    You can't because of the molding. The middle blade is the polarisation key. It is placed in slightly nearer to one side in the 18v

    properties tie you down for a very long time though. Personally, I dislike dealing with tenants rents, maintenance, refurb etc on top of taxes.

    They have the same physical size but the polarisation key makes sure you can't use them in the wrong adapter

    a fast charger is an attractive proposition but should we warn potential takers that fast charging accelerates the ageing of your battery?

    don't forget the issue of public liability whenever you put something in the market. If the bike battery sets fire to their garage, you may be jointly liable.

    so I thought...There are actually millions of tool batteries languishing in garages.

    It's free from the point of view of the customer. He already has the battery in his lawnmower

    Those tool batteries are made with chemistry to allow fast charge.

    Battery upgrade

    Shanshan makes the case but not the pack inside. You need to test the pins with a tester before you drop the battery in.

    Battery upgrade

    Yes, it's straight forward but you need to make sure that the positive and negative pins are the same.

    Yes, I did. There are dewalt, makita etc the Chinese company I contacted has similar adapters for other batteries. it would be much better to make my old mold for the downtube on the long run.

    You can pull enough to climb a small hill but not for long. On the flat, you can go up to 5-6 miles with that battery. In the previous post, I meant the Bosch battery adapter, not the Bosch battery.

    not that I know of but then again, I have not searched the net for it in the last two years. This is my adapter which I 3D printed: I was going to use a ready made charger box similar to yours but they wanted me to buy at least 500 pcs so I designed my own.

    For years now, they don't spark anymore. I'll make a video to show you later. Also, quality of connectors has improved over the year. I have not seen a single damaged charging socket in normal use.

    Jacks are easy to use. My HP laptop has a 19.5V 45W charger and uses a jack. The current is about the same but such accident would not happen because I don't have a key for my laptop. An intelligent protection placed inside the BMS and the charger against reverse current is a better solution.

    It's true. I agree that there should be reverse current protection. it's meant to run up to 2A-3A only.
