Have you ever built a battery drill, using a dead
cordless drill, and external battery pack? For a while, I was saving a 12 volt drill that was dead. I save it, becuase I figured I could put a length of zipcord on it, and run it to a lighter plug. Power it from the socket of a battery jumper pack. Most Sub-C that I've found in drills are 1600 mA hours, Compared to the cheap Rayovac NiMH AA cells, which are about 2,000. could use a 12 volt pack that runs AA cells (eight AA cells, Rat Shack used to have these) and actually have more power than the original pack. Plus, being able to test and replace individual cells as they failed. -- Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org .. |
