Q. Got a Black and Decker 24 volt drill and the batteries are not sold anywhere. I always see 18 volt batteries at Walmart or Home Depot can I use ease batteries as a replacement for the 24 volt battery?
A. Nope. While the 18V may allow the drill to operate at a diminished capacity, the amount of amps drawn will kill the battery quickly.
Will a 18 Volt black and decker battery work in 24 volt drill?
Q. I have a 24 volt black and decker -firestorm- drill,saw, and sawzall. Will a 18 volt black and decker battery work for the tools?
A. in real application no...... it will run the drill, but poorly and will most likely not suffice
it wont simply run like an 18v drill.... it will run like a 24v drill with a dying battery
it wont simply run like an 18v drill.... it will run like a 24v drill with a dying battery
How do I charge/jump start the 18 volt battery of an antique car?
Q. It's a 1947 Cadillac, I was supposed to be starting it up periodically for the owner, but there's not enough juice. Can I just use a regular 12 volt starting pack, or just jump it off of my truck like a 12 volt battery, or are my options more limited?
A. First, a 47 Caddy has a 6-volt system not 18 volts. And, no, you cannot jump it with a 12 volt battery without risking serious damage to hard to find parts. Purchase a battery charger with a 6/12 switching system and use it to keep the battery charged.
Can I convert an 18 volt battery miter saw to an AC piece of equipment and if so how?
Q. I have an 18 volt, 8.25" Ryobi miter saw. I would like to eliminate the battery and be able to run the saw from a continous power source. The batteries wear out to quickly, but the saw is perfect.
A. it is possible to do this ...all you would need is a transformer to lower the voltage from 110 volts to 18 volts and a bridge rectifier to change the ac to dc....a bridge rectifier only costs about 30 bucks and a transformer could cost anywhere from 10 to 50 bucks depending on the va of the transformer....to figure the va of the transformer you would multiply the volts 18 times the max amps listed on the data plate of the drill...for example if the drills max amps was 10 amps at 18 volts that would be 180 va(volt amps)....you could mount all of this in a box with a cord to plug into a wall outlet and a cord to go from the drill back to the transformer box....the total cost for something like this plus paying an electrician to wire it all up for you would probably be in the 150 dolllar range....i could build this myself...but it would just be cheaper to buy a standard 110 volt miter saw to begin with.....but on the other hand if you have a lot of 18 volt tools then this could be the way to go as you could adapt the battery itself by removing the battery and using the shell to allow you to change it from one tool to another as long as they all used the same type battery...this would last indefinitely as long as it was built to withstand the max amp load of your most powerful tool ....
