BTDT, have fun! Oh, and I filled the wheels with expanding foam to help kill some of the noise when riding on cement or blacktop. I was going to glue inner tubes to the wheels, but they grew up too fast.
I’d like to know if the Milwaukee M12 battery pack has built in circuitry to shut down the battery when the charge gets too low. I know some brands have it in the batteries, and some in the tools. Please advise.
I’ve wired all my sons power wheels with 12 volt car batteries. It’s hilarious he legit can ride for hours. With two large charging prongs. Two dump trucks. His four wheeler was a little smaller so I hooked my agm battery from my $200 jump box. Legit charge every 5 to 6 hours of riding. Just make sure your power wheel is 12 volts to not burn anything up and might need to do away with any small inline fuses and replace with something larger.
Can you link your M18 adaptor deal-y too..? Also wanted to point out that you'll find traction becomes a big issue outside, more so if you have gravel around the area. Take an old bicycle tire, cut across it, wrap around the drive wheels, and secure the bike tire right over top of the shitty plastic fantastic ones using screws. Traction for dayz.
Super late to this video, but I have a kids 6v Maserati car, and my daughter will probably be in it a while given she’s still a little small for it. I want to do something like this, but I haven’t heard or read anything positive regarding 6v to 12v swaps. Is it going to burn up the one little motor?
in my experience with 3 of them it was not an issue other than too much immediate power haha, you can buy battery adaptors on amazon with voltage regulators built in also if you want to lower the voltage but i had no issues with motor or wiring burning up with m12
@@ambirbtruckdriver I ran it on the 6v Kawi ATV for about 10 mins. I have yet hooked it up permanently. I've rode it myself on the stock 6v and the gearbox/motor hasn't crapped out yet.
i thought about it also, but i stalled the whole motor out and it only hit 8amps, forgot to say that in the video, im thinking of getting a 10amp breaker and wiring it in, i am also going to wire in boat lights and shit for underbody and headlights - tail lights so i tink ill order one and install it when i do the rest of the wiring. just to be sure, also thought of adding in a low voltage cutoff but i dont think ill need one, we will be able to tell its going slow
I did this for my niece's toy ATV using a step-down (to ~9 V) and a M18 socket. Let's say the M18 5.0 Ah pack outlasted the plastic gear box. :D... I mean, :(...
Gotta be careful, my buddy put one of these on his daughter's Jeep and it blew the ESC... Luckily the company warrantied it without question, but now he's afraid to put the 18v back in it!
@@SloppyMechanics nice, I have seen they run for hours on end before even slowing. I planned on doing same for my daughter, got the car on her birthday didn't even want it 🤣🤬
I put 24V on my girl's barbie jeep 15 years ago. That jeep would do burnouts on concrete for about 10 ft! So funny (but dangerous in the backyard near the pool). It eventually killed the motor:(
added link to adaptor i used in DESC
I normally hate clickbait titles... leave it to Sloppy Mechanics to deliver the good, as usual.
The dmx reference and Motion reference was priceless.
Just an hour a day........
Because this video my kids are now able to enjoy their ride on lawn mower toy, in the grass and not just the payment. God bless you

They be driving real wheels soon!!!🎉😂
Tech tip Tuesday 🤣
tune in next week when we go twin brushless motors.
We clickbaited 100k people on our TH-cam channel with quality content.
You won't believe what happens next
Welcome to the car guys parenting game. My sons now 15yo and did the similar thing to his john deere toy tractor but I used the makita batteries.
What about a low voltage cut out to protect the battery from discharging to low
I’d like to know if the Milwaukee M12 battery pack has built in circuitry to shut down the battery when the charge gets too low. I know some brands have it in the batteries, and some in the tools. Please advise.
This is the information we never knew we needed, until it were received. Doing god's work, as per usual.

Traction for dayz.
its in the description. its a 12v
@@SloppyMechanics You mentioned you had them for 18 volt stuff also.
It's okay I found a bunch.
I object! I object that this guy doesn't even sound buzzed. And I object that he didn't blow it up and laugh, and that is NOT okay!
yo Matt what’s the best cam for my SBE power wheels hummer?
Has this modification lasted, aka 6 to 12 v and the motors didn't die?

does the 12v battery not burn up the 6v motor?
it does not with a 30-50lb child
you can also bump the 12v cars to m18 (20v) without issue also.
Lmao that DMX reference at the end😂
How long the 6v motor last on 12v??
Hey how do I get a hold of you for tuning my truck??
email sloppymechanics@gmail.com
I just dropped $75 on new batteries for my kids razor motorcycle. Have you ever tried the eBay 2 for $30 4.0ah knockoff batteries?
I bought the even cheaper Amazon ones and use them daily
Get a 3s 5000mah RC car hard case battery. Will last way longer, wont damage your milw pack.
Do you need a fuse?
Try it with an 18v battery. Got yelled at by the wife that my son needed a helmet while riding. 😂
How did the motor hold up?

That's awesome your little guy would love that. Thanks for sharing!
Did this with a 20v DeWalt. Niece loved it!
"Ruff Ryder's style" 🤣🤣🤘🤘
I bet a motor upgrade would be pretty easy. Looks like a 540 size, lots of options.
Thought about doing twin motor when he’s ready
You mean you got the big block... with power adder.
I just did the same thing.. 😂 did the m18 swap. Oem was 12v. Retained the breaker just in case.
Crackin' wheelies like ruff ryders 😎😂
I know this is sloppy, but I think a fuse or a breaker would be a good idea.

i would love an all in one unit if you can recommend as i don't want to have a wiring cabinet in this thing

i am not stepping down, as i feel like 6-12 v is safe, 6-18v i think will melt or tear up gears
@@SloppyMechanics Yup. I'm pretty sure your first video showing your mod inspired me back then.
Double, it has double the snap. Lol well done
Gotta be careful, my buddy put one of these on his daughter's Jeep and it blew the ESC... Luckily the company warrantied it without question, but now he's afraid to put the 18v back in it!
There is no speed controller on this
@@SloppyMechanics, cool! One less thing to worry about!
I didn't think you could upgrade the 6 volt? Huh....
Sloppy Power Wheel, i love it!
MILWAKEE SWAP THE WORLD!!!
need to watch for the voltage dropping beyond a certain point on those lithium's, damages them in some way
indeed, i thought many times about putting the low V cutoff on them but most he has yanked one was half battery on the small 12v

Gotta have a limit on that SBE...lol!
lots of room for a turbo
Your still my Hero #notallheroswerecapes
Holy crap... End screen elements? Fahwancy!!!
Put it on your dyno !
I couldn’t believe what happened!!!!!!!!!!
I know what I’m doing when I get home LOL
Thank you so much !
There's going to be a bunch of black plastic burnout marks all over the place 🤘
Nice work. Turbo boosted 4 wheeler.
RUFF RYDERS... rip DMX :-(
Its thursday
😎 cool
Who gave this a thumbs down ??
never even showed it rip around bruh pffft
I don't believe it - just like the title suspected. hmmm - these damn mind readers
