In this video, I made a DIY Power Bank with 40AH 18650 cells from 18650 salvaged from old laptop batteries. This Power Bank charge laptop, phone, other power bank and even run sewing machine. It have 12volt outlet and torch light for camping. this power bank is connected with the solar setup, so its charged and adds more capacity to my solar system setup.
I used my previously made 40cell Charging & Capacity Testing Station to know the capacity of the cells for repacking the cells into a proper battery packs.

I was contacted by JLCPCB a few months ago about their interest in sponsoring some of my projects and providing me with pcbs to speed up my projects. So I decided to restart my 18650 battery pack build project that I've always wanted to do for a ago time but got busy.

*A quiet **Generater.Systems** , love the dual fuel capabilities, camper is 50 amp but the adapter helps and found it still handles the load. Haven't taken a camping trip yet, that's in a couple of weeks. Will see how well it does over a long weekend.*
Very different
Yes
We have used the ruclips.net/user/postUgkxOTeIs0vv4_9B5hsmnLsk9r930uDQLu_Y for probably 30 hours with our camper and it’s been great! The noise level is really only noticeable when running the AC and other appliances like the microwave, hair dryer, or coffee pot. It’s not huge like other ones and it has wheels so even at 90lbs, I can move it!
amazing build. i liked the fact that you didnt use a cheap bms. i hate those pesky circuit boards as well. also loved the fact that you individually fused all batteries. if i may add someone who is planning to replicate this
1. the busbars should be placed more evenly for uniform current distribution
2. spot welding goes a long way and doesnt damage cells
3. heat sink for that big cob led
4. last but not the least, balance cable to periodically balance the cells.
All in all a very enjoyable build
Great suggestions.
He already used 3s 100A BMS for this battery pack. You didn't notice it?
Very good use of recycled batteries. Giving them a second life .. video was just a pleasure to watch... nice work
Heavy boosting
Thanks for your awesome feedback
Thanks for boosting
Ok, but I think u r try to spam here.
;)
"ABSOLUTE GENIUS" & a pleasure to watch
Excellent build!
Your VERY INCREDIBLY INTENSE music combined with your sped up video gives the impression that you're reverse defusing a bomb. Heh.
Hahaha, well said.
Thanks by the way.
Ticking time bomb.
No temperature monitoring.
No circuit protection.
No fuse.
Amazing, appropriate your point ❤️
No battery residence matching... indian product😂
I love the concept, but I'm a little concerned about how little support that 220V inverter board had.
I little heads up on efficiency for charging a laptop, fit a cigarette lighter socket and us an in car power supply that boosts the 12V to 19V for the laptop.
I build portable CCTV towers for building site security, the old towers were 2x 12V lead acid in parallel, the PC inside them was 12V but the camera was 24V. This system used a 300W inverter to boost to 220V, then an AC toroidal transformer to drop back down to the 24V for the head.
In one test, I replaced the inverter and AC toroidal for a cheap boost converter board, the power consumption of the camera dropped from over 6Ah to just over 2Ah.
You will get more charges of the laptop if you only boost to 19V rather than up to 220V just to convert back down to 19V.
The guts of our old towers have now been replaced with a much more efficient system that with "2nd use" EV packs in place of the old lead acid.
Total agreed to your approach. I had these components laying around, so I used it.
Thanks for your feedback.
@@MakerMan thanks for replying, I look forwards to your next projects.
excellent job sir...5star! 👍👍
Thanks
Such a great work I seen osm man 👍
Thanks buddy
Hello I know its an old build but can you give a link to the phone charger module it is capable of fast charge
Sir iski puri details chaiye i mean saaman lana hai to isme aache se nhi de rakha kya aap de sakte hai
English?
I love to watch this video but bro if you explain each and every section it would be better ❤ for better understanding
music was to intense for me, must be cause i'm getting old
Photovoltaic / Solar Thermal Technician here and i approve i Like, OLE'!
Thanks for your feedback.
That led would be pretty handy
Yes
Can you provide the List of Materials used?
hello...parallel connected with your 70AH battery solar...I thought we could do it if and only if the 2 batteries were of the same condition and capacity, right?
Did you rely on the site to arrange and distribute the batteries
Is the arrangement real and correct?
No, i went and got from local scrap yard
@@MakerMan I mean the site that arranges batteries according to their capacity
Ahh, www.repackr.com
@@MakerMan Is he working on arranging them according to a study? I mean, did he rely on the arrangement of the site?
Sir apne jo wire joint kre hai usku ek video daal skte ho
English?
Nice work
Thanks buddy
Wow its very good 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Thanks buddy
How much would you charge for one of these?
Not thought about selling. But how much would you spend on this, just out of curiosity.
50-300
How can you check the mah of the battery
Watch my 18650 capacity tester video.
Your the best 👌 💓
Thanks
How many Hours it Comes
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💥💥💥💥such a brilliant work
Thanks buddy.
how much does it weights?
Excellent merci beaucoup
Thanks
do you have solar at home?
I hope you used high efficiency 50 watt LED. If not, then you should use heatsink.😊😊😅
You put piece of papaer to isolate upper battery from the lower one? The safety for battery was great. Also noticing batteries discharge rate. It was amazing. But that paper for isolation was not safe at all
How much did it cost?
Old Cell - 12$
Switchs and terminal - 5$
Light - 5$
Inverter 200watt - 10$
Misc items - 5$
~ total - 37$
@@MakerMan where did you buy from?
9:21 that led will heat lot,use heatsink
Good build only 3 things is the fan always on you can add a ksd temperture sensor.
Don’t solder on cells fore too long.
And no heatsink fore the cold led they get realy hot
Thanks for the feedback.
Next version will be improved.
Well done👌
Thanks Buddy
Where can I buy those lithium batteries?
China town
Hahaha
How do you charge the batteries bro
What voltage and current?
I have connected to my solar system. 12.6v
Good,amazing
What name of glue that you use bro? I need that
PV wood glue
@@MakerMan thanks bro, best 4 u
wow very tutorial.
Thanks
Is your product available for selling?
Not really, where are you located.
@@MakerMan Nagaland,India
How much would this cost if it was manufactured compared to other competitors what would be the value of this item that's including everything you installed
Costs 10-15 times than I made.
How can you get this laptop battery
Scrap ward
dont be shy please talk! how did you say those batteries are bad? what app did you use? etc
Any thermal issuees u got from them bro?
How many cycles it may give?
Plz share ur experience,
Im in the way of building one
So far no issues. Cycle not so sure as battery are from old salvaged laptop battery. But battery have descent capacity on them, so should last longer. I will keep you updated.
Get a riving knife on that table saw!
Another good idea for a video, you can get 20,000 mah powerbanks online usually for around £10, could you make one from loads of those ?
Yes that's also good.
@@ponkuna I’m not an idiot. I didn’t mention anything about ‘ultrafire’ cells or cheap Chinese junk powerbanks.
I’m talking about powerbanks from reputable brands like Anker, Ravpower, Ugreen etc etc. Some big retailers (Amazon, scan, ebuyer, etc) discount them occasionally to get rid of old stock ...e.g powerbanks with micro-usb ports which are pretty much obsolete here in the U.K.
You can even get 10,000mah powerbanks with USB-C and PD for £10 any day without hunting around or waiting for deals so 20,000 for an older micro-usb powerbank is very, very reasonable.
There are also various tools to test the capacity of these power banks, and they do have the true capacity. That’s why I asked the question, because it’s surely a cheap way to harvest high powered 18650’s or lithium cell pouches.
I’m not sure what part of the world you’re living in or how much powerbanks cost in your country but well done you’ve made yourself look very, very stupid.
@@ponkuna I’m very well mannered and cultured, thank you very much. You are the one going around attacking random people on RUclips comments and trying to sound clever.
If you read what i originally wrote, I mentioned flat ‘lithium cell pouches’ as well as 18650 cells. Flat lithium pouches can be harvested and re-used. Do some research. Powerbanks in the UK use both types of cells. Pay attention please. ‘CELLS’ are what we call batteries here, I shouldn’t have to be explaining this to you.
You did not take me for an ‘innocent’. You were being very rude saying fake capacity power-banks are made for people like me, suggesting that I’m an idiot that’s going to fall for something like that.
Wow, you put some 18650’s into an empty powerbank base, you are SO clever!! Lmfao
Led панель надо было на алюминий прилепить .чтоб охлаждалась .
Pls. Provide wiring diagram of the project.
I have not made one for this. Let me see if I can find a similar one online.
you have to use heat sink
It would be better. so far no issues, the fan inside is doing a good job ;)
Exactly name of music? :)
Sorry don't recall. Try using music recognition app.
200 wat inverter 12 volt battery
That battery pack better discharge 17 amps continuesly!
How much cost this project
You better use ABS or at least hard wood instead of MDF board.
seeing how you made it, and that you made it in a flammable box, did it catch fire yet? 🤣
Not yet, works like a charm :)
May i know the battery terminals is for what😅 i'm still learning
It’s for connecting to the solar panel for recharging
Yes, thats right.
Owesom
Thanks
How many cell used in this project
75
Second like 💪
I dont think that thin wire is actually safe
good but kindly send a diagram then we made it
👍👍
Thanks
You really should have not used any cells under 1500mah. If they are 2Ah cells then they are about 50% SOH or less meaning they will be your problem cells in a big parallel pack. If they were 2.2, 2.4, or 2.6Ah then I would not take anything under 1.6, 1,7, and 1.8Ah.
But if your access to cells is limited then I can understand using every cell over 1Ah. We have it easy here in the US, I can get disposable vapes all day long with 1400mah cells that still have 95% capacity
Yes, true
no bms skip 🤣
ruclips.net/video/YpTECXHHGHg/видео.html&si=AtZ464cfmg2eLNXi , See at 5:18
There is no way I would trust that thing in my house, or outside if the temp was above, like, 10 degrees. There is a reason they don't just do that. fans are not enough. It might not blow, but the cells will live a fraction of their lifespan under that kind of heat. peace
I have used it on a daily basis, since I made it.
flee JLCPCB I ordered two different configurations of cards, both did not work ... it's just not serious business
