Well I never would have believed it but I was sitting, stranded in a parking lot in Park City Utah with my German Shepherd Grizzwald, and my car battery dead.. I remembered a video I watched a long time ago about starting your car with a drill battery. And because I had charged my phone last night at the hotel with my battery pack my battery pack was dead. I just left Home Depot where I had purchased two Ryobi drills and a Ryobi circular saw. I also bought some five or six gauge wire to connect my inverter to my batter and some strippers. So yeah ... ironically, I had all the tools needed. So for reference sake, I started my car (2013 Honda CR-V) with some Home Depot lamp wire, and a Ryobi One Plus battery which is a 1.5ah, not even fully charged. It was blinking red in the charger. Hoorah
Well look at that! I have a fully charged 1.5ah battery I need to start my riding mower, and if it can start a car it can definitely start a riding mower! thank you!
It’s November 2, 2021 at 7:27 PM and And I just did this with a Ridgid OCTANE 3.0 battery! There is a Tesla charging port about 30 feet away from me, I guess when they installed it they left some stray wires on the ground and that’s what I used. One wire was really thick, the other one was not so thick, but they seem to be aluminum or steel they’re not copper but it still worked. I connected it, and let it sit for maybe 15 to 25 seconds and then just started up my car removed it immediately.
My friend did this for me a few days ago after radio drained battery. Had to look it up on youtube to see if it was actually a thing. Can confirm this works on Vauxhall/Opel Zafira VXR/OPC. This is like using one of them battery booster packs just no fancy buttons and some ghetto wiring lol.
Thank you so much, its 2:35 am and I needed the car so bad I connected a 20V lithium battery from a Black & Decker drill, less than 1 minute and I tried: it works like magic immediately I disconnect the battery and there was no issues for the car or the battery
just did yesterday on my dads car after he left the ignition on, I figured out by myself that it can possible work, so I did the same. Wanted to check if this knowlegde is available here, wasn't disappointed
Thanks for watching my video. If you found this or any of my other videos helpful, maybe you could consider supporting my channel by using the ‘Thanks’ button below each of my videos. Your support would be really appreciated, thank you ! 👍 Screwsnutsandbolts
I thought of this like couple hours ago and the same battery I was going to use for this and your doing what I thought about. But I have voltage limiter so I don't overcharge things
Thanks, the trick with the loop was perfect even with speaker wire strands. It wasnt a very strong hold with my wire but it was enough contact to put juice in. And with a half charged drill battery
If wire is thin let it sit connected for a while before starting. If car battery is larger connect drill battery for 5 minutes but don't attempt to start. All power will be drained from drill battery. Charge drill battery in outlet again, or use a second drill battery, and reconnect to battery. After letting it sit for a couple minutes then try and start.
Side note: If your battery is truly dead and on its last legs Tip 1: Don't switch off the engine until you are safely at your end destination Tip 2: if you don't have quick release battery terminals and most cars don't, it's not essential to connect the jump wire underneath each terminal, connecting to the top or side will also work, but ideally you should use the most secure option you have available.
Nice to know that this will work. I keep an impact gun in my car, and my car has been having battery issues recently. So now I know that I can use the drill battery to start it up. Thank you!
I had never heard of this at the time. We were camping no cell service and what do you know the battery died! I have several Dewalt batteries and was nervous that It may damage my drill battery so I decided to sacrifice my smallest one which was a 1.3 AH 20 V which if you don’t know is the slim battery. It is about 1” thick compared to your standard 2” thick. At thousand point my girlfriend was freaking out. I told her to calm down we will be ok. She thought we were going to die. The only problem was I didn’t have any wire on hand so I got creative we did have the 12 V DC car pump for the air mattress but the wire size was definitely nothing compared to aa actual jumper wire, I’d say it was probably 16 gauge maybe 18 even and the actual jumper cables I have are probably eight gauge. So needless to say I was worried my battery would explode. I stripped the wires with my teeth and prayed. Meanwhile I told the girlfriend to take a walk, I cannot deal with you going crazy right now. I figured it was going to work but I wasn’t sure and it was our only hope. I figured I might only get one chance at it. So I waited probably a good minute and turned it over . To my surprise it tried to start! At this point the girlfriend saw that and she began to breathe normally. I let it charge for a couple more minutes. The wire got pretty warm ngl but she started right up!!!! Girlfriend looked at me and said YOUR MY HERO!!! And I just smiled and knowing I was definitely going to get lucky tonight! Once again my tools save the day I don’t know what I love more my tools or my girlfriend. Anyway my truck takes a lot of power to turn over, 750 CCA but that little DeWalt battery reminded me of Thomas the train that day! They need to put a little hand crank on the side of all vehicle’s.
If one wishes to use this method in order to jump start your car, perhaps purchase a 18-20v cordless hand tool from a discount store like Walmart. You don't want to use your Mikita or Dewalt $300.00 cordless drill battery to attempt this. If you kill the cordless $20.00 drill battery, no loss!!
No, use the expensive battery. They are built better and to withstand more amp draw. You ever wonder why your m18 battery can power a saw equivalent to an electric 120v 10amp.
I could’ve sworn this worked for me the other night with a 12v Milwaukee battery and now I’m sitting here stuck trying all of my batteries hoping one will give me a boost.

That was Awsome thanks for the survival tip. I own 5 hyper tough batteries and 5 craftsman batteries and 2 milwaukee batteries. I just looked and the hyper tough batteries are marked + and - The milwaukee is also but the craftsman isn't marked.
You're welcome. I'd advise using the lowest voltage battery you have to minimize any risk of damaging the vehicles electronics. I only had a 20 volt battery to do this demonstration but apparently it works even with a 12 volt drill battery !
Tried it today with a 9.0 flex volt battery and it worked ! I only attached one cable to the + and the other to the - on the car’s battery and on the other ends where they connect to the drill battery I used spade connectors to fit them better in the drill battery ! It really helps for an emergency when no one stops to give you a jump and are assholes 😒😏
The simple answer is not without a battery charger designed to run off 12v which will have a dc-dc step up from 12v to 20v, you cannot charge a battery designed to operate at 18+ volts with a battery that is 12volts. think of voltage like pressure. current can only flow from higher voltage to lower voltage. if you have 2 batteries one being 15v and the other 10v and you hook them together in parallel the higher one will charge the lower one until the voltage equalizes at 12.5 volts
I was wondering if I could attach drywall screws to the battery and hook it up to jumper cables would that work with the coating on the screws mess anything up?
I'm not sure to be honest. I think the guy in this video does something similar to what you're talking about and it works: th-cam.com/video/hLJ_Q3KcFEo/w-d-xo.html
A bit alarming, 20v battery to a 12v battery and system, this might damage the internal electronics, not all cars can handle more than 12v. Better use 12v battery packs and never more than 12v this can cause permanent damage to your electronics
I done this treat using cordless batterys and killed the cells in the battery, a very good idea but sorry to say it didn't work out for me, love your video though kind regards colin from croydon surrey England 👍 👍 👍
@@screwsnutsandboltsI tried this once and it didn’t work for me either but I did get a little more juice in my battery than I had before I hooked the battery up. I used a cheap “sun joe” battery and when I took the battery apart later one of the 18-650’s was blown up. So I was wondering if I hooked a fuse up in between the wires what amp fuse should I use before blowing up the battery?
Lot of manufacture telling must complete within 30 seconds to avoid damage the battery pack.. I wonder is it true or not, but I guess yes.. and the car components required a 12v and we jump using 20v, will it damage the electronics? Hope there's an expert explain this, thank you very much
... Very smart to put 20V over yout whole cars electrical system... You are actually lucky that you ECU did not fry or whatever, because your terminals were connected to 20V instead of 14-ish V (full 12v battery) Next time use a 12v ish battery, in modern cars it wouldnt really matter tho, they have over voltage protection, but with old cars this could be deadly
My girlfriend left the emergency lights on and killed the battery and i did this same thing and it fired right up..this is after putting a jump box on it that had a full charge on it which did nothing didn't even make the starter click but the 20V drill battery jumped it right away....MORE PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THIS AND STOP BUYING THEM EXPENSIVE JUMP START BOXES!!

@@mitchlupo3l your battery is so dead the charger doesn't recognize it you need to jump start that battery, connected to another battery so I can siphon off some voltage then charger will recognize it
when you say turn the car off before disconnect the battery to remove the wire the problem with that is you won't be able to turn on the engine as the vehicle needs to be driven for a certain time to charge the battery completely so instead i would just put something like electrical tape around the exposing copper wires and some more tape to mount it so it doesn't swing around just until the alternator has had enough time to charge the battery ;;;;;;;'''''''''''''''''''' 2 Esdras 2: 31 -100 ;,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
Tried it. Didn’t work. Somebody came by and got a jump. Still didn’t work. Ah the cheap battery in my work truck had finally and suddenly given up the ghost. $130 at Walmart got me back on the road. Was wondering why I was only getting 4 volts. Maybe that’s a sign, dunno.
It's in the video description: "WARNING ! This method could potentially cause damage to your cordless battery or even to your vehicles electrical system. Only use this method in an emergency and if you have no other options available to start your vehicle"
Back in my truck mechanic days i had made a little 3d printed doodad that took a pair of Milwaukee batteries to jump start big rigs that has been sitting in the lot too long. Saved my the trouble of dragging the heavy battery cart all the way out there. The real kicker is the batteries were wired in parallel of course, and most of the time one would get the job done just fine.
Its can work because the tool battery flow the current to the car battery for some minutes, the car battery stored the whole current that was flowing, and when you start your car its will be alright
it's ultra sketchy but i think it probably won't in most cases, since the batteries of the cars this is done to is very low and therefore takes a lot of current, so the voltage of the drill battery will probably drop a lot, and the voltage across the ecu should be fine
the voltage of you car battery 12.6 normally (who knows what voltage if its dead) and the drill battery (20v) fully charged will average out to around 15-16volts and most cars will have over voltage protection, id be more worried about ruining the tool battery especially if its a cheaper brand one, name brand good ones will have overcurrent protection. but like mentioned elsewhere this is a emergency method.
12 Volt Drill Battery Jump Start: th-cam.com/video/YC1s0mUsq2w/w-d-xo.html
I had a dead car and no car to jump it with. Tried this and it worked great. Saved me a lot of time today. THX!
I've done this several times...even built a special set if jumper cables that have jumper clamps on one end and connects to a 20v battery on the other
It definitely work for me when I tried it in a pinch!

I tried it and it did not work! I also lost one battery by getting the polarity wrong first time round! Unlucky me. So you do not try it!
So people shouldn’t do it because you weren’t able to. Lol.
Orrrrr you just do it right idk tho
I've tried on a 74Ah car battery, that killed a cell from drill battery, no way to recover.
when you say turn the car off before disconnect the battery to remove the wire the problem with that is you won't be able to turn on the engine as the vehicle needs to be driven for a certain time to charge the battery completely so instead i would just put something like electrical tape around the exposing copper wires and some more tape to mount it so it doesn't swing around just until the alternator has had enough time to charge the battery

That doesn't make sense, they use thick jump start cables for a reason. Those wires are too thin to start a car.
Tried it. Didn’t work. Somebody came by and got a jump. Still didn’t work. Ah the cheap battery in my work truck had finally and suddenly given up the ghost. $130 at Walmart got me back on the road. Was wondering why I was only getting 4 volts. Maybe that’s a sign, dunno.
This is a bot comment, don’t listen to it
Does it damage either battery
It's in the video description: "WARNING ! This method could potentially cause damage to your cordless battery or even to your vehicles electrical system. Only use this method in an emergency and if you have no other options available to start your vehicle"
Worled like a charm. Used a 20 v battery
Lidl drill battery no less :)
😄👍
Everyone here inside a working truck with a dead battery?
That must be one of them easy start cars because I need 600 cranking amps to start my car that don’t work on real vehicles
Back in my truck mechanic days i had made a little 3d printed doodad that took a pair of Milwaukee batteries to jump start big rigs that has been sitting in the lot too long. Saved my the trouble of dragging the heavy battery cart all the way out there. The real kicker is the batteries were wired in parallel of course, and most of the time one would get the job done just fine.
Its can work because the tool battery flow the current to the car battery for some minutes, the car battery stored the whole current that was flowing, and when you start your car its will be alright
I tried this and my battery caught on fire. There goes a good 6aph high output battery
I get sparks when trying this
Make sure you're connecting the wires to the correct terminals
Parkside the best!!!
It's good in an emergency, but I wouldn't do it all the time. Feeding 20v through a 12v system is risky buisness.
Agreed. I would only consider doing this in an emergency situation and, ideally, with a 14v battery if you have one available
U need lifters or push rods not a diy jumpbox. Lmao jk thank you for the helpful video
lol 😀
I certainly wouldn't risk burning the car's electronics with a 20 Volt battery. The electronics are for 15 Volt at most!
Is that a diesel or just a Peugeot?
It's a 1.4 petrol engine
Worked!! Got me out of a hole I used 2p coins ..my 18v battery is probably fucked now lol 🇮🇪👍
Very clever, hopefully not 👍
It'll always be fine as the car system is only 12v.... However in modern cars, careful of circuitry boards ..
Did your wires get hot mine melted
Did you have them the right way around ?
@@screwsnutsandbolts absolutely yes sir if they wasn't it would of sparked like a mofo lol makita 6ah

Getting a parasitic drain it's killing me lucky it's a 2005 about ready for the heap crying rn
do not do it .you will burn the car computer(ECU) due to voltage over 16 v.
I was wondering....
it's ultra sketchy but i think it probably won't in most cases, since the batteries of the cars this is done to is very low and therefore takes a lot of current, so the voltage of the drill battery will probably drop a lot, and the voltage across the ecu should be fine
the voltage of you car battery 12.6 normally (who knows what voltage if its dead) and the drill battery (20v) fully charged will average out to around 15-16volts and most cars will have over voltage protection, id be more worried about ruining the tool battery especially if its a cheaper brand one, name brand good ones will have overcurrent protection. but like mentioned elsewhere this is a emergency method.
