 years can take 18 volts. Plus you have to remember that the drill battery is trying to charge the lead acid battery, that current draw (really the internal resistance of the battery) is going to dramatically drop the output voltage of the drill battery. Nothing is actually going to see 18/20 volts.
This really is a case by case situation. The 18v battery will charge the car battery the moment it is connected to and due to the charging current it would be most likely dropped the voltage to the safety margin for the car. Yet, to be safe, don’t do it unless you are in a desperate situation. After all, car computer is not cheap! :)
An 18v would work for this. The alternator on most vehicles puts out around 14.5 volts, some are as much as 16v. The small voltage difference and short amount of time that it will be connected isnt going to harm anything.
Great tip, I wish we had someone in my area had your talent and was as trustworthy and honest as you, take care and hope you and your family stay safe.
I've always maintained that a normal car battery is only good for a couple of full dicharges before it is essentially ruined. Discharging one on purpose seems like poking the bear.
Hey buddy you know I’m just messing around, on a real note hopefully all is well with the new baby and everyone in your lil family is happy and healthy take care love everything you post keep up the good work!
No problem at all starting a car with M18 battery too, I've done it many times, last time this Friday actually (4L V6). Battery was drained to 8 V, after hooking it up to M18 5Ah battery it jumped up to around 14 V and then it started right up. Even alternator is pushing more (about 14.8 V).
Why is he brave for doing that? 3 - 18650 Li-ion cells in series with a maximum charge of 12.6v is just fine for any vehicle that runs from a 12v lead acid. Amazing how 40 people thought this method to be dangerous.
Late to the comment party but I did it on a 2.7L diesel truck (Nissan TD27) with a dead flat battery left headlights on for most of the day, no clicking at all. Drained 3 18v batteries by connecting with wire and waiting for the wire to warm up disconnect, let the wire cool and repeat. And it started right up.
I used a heavy extension cord and put alligator clips on the ends. Never tried to jump a car battery but I made it up for troubleshooting. I has come in handy many times. Just food for thought.
I'm glad this worked for all of yall. My 4.3l killed not one, but two 18v 5.0s. My dumb ass figured since it wasn't but half charged and older that it might've been why the first one went, and didn't start the truck. The 2nd batt was fully charged, started the truck, and was super hot and neither 18v would charge ever again.
Before I had a better understanding of electricity, I once plugged a 9 volt battery operated game into 120 volts from the wall. Every light the game had lit up for about 1/10th of a second and then never again :)
Just use it to charge the battery over time if it's too low. I did it my DeWalt battery on super cold mornings leave it hooked up while I got ready for work. Just enough to give it some extra power for the below zero starts on the big truck.
Never thought the little M12 could jump start the car. Also keep in mind that these batteries have protection circuits so if you try to draw too much current they shut off, that's why you couldn't start the car with just the M12
This might be ok in an emergency situation but you gotta be careful with this. There's way more to batteries than just voltage. These cells don't have the kind of C rating for the current draw you could possibly have with a weak battery. Its going to begin current flow as soon as you connect it in parallel with the battery. This can and will ruin the lithium battery with the right conditions. There's also the matter of the alternator, which isn't setup to charge the lithium cells and can cause the protect circuit on the battery to essentially 'brick' your battery. Overall this is a generally bad idea.
You would need to connect the Milwaukee batteries in parallel. You would need 400 amps for the small cars. With bigger engines, you will need about 1000 amps. Maybe Milwaukee will give 20 batteries to try out?!? Great video...had me at the edge of my seat to if that worked. I would have used alligator clips
I did this on my 4.6 l V8 Ford f250 I used a Ryobi 18-volt 4 amp hour battery and was able to jump it off without having any issues, that same day I jumped off my father-in-law's Dodge ram 1500 with a 360 in it with the same battery. Worked like a charm
I got stuck with dead battery with no other choice. I used a 20 volt dewalt battery I had in a portable tire compressor. That I brought along. It worked fine and got us out of trouble. It was on only for a few seconds. Once the truck fired up I pulled out the leads.
Been doing this for over 20years. It is a good idea to leave tool battery on for around 10sec then rest for 30sec several times to stop it overheating.
Be careful with that, you may kill the drill battery or cause other dangerous things when you kinda overload the drill battery. Usully there is a specific current limit for those cells in those battery packs. I would say it is about 40 amps for your m12 battery. Cold cranking amps for engines could be much more than that.
Im an electrical engineer, and looked this up honestly to see if it had been done before bc MAN this is incredibly dangerous in alot of scenarios 😂 definitely lucked out that you used a "barely" dead battery or rather one that wasnt super far under 12v, because leaving it connected gave it just that little boost maintaining voltage that got it started (meaning the m12 didnt have to produce a ton of current). If your car batt is super low and you dont give it a while to equalize with the m12, and you leave it connected while you crank - the car will quickly drain the vehicle battery to under 12v. Then (almost immediately after the key turn) the m12 will be the highest voltage source of a system that even on a small car draws a LOT of current (and i mean a LOT. Cold cranking amps even for a small batt is in the hundreds of amps) this instant draw is almost guaranteed to actually explode the lithium ion m12. Milwaukee uses cells that in the 4.0 have 2 parallel sets of 3 batteries, and maximum safe current draw for them is maybe 3.5 amps per set or 7 amps for the 4.0 w two banks. Anywhere over this can range from slightly decreasing battery life to full thermal runaway (battery boom boom with toxic shit) when youre drawing more than 10x rated current. So to anyone reading, LET THE M12 DISCHARGE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE TO BE SAFE. Theres a reason car batteries are so fuckin big, but in the right conditions (like this guy did!) It can totally work. Also like others are saying 18v aint gonna kill it but be even more careful pls.
It would help turning the lights OFF, AC, and other accessories when jump starting with such a small power source. Why would you leave the lights on when jumping? Also the wire connection must be solid like connected with a clamp.
Idk my 18 v Milwaukee battery has never ruined anything on my truck. A friend does the same thing. We keep an extra battery with some wire in our trucks. But I'm sure it's true. Good video bud!!
actually I believe the m18 has a few terminals and its a 20 volt battery but each terminal might be only a few cells so maybe less voltage. you just gotta find out which ones
You need heavier wires to connect with. Those small wires will provide the 12 volts but will not provide the amperage needed to start the car. You will notice that the jump packs have short but heavy duty cables to connect to the battery. You could probably make a jump pack that worked with the M12 batteries. Getting a heavy connection to the battery would be critical.
The portable jump packs use a 3 cell or better ones are 4 cell lipo batteries. Its basically like for rc cars. The power connection is short and thats why it gets away with like a 10awg wire. Those lipos have a high discharge rate. Usually minimum 50c packs. Meaning 50 times the capacity of the battery. So say its 10000mah battery that would be a 500amp short burst of.safe current. Amazing they are. I have one in the wifes car for emergency hooked with 8 awg wire to car audio ring terminals to an andeson connector. This way she just plugs the jump.pack to the anderson connection and its hard wired so its a bettery connection. Those little packs will for sure start an engine even her 3.5 v6 with the battery completely disconnected and multiple times.
I buy cheap 12v powerwheels online and mod them to work with my ridgid 4ah batteries using an inline fuse.. They haul ass with the 18v and the battery will run for about 30 mins. You have to be carefully with lithium ion to not fulltly discharge them though.
I have used m18 battery’s to start cars or even diesel trucks all the time works really well! Don’t recommend using 12 amp hour battery’s though because of the bigger cells!
I've done it with an 18 volt 4 amp hour Ozito drill battery it's started a 2.4 L Toyota I wouldn't recommend it but it does work just don't leave it on for long periods of time
as far as i know, this would work with an 18v/20v battery too, it's more about the amps than voltage. worst case scenario, a fuse would burn but not at this low voltage. Now if you tried a 120v supply, that's a different matter.
Damn son, your wife drives a beater! Hopefully this starts making you money so you can buy her something nicer. Keep up the hard work bro! Love the videos
I believe there is a fail safe in most modern cars and trucks where if you do have more the 16 volts going to the computer it may blow a fuse. So the fuse itself may save your computer from getting fried.
Even if the battery could put out the amperage to start the car, those wires can't handle the amps even for the short time it takes to start, or at least I highly doubt it.
Can use a 18v battery to start a car no problem. Have done it many times with a DeWalt 20v Max battery. Nominal voltage on a 18v pack is right around 17.5
Would not be messing around with batteries, use a jump pack or forget it. (a spark could blow up your battery, weak batteries taking a charge produce hydrogen ) not to mention it could weaken a on board computer or cause it to fail.Notice some comments on using higher voltage batteries (not 12v) is really looking for trouble.
The factory car battery actually puts out about 14 volts and the m12 only puts out about barely 11 volts. The m18 also only puts out about 16 volts or so so they are not that far off from each other that is the m18 and the car battery that’s why the m18 works better but your right there is a chance you could fry something. I just use an 18 volt battery that doesn’t have full charge that gives about the correct voltage and will start a larger car or suv
Those wires were too small to carry the amps with the battery disconnected, even if the battery could output it. Nice to know if the battery is just needing a bit of help to engage the starter.
What do you think about those super cap jump starters? Supposed to jump start even a really dead battery, some claim as low as 5-6 volts. Edit-Nevermind lol, heard you mention getting a jumppack. Assuming that's the same thing
Someone makes a jumper attachment for the M18, I never ordered it because I didn't trust 18v in a 12v system and I don't know if it reduces voltage or not.
Congrats on the new addition to the family. I was going to send you a text so you would have my info. For the offer. It's up to you, Just let me know. You are Braver than I am with using that small battery to Jump the wifes' car.
