Great build! I didn't even think at all that the design was totally homemade! Neat sourcing of materials! Thanks for sharing.
Nice job. For those who don't have a broken tool for the battery base, Dewalt makes the DCA1820 which should work also.
ebay also has 3d printed battery recievers with +/- leads so you don't neet to canibalize a tool.

Now that was worth watching man ! ! ! Great video, lighting was good, even, no harsh shadows. Wish I could build one for myself. I AM a DIY guy but, don't know alot about electricity. Too bad DeWalt doesn't make one as good as you made for yourself ;)
I built something just like this and fried the circuit board because of a lack of ventilation. When I figure out how to keep it cool I’ll repost and maybe even make a video. It ran just about 20min before it was cooked. I basically built a small oven. Super bright with great light tho!
I'm betting this one did the exact same.
Just.... perfect!!! From Greece
Damn I wish I was as creative as you....well worth watching my man!!! well done!!!
With this helpful informative video I converted a rechargable 2500lm led light from walmart to use makita batteries, I am a drywall finisher so this so this light has taken some serious abuse! I even dropped it from a 6ft scaffold and it still works! And its exposed to fine drywall dust, I've been using it for at least 6months and no issues at all. The makita bms board does it job, and I installed a drok buck down Converter from amazon and I believe that's even more added protection, since it has a overheat shutoff chip. And not to mention the rechargable led light from walmart also has a overheat shutoff chip. The led light is also a combination of aluminum and plastic reinforced with some kind of heat resistant fiber. Safe to say, this little 2500lm light can take the heat, and I get 5hrs worth of light from a 5ah battery I will post a video on the construction of the led light soon!
Awesome i wanna see it! 🤓
Very nice video, and a good quality one too, congrats on your first video and good luck with your channel
Thank you !! :)
Excellent job!! Stumbled on this videowhile searching for ways to convert 20 volt to 12 volt so I can utilize DeWalt batteries to power interior work trailer lights. Now I'll be making an additional light to have for actually using on the job site. Thank You!
I would have never guessed that was diy. Looks like an official product =O Great work. =D
This is a very, very nice job : simple and clever. Extremely nice result as well, I like the way you worked, with eveything being clean, net and precise.
5 stars realisation and superb video. Really like it very much !
Greetings from Belgium!
@toolboss who needs a 799$ Dewalt stand light that only works with Flexvolt. Dammmm this is a ''bright'' idea, think im going to build it this winter for a fun project. Skoukum light on the cheep
Super Impressive, my friend!!!!!!
That Video JAMMED!!! (i got up out of my recliner and started dancing...)
Man, this is awesome and exactly what i need!!!
How much would you charge to make one of these for me?
Great concept. I just wish that things were slowed down a bit with some more narration and a little less music.
Thanks William for that quality and detailed comment. This video is 3 years old, I need to build more light as this was some nice DIY, but at the time of making theses videos, I was not speaking in English really well so it was easier for me to just put music. But now I'm really better to speak in English , it is just hard to get rid of this accent! 🤣 Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment, new projects coming soon! 😉
this will not last long without proper cooling, I put my left nut this gets hot as fire and will cook its self to death within a few hours. you did a great job on assembly and design
My Turtle Beach headset didnt offer enough volume for the epoc music. Great video 10/10
The best thing I've seen in a while is usi g imperial measurment, and putting metric aswell, that should be a requirement, because personally I know how to use both, but it's alot more helpful just to add both of them.would be a good idea to put magnets on the feet, have seen worklights that had magnets instead of those runner feet, and had a very thin rubber layer, could stick it on the bonnet(hood) when open and work.
Very useful video! However, I'm wondering how long that light can be turned on? That plastic container and it's cover will not melt after 1h of using?
Theses led's panel don't get very hot, i can touch the cover no problem. However, this plastic container can handle the heat of the dishwasher, so far so good ;) thanks for your comment
it is definitely not for professionals like me but 100 marks for such a great effort. What a beautiful piece of art 👌
awesome video bro, I will have to give it a try at building one myself, I always use my 19.2 craftsman fluorescent lamp because that thing brightens up any room, but what you just built is even brighter, keep up the good work.
thanks alot !! you could do this with any of your 19.2v used tools ;)
Damn I want one
got all my components today :D but one thing struck me. is it the batteries or the tool that contains a limiter so u dont run out the battery completely?
i mean like when i use my impact drill, and the battery goes low, the machine(or is it the battery :D) stops so i can not completely empty the battery.
Makita 3.0mAh battery im talking about.
how did this build go? About to convert a old double job light in this style.
What about cooling of the led? Is the metal base plate enough?
Not sire if it last long , too much heat not enough heat sink to cool down leds. , run it for 20 min than check temperature , ur housing prob. Will melt.
So far, I have no problem, and I have it on for periods of an hour or so without a problem. Yes it gets hot but the container is dishwasher safe so it does not melt but yes it's hot. And so far no LED has burned. Fingers crossed 😏
SEB TECH DIY is the switch a single throw or double i need to know to finish it or does it matter
Just use an old aluminum heatsink for the smd led mounting so that all the heat will transfer to the aluminum. Im sure it will last long
hey man, loved the video. i have been trying to get this working but can't. and dont know what im doing wrong. i have the lights all wired up. and i have the board wired up but you dont really show what wires to wire where, you do it so fast. you put not enough time showing how to properly wire it. can you help. would love help on discord.
Very creative man love it, u can sell this put in a link for us to buy
I need one of these built as well
been shooting around the idea myself, doesnt dewalt have a 20v attachment where you dont need to cut off a drill to accomplish this?
Great video
can you post link for led and wire harnesses.
Thinking about building something like this very soon - any tips or changes you would make now that you have had yours for a few years?
wuooooo what a good work brother why put it on sale on eBay and amazon
asombroso
when i completed my own light i thought of the following. both the makita(wich i used) and the dewalt machines have built in protection not to drain the battery completely, could it be possible to incorporate that into the light? if so, what is needed. my batteryholder i stripped from a handheld makita light (wich i assume has the type of circuit board. not sure how it all works though :D)
I converted a rechargable led light from walmart to use makita batteries, I am a drywall finisher so this so this light has taken some serious abuse! I even dropped it from a 6ft scaffold and it still works! And its exposed to fine drywall dust, I've been using it for at least 6months and no issues at all. The makita bms board does it job, and I installed a drok buck down Converter from amazon and I believe that's even more added protection, since it has a overheat shutoff chip. And not to mention the rechargable led light from walmart also has a overheat shutoff chip.
Для фонарика нужна одна единственная мелочь-убитый 887 импакт!!! А так вааще ....Толково.
Awesome, I'll buy you one for sure, how much do you charge? Shipping USA. THANKS
I have the battery, could you build one for me?
Nice job. Did you use a low voltage cut off switch at all? Those batteries dont have one built in.
the batterys have one build bms inside
Can I use an 18v drill, will that be compatible with all the other components
Nice
Bad asss
I shudder to think what the LEDs feel like being baked inside a small plastic container. Should've used a metal one with thermal interface between the LEDs and the metal.
Yes, they are on a metal sheet, but all the heat is still radiated into the thermally insulated container.
Whats the run time on your battery
Clever
How long does a 20 volt battery last
How long will this stay on until the battery goes out?
Good afternoon. And how is the battery protected from deep discharge? can this mess up the battery?
Hi!
Charge your batteries when you drop from two bars to one. Charge your batteries before that are completely dead. Even though you may still have 15% - 25% remaining when you hit one bar, you’ll significantly extend the lifespan of it by swapping it out sooner. Theses batteries are pretty tough, if by accident you over discharge the battery, it is still possible to "revive" it by boosting your battery with another battery pack. But again, when you drop to 1 bar, swap the battery with a fresh one. ;)
looks damn good. What's the ballpark run time with that xr battery? Also subscribed
Not sure about the runtime i should make a test soon :) thanks for subs ^_^
The 20V Tools that use this type of Lithium battery have the battery protection circuitry inside the tools, not the battery, and as such the user of this must be careful not to over discharge the battery. How to do protect against this?
@@rick9083 you can add a "Battery Low Voltage Automatic Cut off Switch Controller Protection Module" to the circuit , find it on e-bay
No sure about plastic melting with all that heat.
This super nice you can sell me one ??
Can you give a link to the exact step down for me
He links a search in the description. It is a generic step down that is sold by a hundred different Chinese sellers and they are all identical (probably come from the same factory)
Depending on which LED array you purchase..you may not need one. (for example, you can buy an LED 'off road' light assembly that needs 9vdc to 30vdc).
I need five of them, how much? :)
How much to build me one?
nice build, too bad I'm too lazy))) man , but using Kawasaki drill was too much)
What if I don't have that battery
You can do this with any old tool you have. The DC-DC adapter recuce the voltage from the battery you use to 12v ;)
SEB TECH DIY cómo puedo Aser una qué partes ocupo
How much to build me one....... seriously.
Charles Benoit would also buy one
Maldición pero que buen trabajo pensé que era original
Gracias
Very nice. But too much work.
I need a few of these do you sell these sent you a message on Instagram
Hey! Sorry no can't sell these but anyway it's an old projects i made 3 years ago, still have it but since dewalt has now official flood leds i use it less than before but still love it/ XD
very nice selle me one
Would you sell this? Not kidding.
Thank you for asking, but I only made one and I often use it especially for the lighting of my videos. I can not get rid of it, but maybe I'll be able to create another for a giveaway I'll let you know if it happens. 😏
SEB TECH DIY that would be incredibly helpful for me. I'm finishing basements
$300 if you make me 2
