*Lithium to Nicad tools adapters: • Battery adapter Cordle...
You will need to stop using the tool before you drain the battery too low(no worry with Ryobi, Makita, Ridgid). Don't continue using the tool to the point that the tool is getting weak(low battery) or worse stops. Stop and Charge the battery. Lithium packs can be charged anytime and have zero memory effect unlike the old Nicad. Continuing to use the tool when it's dying could damage the Dewalt, Milwaukee, Black Decker etc battery pack.

I have been following you for years and I was wanna say I really appreciate you're still putting out useful, practical videos without the clickbait or useless sponsored videos. There's not many channels that stay true to their original youtube appeal and go into full shillmode. I hope you are well and I hope maybe you do another video with the crazy cars driving those rocks way out in the boonies.
Thank you very much.
Thank you sir I've been looking everywhere for an adapter for my Ryobi batterys. Excellent video. Also I've been watching RUclips videos for a few years now and this is my first time I've felt obligated to share my comments with others. Thank you for taking the time to make this video. You my friend just saved me a lot of money in the near future.
Awesome, thank you!
I’m surprised someone isn’t making a 3D printed version of this Ryobi to XYZ yet that you made here. Would be super handy as Ryobi is a lot of consumers primary tool line
I bought a printed one from a guy on ebay years ago but someone actually stole it from a jobsite.

pretty crafty mate. I never gave it a thought before and now you've sown the seeds of progress. I am keen on the note you finished on too since the big batteries cost so damn much to buy. Those little ones I've seen the carpenters and electricians throw them in the bin since they don't last.
This is awesome! As a pro carpenter I've been Ryobi loyal for decades, and they've been great. Still have a few blue n yellow ones like a recipro saw I use daily,. Still kickass! But a a poor old simple carpenter from Western NC,. Budget is always priority and Ryobi are the best bang for the buck when it comes to less expensive brands. Plus 300+ tools run on the 18 v. I have a ton. But thru some " horse trading" I've accquired a 20v Framing nailer, Drill and circular saw and 12v impact and one handed reciprocating saw in Dewalts lineup. Batteries are 4x the Ryobi price. First thing I'm doing is ordering a DeWalt adapter, and when it gets here I'm making the adapter. Most useful RUclips video ever for me! Words can't express the gratitude as DeWalt is better is so many ways IMHO. THANK YOU!
No need to sacrifice a tool to do it either; look for my earlier comment where I posted a link to a guy who had a 3D printed design for Ryobi - even if you don’t own a 3D printer he tells you how to go about getting them printed.
Awesome channel. Glad I found it. You explain things as simple as they are instead of overcomplicating everything like a lot of channels on here. That's what I appreciates about ya.
Awesome, thank you!
@@sixtyfiveford I have a few of your projects on the to-do list. Starting on a high pressure air compressor from a window unit compressor next. But I think the start/run capacitor is bad. I'll have to see what I can figure out.
Thanks a lot for doing a dedicated video on using Ryobi batteries with other tools. I'd been looking for something like this for a while and didn't find much info out there..
Thank you very much!
As usual another useful video to help out people out there save dune money.
Glad to see the pandemic didn't stop you from making more videos
Thanks!
Great video and awesome idea/execution, thank you!
I see that Ginger is an accomplished snowball catcher. I always enjoy seeing her in the videos, thanks!
I lobbed a snowball at one of my kids the other day and she came out of no where saved them. Caught me off guard.
@@sixtyfiveford, Lol! On the job at all times!
She is an amazing girl for sure!
My daughters got me and my wife a pair of Cocker Spaniel sister puppies a week or two ago. They are about 10-weeks old now and those puppy teeth are sharp. I'm positive that my toes will never be the same again. The little buggers are smart too for their age. They are already puppy pad trained, which amazes me for their age.
Uh oh... I discovered ur videos before bed one night and watched ur vids ALL NIGHT and had to go to work with no sleep. Frustrating but ma u helped me out a lot thx lol
Great video Moe! I may try this one one day. Merry Christmas!!!
Thanks Man.
…..THAT PAINT MIXER!!! Dude… THERE is the star of your video!!! Look at that, a little drill attachment that shakes your rattle cans of paint… BRILLIANT! Gonna make one myself now! 😎
Thanks Man. I'm glad you liked it.
One thing to note is Ryobi has the lithium-ion battery safety electronics in their batteries itself whereas most if not all other brands have those electronics in the tools. That's why a Ryobi comparable amp-hour battery is larger than other brands. This means it's very easy to adapt Ryobi batteries to old Ni-Cad tools. This is why Ryobi kept the form factor in the first place. I made an adapter out of an old broken blue Ryobi flashlight and a non-working Earthwise Ni-Cad battery. I've been using it for 4 years now on my Earthwise hedge trimmer. No internal electronics needed.
BINGO!!
There's series of vids here on YT.. "Definitive Proof That Ryobi 18V ONE+ Batteries Have Built in Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC)" - watch the first 10-mins or so of part-1, skip part-2, fast forward part-3 to about the 12-min mark. Clearly shows a Ryobi(brand) 4ah batt turning off at 14.68 VDC.
I'm in the process of making an adapter for Ryobi to Drill Master🙂🙂- Have DM Jig Saw, don't use it often, when I need it the batts are dead cuz NiCD have poor shelve life.
I've found some of the lame LED light/lamps work well as a sacrifice to whack off the handle/battery holder - have done with HF Warrior and with Worx. For the fuse parts epoxy - use epoxy putty no issues/cracking.
As usual top stuff love your form cant wait to butcher some and see if i can make it work cheers!
Thanks 👍
This is what I call a Top Tip! Brilliant.
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.
The power tool I really liked for a couple years broke, and don't know what to do with the extra batteries. Only today I bought a different brand power tool. Thanks to you i can now look for an adapter to use my old batteries.
Nice I made one to work with my older Power Glide drill and circular saw using a Walmart Hyper tough 20 volt battery since the older Ni Cad batteries that they came with were terrible and the replacement ones I bought lasted maybe a few months because they wouldn't fully charge. Hyper tough stuff is cheap and they use lithium ion batteries and they last much longer.
I Have A 9 Ah Ryobi Battery And It
Works Just Great. I've Seen Some Guys On
Utube Who Used A 3 D Printer To Make
A power tool Battery Adapter.
i love your video. save me tons of money. thanks!
Great video thanks for sharing it I never knew that they make adapters I have a Milwaukee drill and the charger died and are way to expensive for me to buy a new one so now I know I can buy another brand and not break the bank
This is some great savings tech. Thank You Again.
Hey Thanks.
RUclips's most useful channel 👍👍👍👍
Glad you think so!
Whatup mate. I started out like 10 years ago making my own adapters (ryobi batteries to work on 18v dewalts) now days i have dewalts 20v line and I use any broken tools base for adapter to make it work to brand tools.
This is something I was thinking of doing actually some time ago cool stuff!
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.
@@sixtyfiveford liked it lol I loved it would there not be a method of minimizing the size of this though it makes me wonder why not just make the battery connect sideways and have it that way instead that way the peg can be extended and the height would be the same. That was my thinking why not just make an interchangeable top so you can eliminate the peg lets say and make it a milwaukee equal battery hrmmm... that gets me thinking I have two bad milwaukee batteries but I don't want to pay an arm and a leg for them so... I may just try and swap the top out directly and see how she blows. At that point I may be able to go ahead and use the
badaptor for that battery. I know you say it can't be done but I don't see why not the tool should just cruise right along in my mind only issue would possibly be a charge however with the badaptor that may not be an issue who knows just thinking out loud here.
I have the Craftsman C3 series tools (actually some of my 19.2v Craftsman tools pre-date the C3 upgrade) and while they are really great tools, when Stanley Black & Decker bought Craftsman they dropped the C3 line. As you might expect from a tool that has been in use since around 200, some of the batteries have stopped charging. Because of this I recently bought some aftermarket batteries for my tools, and I am testing them to see how they do. I also looked at some of the adapters (like the ones you have linked) but they look like they are very clunky/bulky. Do you know of any 20v battery to C3 adapters that are not like that? I am considering attempting to tear apart one of the dead batteries and "graft" the post on to 20v, pretty much the opposite of what you did in this video, to see if I can come up with something that is less bulky.
love your style. keep it coming..
Hey thanks man
And everyone thinks Dr. Frankenstein is mad :D
Also, E6000 is the recommended adhesive for re-gluing phone screens to the bezels if they become separated. It doesn't turn hard and brittle like super glue (or similar) and allows a bit of flex for things like having your phone in your pocket and you accidentally sit on it.
E6000 is amazing for everything.
I've told a few people about the adapters, I have an old set I need to fit up, thx man
It's an amazing way to take advantage of Lithium power on older tools.
Great video. No BS and right to it! Subbed!
Thanks for the sub!
Absolutely brilliant solved my problem thankyou
I have so many dead DeWalt batteries..and quite a few DeWalt tools..I'm not buying anymore batteries for them way too expensive..i have one adapter that uses the new style battery..
This idea of yours is great..i also have other tools that i can use this idea on..thanks again ..Cheers friend 🍻🍻🍻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
you need to learn to use the HACK.. right now i am paying nothing for dewalt 5ah batteries,how? ok work the hack. Home depot 791 drill
battery charger bag is $199 with a free tool. make the battery the free tool and the price for all of this is now $159. yes it goes down! .... now you can just return the drill battery charger bag in the box and keep the battery for $53 at this point but here is what i do.... sell the drill only for $125 and sell the battery charger and bag for $60. (the $159 purchase price is $172 including tax for me)... so i make $13 and keep the free battery. i have done this 7 times. yes it is still active today. i just checked. you must put the deals i described in your cart separately. the $199 deal and the 5ah battery then look at the price. now u can also just sell the drill for $125 and keep two 5 ah batteries for $47. (a two pack of 5ah when on sale is $149 plus tax!).
You are incredibly smart. I am quite impressed. I have a question for you Oh Wise One, I want to do this with Ryobi to an older Delta 18V tool. Problem is there are no batteries anywhere. Do you think I can use an Ryobi adapter and go black to black red to red? not use a shell battery?
Another great and useful video, thanks for Sharing from the u.k 👍👍👍
My pleasure!
You're a gentleman and a scholar
VERY GOOD video < how did u make ur paint can shaker? Thanks
any recommendation of adapter for lotus
Im going to put battery from bosch 18v
Nice video exactly what i am looking for
By the way you speak as if what your are doing is so easy thats awesome
Very informative. 👍
Thanks for another useful video.
So nice of you
Excellent. Thanks!
Moe, thanx for the battery information.
West System G-Flex 650 (type that) will glue many types of plastic, and is slightly flexible. 7,000 ppsi adhesion, if I remember.
And they have a phone number allowing talking to an engineer.
And welding plastic causes toxic fumes.
I Made An Adapter to go from Bauer Battery to Craftsman C3 light with the Cheap Bauer light . I Found out you don't need Circuit board at all ! She Works great .
That's awesome
Cool video. I just buy the boot leg after market batteries for my Makita stuff from Amazon. They work fine, maybe not quite the quality of a genuine Makita battery but at 1/3 the price, they work great.
I agree they do work. Their gimmick is putting in cells that are as high drain as the stock packs. So a stock Makita pack can deliver around 40-60amps of continous 18v power where the off brands are anywhere from 20-30amps. You would never notice unless using something like a circ saw that needs the full 60amps.
Cool idea thanks
Awesome job brother
Thanks 👍
Quick question, to make higher AH batts, have to hook cells or packs together in parallel. But to charge lithium packs fully but safely, can we depend on theelectronics of the charger, or is it the pack's board? I'm wondering, too, if they have the size baked into their chips, or does any of this matter -- risk of fire/explosion/meltdown from runaway lithium cells?
Thanks. Is the skil 20v tools compatible with any other batteries??
😵amazing power of knowledge bro👍
😍thanks a lot💤
Glad you liked it!
I have a great Panasonic 12 volt drill but need to upgrade the batteries to lithium. I think Dewalt made a slide on 12 volt battery that would adapt to the drill but I don't find any adaptors that are factory made. How would you go about making one. Can you give me any advice? Thanks for all the great info on this subject. I assume that I will also need to find the matching charger for it.
Hi , any way you can advise me on how to make an adapter for a kobalt battery to use on an ryobi? Please and thank you
... Not only youtube's most useful channel, but also home to its smartest dog 😄
Wow, thanks!
I'd like to adapt Ryobi P108 batteries to other older tools like Craftsmen C3, Black & Decker and Makita. Do they make adapters for that? It seems like all the adapters go from the flat to the obelisk design but not the other way.
Pretty slick trick.
Hey Thanks.
OMG you ripped apart that cheap tool at 2:45 No tools needed to remove screws! BEAST MODE! Lol
They just fall apart ;-)
Genius my friend

Wouldn't happen to know where I can get a adapter for Milwaukee battery to Ridgid tools
just scored some clearance Hart 20 volt tools from Walmart wish they sold a simple adapter on Amazon for a DeWalt guess I'm making my own
www.ebay.com/itm/Broken-defective-Hart-20v-tool-to-Milwaukee-M18-battery-adapter-/114253094881?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286
Won’t work for all things though. Check out the video the seller has in the description.
Hi,
Many thanks for a really informative video. I will have to check my old tools and see if I have any candidates. Ha Ha
John
Best of luck!
I made a ryobi tool to ridgid battery adapter after watching ur last video on this.
Awesome.
I'm looking for a mikita to kolbalt adapter. Do they make one? Thank you
Great job, thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Can you do this taking apart a new battery for the tool you want to power like a cheap hyper tough chainsaw. with say the bottom of an old Makita impact and a Makita bottom of impact fused to the new hyper tough battery ? I mean after you empty the 18650s out of it
This is great! Any suggestion on what I can use that will fit my 14.4 V B and D firestorm? Its the slide on FS 140BX style battery.
Anything to fit the 14.4v Black and Decker will have to be custom made.
Could do some some sort of plastic bonder and then sand it down and paint it and look nice and use JB Weld or Bondo to fill in areas ad make it look nice.
So is there a way to make a battery adapter using a old li ion battery because if I wanted to make a adapter to a rigid, craftsman v20, Hilti, or Kobalt tool there is not many if any adapters out there to be bought so is their a way to use dead batteries and their boards or is that impossible?
Great video. Really awesome stuff that provides value.👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it
I need one to use an 18v ryobi battery on an 18v DEWALT tool. The batteries both have the stem.
Good video and interesting
Glad you enjoyed it
Love the aussie cattle dog :)
cool thanks man!
Hi, do Ridgid tool battery have convertor to makita battery?
Great vid. Any idea about bring old tool battery back to hold a charge. Thanks
I'm pretty sure moe has an old video about shocking the battery to get it to start taking a charge again
There are a lot of videos on shocking them with higher voltage but it is all fake. You'll force charge to them and it'll take a superficial charge. You plug it into the drill and the drill will work. This is what people show videos of. However the drill batteries have no capacity so they only run for 30- 120 seconds, maybe. Take the battery charge it, leave it for a day and it's 100% dead again just from self discharge. You then have to shock it again to get it take a superficial charge.
Better off Rebuilding the pack or buying new li- ion batteries.
And to a black and decker tool? I have the matrix system snd would love to use batteries with fast charging and leds that show the charge left, like dewalts
I read but didnt find in the list, i need for a 20v b&d tool!
Red Green solution - 10 rolls of DUCT TAPE.
I have the old style slide in nicad battery (18v) for Miluakee.
I want to use the newer style 18v limh batteries AND use my existing charger (rated for both kinds nicad and lithium).
I wonder if you could make some kind of plug in so you can run the drill off your car battery.
Drop a link for the Makita teal paint!
Any word how well a earthquake xt (20v I think) battery to a Milwaukee m18 would work. Basically I want to look into the cordless heat gun for heat shrink but don't have or plan on any other m18 equipment. (I've only got 2 m12 tools; ratchet and soldering iron)
How about earthquake xt to bauer or Hercules? I think I'd seen an add for their line having a cordless heating.
Got some old Craftsman that would like to figure out how to do this. They have about the same protrusion as the Ryobi does.
You wouldn't need to buy the top adapter, just cut apart a dead battery like I do in this video ruclips.net/video/q2eaKCzf04c/видео.html . That being said they do make some premade ones for the 19.2v Craftsman to work on a Dewalt or Milwaukee: amzn.to/2UNMsvx or on a Black Decker/Porter Cable 20v amzn.to/31ZMeDc
How about making a converter to power an old 24 volt Makita drill?
🤯 Thank you!
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.
I have a panasonic drill driver. Do you think it would crossover to milwaukee? It was expensive, and I don't think I can replace the charger or the batteries. Thanks!
You want to use Milwaukee M18 batteries in your old Panasonic Drill. Do exactly as I did in this other video(link below) but buy an adapter to fit the M18 batteries amzn.to/2YX9G2N vs cutting up a tool and bond it to an old Panasonic battery housing.
ruclips.net/video/q2eaKCzf04c/видео.html
Have you ever worked with Rockwell 20v batteries..
I have a lot of them and would love to use them with other tools
Do exactly as I did in the video, just find a cheap Rockwell tool to sacrifice.
I have been looking for an adaptor for a "DeWalt 18v OLD Nicad" tool side, to an 18 Volt Ridgid battery, for EVER!!!!!
Can you tell me if they make an adaptor that will allow me to use my m18 Milwaukee batteries to power my Bosch 18 and 14 volt ni-cd tools? Thanks
For Nicad tools you would have to make one. Buy any adapter that fits your M18 or use and junk/cheap tool for the battery connection. Then gut an old dead Bosch battery and connect them. I show this process in this video. ruclips.net/video/q2eaKCzf04c/видео.html
This adapter fits Milwaukee M18 and Dewalt 20v Batteries and connects to Bosch lithium 18v amzn.to/2KcCGwo
Thanks, I also have an adapter.
But where did you get the blue battery protection, for example on the Makita battery?
I'm not sure what you mean by blue battery protection?
@@sixtyfiveford oh sorry, i see it is only blue tape.
@@Mr.Ditschy Yeah that's just blue painters tape. It keeps the scuffing and scratches down to a minimum.
Where do I buy a dewalt battery to a kobalt tool adapter?
do you know how turn a cordless in to a corded
Hi, Masterforce is the "home" brand for Menards. Do you have an adapter for that? I didn't see it on your video nor elsewhere.
I've never seen an adapter for Masterforce
Now can you do it the other way so I can use cheap batteries in y old Snap On NiCad batteries that are like the Ryobi?
Love those cattle dogs
Cool stuff. Got an unrelated question that for some reason I didn't think to ask you til now. My yardman leaf vac has a leaking gas tank. The guy I got it from had tried epoxy to fix it but it didn't hold. I cleaned off all the epoxy n tried the permatex sealant that's supposed to work with gas n it didn't hold. There's a crack on one side n there's 2 other spots where it leaks at the seam cuz it's like a 2 piece tank so plastic welding isn't gonna work on it n I couldn't find a replacement tank for it. In fact the model number on it doesn't even match any leaf vac by yardman according to their site but regardless couldn't find a replacement tank. So my question is what would you recommend for an epoxy or sealant that gas won't just eat through but will make a good seal to plastic?
The only stuff that will work is Seal All amzn.to/2IWQ4bd . The surface needs to be super clean though and generally I combine it with some plastic welding.
@@sixtyfiveford ok cool I'll pick up a tube from Walmart or the parts store tomorrow
I m curious if this would works with dyson vaccum with Milwaukee adparter on it. Dyson < Dyson Milwaukee adpart < Roybi battery.
Can you charge the battery thru the adapter? I would imagine you could, but have you done it and if so did everything check out?
You can't charge with them.
My batteries are dying that go to my little cordless drill I really like ..I have a new laptop battery from an old laptop ..I need to get brave and retro fit somethign the drill battery has screws so it will be easy to open I even have the charger for the laptop
It sounds like a fun project.
Can you share circuit diagram of that adaptor?
Sure wish I could even FIND a replacement battery for my 20 yr. Old DURA PRO Drill/Screwdriver! It looks like the battery pack has 4 rechargeable batteries in it. Can I replace these what look like AA Batteries safely? I LOVED this Dura Pro but not even sure if they make these versatile tools today. I’m willing to try replacing them as long as I don’t set the garage on 🔥..
Any expert suggestions? 😉
that goop stuff you mention doesnt exist in australia to my knowledge. i have used soudal t-rex to glue terminals up into older nicad drills to accept makita batteries using velcro to hold them in place. i adapted a 20 year old 12v ryobi (i call it the bushpig) to accept 18v nimh makita batteries then when i updated to lithium ion tools, i used a hot air gun and pop rivets to mould drainage pipe into an adapter, holding it in place again with velcro. i'd be placing a neatly cut piece of wood plus t-rex into that gap at the front of your adapter. it looks like it would break if it got dropped.
@sixtyfiveford I have all Porter cable batteries but want to start using Milwaukee tools as they have a good automotive lineup. Can I buy a Makita to PC battery adapter and Milwaukee to Makita adapter and remove the top and bottom of each one or do I have to stack them? Thank you
I have taken them apart just like that. It will work just fine. The only issue is some combinations halves don't line up perfectly so you have to glue/epoxy etc them together. However it's only 2 wires that need to be hooked up. I wouldn't use anything but the 4.0ah PC on the Milwaukee as they draw more power than PC tools and the batteries especially 1.3,1.5,2.0ah can't handle the high drain without potentially damaging them.
I've been wanting to make an adapter for nicd milwaukee to use the li-ion milwaukee batteries but haven't figured out how to build in a protection circuit yet and I don't want to mess up my nice milwaukee batteries.
You can buy one off the shelf to run your old v18 tools of M18 lithium amzn.to/3atw8W5
Just occasionally watch your battery gauge just like you would a fuel gauge in your car. You can also feel instantly when the tool drops in power. You would have to intentionally keep running a dyeing tool to damage your battery pack.
@@sixtyfiveford thanks, these didn't exist yet when I first started buying the parts. there's also a lot more cheap knock off batteries available then before.
