    Latest progress on cell upgrade for Bosch battery.

    It is quite easy to do. Lots of matika power tool packs have chip inside on the BMS that after 5 failed charges shuts the pack down (perhaps one cells goes below 2.6v for example) the chip bricks the pack forever - even if you change all the cells out for brand new ones it will never charge...

    Electric Gloves

    Dad has a pair of Warmawear electric gloves that he uses for skiing. He really suffers with cold hands but says these work a treat. Only issue is they use 9v batteries which last an hour or two at best so its very expensive. Cheap 9v are a waste of time and last about 5 mins A quick look on...

    Need some advice recovering some batteries

    I've been randomly walking into laptop repair shops and asking for old batteries for quite a while now I have only ever twice recovered cells of under 2000mah The trick is in finding those shops that have contracts with offices. They quite often seem to replace batteries at the drop of hat (...

    Need some advice recovering some batteries

    You won't be able to charge using IMAX or similar I don't think - it will just sound the low voltage alert I have used one of d8veh tricks successfully on 18650 cells salvaged from laptop batteries. I never try if at 0 volts though His trick is to use a charged cell to charge the very low cell...
