Designed/made by the qualified carpenter and for the real tradesman, 

we are not like those profit driven people who don't look after our fellow workers, 

it either solves a problem, or goes into the rubbish bin.

1x Makita 18v Battery DIY Adaptor/Base Plate. 12 AWG wires that eliminate the capacity bottleneck so you could use at any application without worrying the current load capacity.

Buy with confidence. It's injection molding, so it's as smooth and as tough as your original battery case. As being asked many times can you add a switch, and now here is the switch.

I only use the thickest wire available 12awg, so you don't need to worry about the capacity load, as long as the battery can take the load, there will be no bottlenecks from the adaptor so you could focus on your project.

Due to the nature of this product (a DIY product that offers you 100% freedom of what to to with it), there are several heads up I'd still like to remind you before use:

• once battery is on, it's live. I know you won't short the two poles intentionally, but if it ever happens, it always triggered by accident, so please handle in a safe way that even accidence can't short the two poles.
• please always be aware of the continuous current discharging capacity of your batteries, i.e. thick battery has two group of cells hence will inherently has double capacity of that of a thin battery, so you would like to take that into account.
• please always be aware that lithium battery will be wrecked if they are discharged to zero. You, as the user, are the person to take care of the low voltage protection. For a 18v battery pack, the fully charged voltage is around 20.8v, and a safe and efficient threshold for discharging could be 15.5v (at this point around 90% of its valid capacity should have been discharged). Up to your application, you could set this higher at 15.8v, or can go as low as 13.8v (almost 100% discharged, but still safe).
• And a tip for it, is that if you are wiring lights, some lights do come with a valid working range. So if you choose carefully and end up with using a lights that has a working range from 15v to say 40v, then it automatically solve the low voltage concern.
• Or, if your application is on occasional basis, that it's only used a short while every now and then. You could ignore adding the low voltage handling, simply just keep an eye on the battery's fuel gauge and don't let it go below 1 light, always charge when it needs to.

Now I've launched my own website, www.yourtoolbox.com.au, you could find same products there, sometimes with slightly lower price simply because it saves me some running cost vs. ebay. So again everything here is as straightforward as dealing your fellow worker, not some pure profit seeking vendor...
