DIY Makita Powered Dyson Vacuum

- I'm at it again. This time I power up a Dyson vacuum with a Mikita battery. Having learned from the Milwaukee build from last month, I've refined the build and it turns out awesome. With impressive run time.

This is an updated version with a switch. It will make things even easier. amzn.to/41ArLSL
These are the switches that I used. They are an AC switch so the light won't work in them but they are small and work just fine. amzn.to/3pB5bMj - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต

obrigado meu amigo. abraço de Portugal
Cool video ty, been struggling lately to Tinker in my shop
I hear ya. It’s a struggle for me sometimes as well.
👍💯 1000 subscriber , good luck 👍
Wow, thank you so much.
I like makita guy!!!!!
I’m a Makita guy as well (you seem to have more Milwaukee tools than Makita in the video!), I find it problematic to convert Makita batteries for other uses since they are 18 volts. A lot of devices use 20-24 volts and render the Makita batteries not usable. It’s great to know that your conversion works on a 21.6 volts Dyson vacuum.
You’re right, I am a Milwaukee guy. I did this conversion for a friend of mine. He loves it and hasn’t had any problems whatsoever.
THANK YOU for not making a bunch of old fashioned sexist comments that have had me nope out of all the other videos so far. When you vacuumed the house, did you do that on high power? It can do a whole house on high power??
You’re very welcome. I don’t find a need to use high all the time during my vacuuming but I highly doubt you would be able to do the whole house on high. My vacuum doesn’t really like to be on high for very long. The filters have to be perfectly clean for it to run for extended periods of time and then I find that the thermal protection kicks in and shuts it down after a short period. So I want to answer your question with a no. Thanks for watching.
Can you do a video for dewalt 20v for dyson v10?
Best intro I've ever seen! Amazon has these things already ready to go....so you don't have to do your own work...is there something wrong with those?
I totally forgot about that intro. I laughed my ass off. Thanks for bringing it up.
That video is almost two years old now. The pre made ones are popping up all over the place now. That wasn’t the case back then. Still, some guys like to build things themselves. And to those people… I salute you.🖖🏻
Do you not need to put some battery module in to prevent the lithium battery’s from over discharging?? Sure my bosch fully charged is 20v and when it cuts itself out it’s at 16v. If there wasn’t any discharge protection you risk damaging the battery and it not charging again no?
You kind of answered your own question. The battery has its own protection. Plus, how long do you plan on vacuuming for? I vacuum my whole house in about 1/2 hour and I've never killed more then 2 bars on the battery. And when I'm done I take the battery off and charge it again. I would think that anyone vacuuming for an extended period of time would at least have the smarts to check the battery once in a while. This build is like any DIY build, it doesn't come with any guarantees and the person using it has to be smart enough to know how to use it and take care of it.
@@i.b.lancer apologies, this wasn’t any dig at what you was doing, I was merely questioning if the battery needed any protection, I plan on using my 18v for a diy soldering station box with a few other gizmos and it made me wonder what the other 3 pins were used for, assume charging but didn’t know if it was the battery or the device ie drill that protected the battery cells
@MrLegend139 for anyone reading in the future, modern name brand batteries have a logic board in the battery that protects them. You just use the factory charger to charge it, it won't charge on the dyson cradle without the dyson battery pack.
Just converted mine, on max suction the Dyson turns off. Any suggestions?
Wow that's really weird. I've done this Makita conversion and 2 Milwaukee conversions and I haven't run into that issue. Did you use at least a 12 awg wire? I can see that a wire that's not thick enough might restrict the amperage needed and shut down the motor. But that's all I can think of. Make sure your battery is fully charged. Other than that, that's all I god.
your battery might be at the end of its life. that shuts down when it isnt getting enough amperage (i think)
For anyone reading this a year later, it also could be an underpowered battery for that device. 1.5Ah or 2.0Ah are likely too low a rating to support that vacuum. I would expect 3.0Ah to work, and 4,5,6Ah to vacuum a house in one go.
Higher amperage draws will kick a compact battery into protection. Some knockoffs won't, and they can damage a device or the battery.
Hi, I have a Dyson v7 and was looking at getting the Makita battery attachment, what is the run time ? Is it worth doing ? Edit P.s I will give you your 2 subscriber's now to get you to the 1000 mark good luck 👍👍
I really appreciate it. The Makita build was for a customer and he's hasn't complained about anything yet. I tested it after I built it and vacuumed for 15 minutes and it only killed one bar on the battery so you should be able to get at least 1/2 hour out of it. I know on the Milwaukee one I build for myself I get a 1/2 hour out of a 5ah battery. Thanks for watching.
holy shit, i am so doing this with my POS dyson vacuum, I HATE the batteries.
Yes
there are tons of adapters on AliExpress now. for any battery to your dyson
Not for dyson v10 only dyson v6-7-8.
