- I have a ton of Ryobi 18V batteries that could be used to supply power during an outage or a camping trip.
I've developed more high-end ones in the past ( www.thingivers... ). I found a small simple design on thingiverse (www.thingivers... ) and remixed it by adding a cover ( www.thingivers... ). This current design makes a cover that adds regulated 13.8VDC output to a cigarette socket.
Here are the parts I used:
* RYOBI 9Ah 18V battery ( amzn.to/3ai5v6V )
* BESTEK 300Watt Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter Car Adapter DC 12V to AC 110V with 4.2A Dual Smart USB Ports ( amzn.to/30MxkB5 )
* USB type c charger ( amzn.to/30PyFHv )
* USB QC 3.0 charger ( amzn.to/33UL2nx )
* Spring Clips ( amzn.to/3kyPTk9 )
* DC Voltage Reducer Automatic Buck Boost Converter DC 8V-40V to 13.8V 10A Step Down Up Regulator ( amzn.to/2ChwlPY )
* 12V Marine Sockets ( amzn.to/2Cj824e )
* Original Prusa i3 MK3S 3D printer ( www.prusaprint... )
* USB Load tester ( amzn.to/30NVqvv )
* ICECO 12VDC compressor freezer ( amzn.to/2FhS37N )
* RYOBI RYi150BG 150-Watt Powered Inverter Generator, with 2 USB Ports and One 120-Volt Outlet ( amzn.to/3iKjwNY )
* RYOBI P743 ONE+ 18V Portable Power Source 2.1A USB ADAPTER ( amzn.to/33ZAWSo )

Thanks for this design and video! I built one of these, it works great. Note for those making this, routing the wires is probably the toughest part of putting this together, particularly to the battery contacts. I found that I had to solder the wires pointing "down" from the clips to allow the cover to slip on. Also, if you print with supports you will also have to spend some time digging the supports out of the enclosed spaces - I found that easiest to do with some small needle nose pliers I could fit through the opening and use to twist and pull the support material out. Best of luck, it takes a while but worth it!
Just found this. Thank you.
Great video, your other Ryobi videos are a great help thank you.
I just ordered the buck converter and other parts yesterday to do the same thing with the 40 volt Ryobi battery's.
I have your designs printed. I to have a tone of those Ryobi batteries. I'm a newbie to the 3D print world, and your battery cover print was my first along with RS Geeks print. I need to learn how to make my own designs. I'm learning Fusion 360 now. Thank you for the video's
Good solution! It may be beneficial to mount the fins of the DC-DC converter in a vertical rather than horizontal position to allow for more convective cooling and natural buoyant airflow characteristics.
I thought about that, but at the time it was easier to put the wires up thru the top
Awesome designs and build. I would add a battery monitor to keep track of the battery to make sure everything is good and how long would it last.
This kicks ass. Thank you for sharing!
Can you please make a car jump starter out of 2 18V batteries.
Great design . any thoughts on making something for the 40v to 12v set up ?
I've made several 40V adapters. This movie shows hacking a 40V charger and output 12V th-cam.com/video/p4xW9f1ohlw/w-d-xo.html
Great video thanks .
Pretty Cool.
Hey bud, I love your videos. I do not have a 3d printer but I have built power supplies out of old lamps and different things. I made a power supply to run a T.V. and firestick. Half way through the second movie the battery died. I was wondering if there is a way to make a hot swappable power supply. Everyrhing I know about these tool battery power supplies is from your videos. Besides that I dont know much. Is there a way to have 2 battery ports so you can plug another one in without shutting off the T.V. or whatever you are powering? It would be nice to be able to swap out the battery without turning of your device.
Does the battery have anything to protect it from deep discharge or is that not a concern with this type of battery?
The battery has a built-in BMS (Battery Management System). So you should be OK.
Which Wires Connect To The 18 volt Battery?
would loce to do it but my 3d printer stopped working
You have some great ideas, I hope Ryobi is listening! Quick question: I have a compressor-based portable fridge/freezer similar to the one in your video (but a different brand). It has voltage and current ratings of DC 12/24V and 5.8A/2.9A. With these ratings, would it be safe to power it from a Ryobi 18V battery using a marine socket without the DC-DC Converter/Regulator? If so should an additional fuse be wired into the circuit? Thanks!!
Do you have a model number? We can try to look up the specs. or contact the company. 5.8@12V is a good draw. You would probably want to use a larger amp/hour ryobi battery (6 or 9aH). That would keep the discharger under the 1C rating.
@@SerendipitySue Thanks for the reply! I have the SetPower EA20 portable fridge/freezer. So are you saying I would need the DC-DC Converter/Regulator or could I get by using just a 12V/24V marine socket connected to the battery?
@@lrich1 I couldn't find the manual for it. From the web pages, it looks like it is either 12V or 24V. The Ryobi battery goes from 15-21V depending on charge. It looks like you would run into problems with the battery protection. I found this table:
High Level:
Cut-Out/In 12V: 11.1-12.4V
Cut-Out/In 24V: 24.3-25.7V
Mid Level:
Cut-Out/In 12V: 10.4-11.7V
Cut-Out/In 24V: 22.8-24.2
Low Level:
Cut-Out/In 12V: 9.6-10.9V
Cut-Out/In 24V: 21.3-22.7V
Is it still under warranty? 1 year? Can you turn the battery protection mode off?
@@SerendipitySue Ah, excellent point about the battery protection. No, I don't think it is possible to disable that feature altogether. It does have a 1yr warranty (2yrs on the compressor) and I just got it a couple weeks ago. So b/c of the battery protection I'm gathering I would need the DC-DC regulator to keep the voltage consistently at around 12V.
@@lrich1 13.8V dc-dc are good too... some devices like a little higher than 12V
Great Video, do you have any suggestions on getting the spring clips to make contact with the battery posts? I'm having issues with them making contact even after I place the back piece in place. I've tried supergluing them to the inside cover but that takes them further away from the contacts.
Chris, disregard this question as I figured it out. Thanks
I want to put together a welder that takes these packs! How cool would that be?
interesting, imagine it takes a lot of power to weld?
@SerendipitySue I made one from a couple MOTs making about 40v. I would imagine 4 18v battery pack would make light work of it.
great video, might try this out. thanks for the files. question, do you think its possible to modify the ryobi 150w inverter and add an external 12v cigarette plug with custom plug or barrel plugs?
I haven't taken the Ryobi 150W inverter apart yet... but I doubt it has a DC-DC converter in it to provide the regulated 13.8VDC
Do you sell these? I need some help and I'm happy to pay.
What 3d printer do you recommend? I'm looking to get one but no idea what to buy. I want one that would be some what easy to learn? The software is what I worry about.
I really like the Prusa filament printers. But you still have to learn some sort of 3D CAD software to make the designs. I haven't really kept up with the latest/greatest free software.
Fantastic How long will it run cpap?
it really depends on your CPAP model and settings. A heater will take a lot of power. With the heat off I can get 2-3 days on my remstar
Any idea how long this set up with the 9ah would power the average cpap without humidity on?
A 9ah battery is rated at 162Wh. You will need to find out how many watts your CPAP takes with the heater on. I turn my heater off when using a battery. For example, if your heated CPAP took 100W, it would run less that 2 hours
@@SerendipitySue I don't use heat or humidity.
Just getting up to speed on the options with USB PD. You may be able to get a steady voltage (5, 9, 12,15, 20V) from a USB PD Trigger board to power projects by just setting up a custom cable for something like a CPAP. Some of the boards can push 100w at the negotiated 20V!
Here is a video explaining how they work :) th-cam.com/video/aIHj3qMRqqE/w-d-xo.html
BTW thanks for the inspiration on getting a 3d printer, I'm starting to get parts in for a Voron :)
Wish i had a 3D printer i would love to build one of these projects
Check your local library. Sometimes they have them to use. There is also a Maker Space near by us that has several printers for use. I have two Prusa printers. They have been very good. The Prusa Mini+ assembled ( shop.prusa3d.com/en/3d-printers/994-original-prusa-mini.html ) is < $400.
@@SerendipitySue thank you
Any idea how long this n set up with the 9ah would power the average cpap without the humidity function?
Everyone here must be an electrician because I don’t know what is going on here. I know the Ryobi 18v inverter but what’s w/ the other gadgets?
it's pretty simple. The DC-DC converter takes the RYOBI 18V battery voltage (15-21V) and converts it to 13.8V. This allows it to be used by most 12V cigarette light plug devices
So What Dose The 3D Printer Do
Dose It Take Photo Of What
You Want To Print?
How can people like me that watch your channel buy some of the things you make
I'm not really in a position to make/sell/support my projects. I put the 3D printer designs for free on the web. There are Internet services that will print them for you. Sorry
Wow.... I actually just found this version, I would really love to buy this version. If you will be willing to make me one I would appreciate it. Please let me know if you can. I can forward my email address. Thanks, Jack
Sorry I'm not really in a position to manufacture these. There are several on-line vendors that will make 3D prints for you.
so i am making a dewalt powered version of this. i was thinking of using this buck converter
www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07V9D6SF2/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
i have already powered my son's power wheels with it and it only dropped 0.3v on the output. so its normally about 12 and dropped to 11.7 toward the end of battery.
what i am wondering is do i need 13.8v for most "12v" powered items? am i going to be running them on too low a voltage at 12V-11.7V?
anybody that can help let me know
