DIY AC battery adapter for Ridgid

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to DIY an AC Ridgid power adapter using a 24V 16A output lighting power supply with a Ridgid battery shell I have from a dead battery.  I'd just connect the 24V power supply outputs to the Ridgid 18V battery connectors.

 

Would this work?  Using 24V to drive 18V Ridgid power tools/shop vacs would be ok won't burn the tool?

 

This would be real handy when I need to run a power tool/cordless shop vac when my Ridgid battery is out.

 

Thanks
