I was sick and tired of having a disorganized battery charging situation! I have tried everything. I have also moved shops a lot so finally I decided to make a Battery Charging Station that not only was perfectly functional but can EASILY move wherever I need it to be. This is a really easy build and the payoff is HUGE! Check out details below.

Is it safe to have them all plugged in and charging at same time on 1 outlet?
@13:07 - That is a lot of over kill on those screws - lol - love it!
Haha! Thanks for watching! Hope it’s helpful.
Pretty slick with the PVC cord managers. I might steal that idea from time to time.
Thank you. Please do! It works really well.
Great video. Clear and easy to follow step by step directions.
Thank you! Glad it was helpful.
I like this style of organization. much differnt than ones I've seen 👍🏽
Thanks!!
We done! This is perfect timing as I just decided that all of my chargers need a more orderly place to sit.
Thanks! Yea I can say that after about a year of use it is a game changer! Good luck on yours.
came out amazing very instructional, can't wait 2 make mine, thanx 4 sharing God Bless
So glad to hear it! Thanks for your kind words. Please share a photo of your work with me! I’d love to see it.
Nicely done video...thanks!
Glad you liked it!
Nice work 👍👍. Though would have loved to see the whole unit painted in a matte black finish or any colour that would made this unit stand out even more. Love your work 👍👍
Thanks! Appreciate the comment.
I like how you own tools from different battery systems. That's my philosophy too: Buy the best tool and worry about battery system later. Bosch makes great jigsaws and routers. Makita makes a great cordless trim router, saws and drivers and starlock multitool. etc etc
It’s been a great decision I think. I like not being bound to one platform. It does present some challenges or risks, but all in all I’m happy with it since each platform seems to have pros that others don’t. The only platform I missed the boat on was Milwaukee. I would like to have some of their tools at some point.
nice job man
Thank you!!
It was quite satisfying when it mounted onto the wall perfectly....
Awesome!
Why you have only 1k views after a week? You make very good videos. Very good.
No idea my friend but thank you for the encouragement!
Pegboard on the inside of the door for small hand tool storage would be awesome.
Great idea! Thanks
Peg board in the inside of the door for small hand took storage would be awesome.
Awesome idea!!
When you were screwing the shelves in from the back with one hand, how did you hold them straight and level with the other hand?
Great question! I screwed one in. Then adjusted based on eying it and a level if needed for the second one.
I notice from your design that you did not incorporate extra battery storage. Also with Ryobi, I have found that the charger needs to be level or mounted on a flat surface. I hung mine up but gravity caused it to loosen while charging. I do like that you use the Bosch 12v drills. I have several but I have problem storing the batteries. Here's another problem I have with Bosch. The 12 & 18v batteries are a real pain to remove from their chargers. Why can't the other brands we use follow the Dewalt chargers where the charger turns off when you remove the battery. All my chargers have a plug in on/off switch that lights up when turned on. Would love to find a long power strip with each plug in having an on and off switch. Great design and love all you Bosch tools.
Thanks for the comment. Strange. I have many extra shelves that allow me to store many batteries. The Ryobi has no problem being mounted vertical on my system. I use it regularly. Sorry to hear that you have had trouble with yours. I love my Bosch 12v drills! I do agree that the 12v batteries are hard to remove. I have to tug pretty hard. I also agree with the auto off when not charging. Seems like a simple yet effective energy saver. Thanks again for taking time to comment, James!
Welp here is my next project. This is nice. Thanks.
Haha! That’s awesome. Thanks for watching and the nice comment. I can say that you’ll be glad you built it. I use mine daily!
Absolutely. My batteries are just in a bucket as of now. This is a game changer. Thank you again for the greatly detailed information.
What is the purpose of the approx 1/2” holes on your workbench? I’ve not seen that before.
Great question! Those are called bench dog holes. They assist with clamping and other cool things that can be utilized with those holes.
So i know this isn't going to attach to the right video but uh thank you for posting your dewalt makeup video i know you ended up landing on the dewalt but because of the hours of the day that i work on my yard and because of the fact neighbors aren't super close i mean i don't even think they can hear it when i play loud music i'm gonna go with a dewalt also because that's all i have batteries for i'm one of those guys that has only worked with one brand. Mostly because the batteries are so darned expensive I can't ford to buy them unless they're on sale those sixty volt flex batteries woof. It hurts just to think about how much they cost $219.00 as of this comment post.
Those batteries sure are expensive. I agree. Thanks for the comment and Happy Thanksgiving.
Was it really necessary to glue the cleats? On the wall side you only have 2 screws and you have 4 screws on each cleat on the cabinet side.
The wall side is mounted with 2.5” deck screws that are secured into the 2x4’s behind the drywall. Since the screws must be smaller to attach the cleat on the charging station side I felt it a good idea to glue as well. Hope that helps!
What happens when you buy another rechargeable device with a relatively larger charger?
Great question! I’ve actually thought about this before. It hasn’t happened yet (5years) but when it does, I can just reconfigure and mount the new one.
So how are you going to use the wireless charger?
Great question Tony! The design allows for the battery to slide and lock into the blue case that surrounds the charger, no matter what angle it faces. I think there is a short clip where I slip it in and out.
Why does it have to be a peg board vs just altering an old shelf or something
I like that it hangs and everything is organized and visible.
معلم WoW
Thank you!
